[@Madhattersinjeans]

@@EconomicsExplained My guess as to why it's taking so long is that the PM's simply don't want to engage in brexit. It's definitely a bad decision, and the House of Commons (and probably Lords too) were something like 3/4s in favour of remaining in the EU including Theresa May, so the politicians in areas that voted the majority to leave have to toe the line between what they want and representing the public. By kicking the can down the road long enough, eventually the public will get a second referendum or parliament who have a majority to remain in the EU and thus avoid the constitutional crisis it has brought about. As much as it's incredibly annoying to hear about it all the time, the alternative is considerably worse should the UK actually try and leave the EU. By just waiting out the current extremist reactionaries to die down, a remain result becomes more probable. And I think even the EU would be okay with that, admittedly under protest. It's already sent strong messages to other parties in EU countries that had a leave platform to suddenly change their minds. By revealing how costly and frankly dangerous leaving the EU is to the Eurosceptics it silences their support a little. That's not to say people who vote to remain in the EU like it, but reforming the EU from within is far more powerful than just abandoning the project as a whole. Nor is this to say the EU doesn't have it's issues in it's own right, in terms of representation, funding and other issues it still has a long way to go. But leaving the whole thing is clearly not the answer.

[@jynexe3056]

@@Madhattersinjeans So what you're saying is that you want to overturn the democratically chosen idea because you dont think it's a good idea?

[@Pretency]

@Kaiser Wilhelm II It's the other way around no? We can't get out because the way to leave is no deal, but everyone accepts the danger that poses. Parliament don't want a deal. Remainers don't want a deal. Brexiteers don't really want a deal. Now we have a situation where Brexiteers are literally doing everything they can to force us out. The bullying is coming from the hard right, in words and deeds.

[@nelsonbaro7996]

@@Madhattersinjeans I agree with what you said about not leaving the EU. However, I might be mistaken here and if I am, please help me understand, but didn't the United Kingdom lose their chance to stay in the EU about nearly a year ago. The EU gave them the ultimatum to stay, but they didn't even consider it. Now, I don't see how they could possibly stay even if they wanted to.

[@florianm9693]

@@alchemist6819 in a developing country people earn less, but the cost of living is also less, so to be able to compare the financial situations of people across the globe you have to use PPP. For example: In the US a worker earns on average 40k USD and an apple costs 10 USD to buy. You could buy 4k apples with an income of one year. In Germany the average worker may earn 20k€ a year and an apple costs 1€ so you could buy 20k apples with your income of one year.

Don't forget about KPop for contributing to South Korea's economy, hehe

[@quangduyinh9218]

KPop even makes less money than Japanese adult industry.

[@Jay-Bco]

Soft Power is not all about money. Plus Kpop does not take large portion of Korean economy.

[@김진일-f6b]

You don't know that K pop songs are not so popular in South Korea. Those songs are not fit for Korean sentiments based on Eastern culture.

[@trttrtson4463]

I thought the video would be of the best economies, not the biggest. Could you do a video of the best economies cause that would be more fun to watch. With natural resources and population there are underdogs, I would like to see what countries has done the best with what they’ve got. This doesn’t mean you can’t start with much and not be the best but it would give a perspective of what countries has done their people better than could be asked for.

Much love from the Philippines! Also I'm surprised you found stock footage of Manila that made it look relatively decent; the city itself is a bona fide shithole. P.S. yes, i know the stock footage was in Makati, but that's part of the greater Metro Manila area so it still counts.

I thought, that EU have bigger GDP than US, even without UK Can we even count EU as 1 HUGE economy?

[@AngloSupreme]

No to both.

[@TheECSH]

USA's is still bigger

[@squeaksquawk4255]

The USA still has the highest GDP at $20.54 trillion in 2018. However, EU is second at roughly $18.8 trillion, with China in third with $13.61 trillion

[@nightshade5145]

Yes the EU, including UK, was actually the single largest economy in the world. For example in 2017 they accounted for 18,5% of world economy, compared to China (16,4%) and US (16,3%) according to ICP. However, if you exclude the UK (2,5%) they drop just below the others, and since UK is leaving I'm guessing that is more common in general calculations

[@beback_]

I don't think they're as closely integrated as US States are to be considered an economic monolith.
