U.S. Metropolitan Economics Compared To Equivalent Nations
Very interesting but of course on a per capita basis there isn't much equal in these comparisons! The 3 cities listed for Los Angles have a population of 4.6MM while Turkey has a population of 75MM.
How ironic is it that he compared Washington DC and Argentina? They actually have a lot in common. They both generate similar GDP. They both spend far more than they have. They both have no difficulty manipulating the truth or breaking promises. And they both consider the laws of the land something to be twisted into whatever suits them best. If only Hillary had been elected they'd both have female Presidents too!
