I don't understand economy. I think it's just made up numbers
Why are Austria and Finland rich when they produce absolutely nothing and just print money, while Congo and Nigeria are poor, when they have so many resources?
Dominicans live on the exact same tiny island as Haitians, but they're 7 times richer
Germans make 3 times more than Poles a few km across the border, who work the same job
It all makes no sense

Colonialism unironically
Capitalism unironically
There are lots of internationally famous Austrian manufacturers
Steyr
Tyrolit
KTM
Glock
AKG
Same thing really
>Why are Austria and Finland rich when they produce absolutely nothing
services plus trade with other rich countries, good management, high tech industries like pharmaceutics
>while Congo and Nigeria are poor, when they have so many resources?
they don't extract them on their own because they are too dumb and dont have technology, they just lease the resources for pennies to foreing companies who extract them
>Dominicans live on the exact same tiny island as Haitians, but they're 7 times richer
idk what happens there
>Germans make 3 times more than Poles a few km across the border, who work the same job
they have waaay better management, their government actually allows people to do business instead of bombarding them with milions of different weird taxes and regulations, they have better technology which means that less work is required for the same result
because congo and haiti are lawless dictatorial shitholes, lawless shitholes are bad for business even if you have all the ressources
Finland and Austria are not lawless shitholes and are integrated in trade unions, they have a lot more credit for businessmen
poland used to be a dictatorial commie shithole not allowing business to happen, this why you have bad wages
>they have waaay better management, their government actually allows people to do business instead of bombarding them with milions of different weird taxes and regulations, they have better technology which means that less work is required for the same result
>services
Thats what OP is asking about I think, it does feel a bit overbloated
Explain why you're rich then.
Go to school bro

there's always gonna be the bitch and the man in control through history

Cute Apu
Exploiter and exploitee
The problem with capitalism is its zero sum someone has to lose no matter the way you stack it
Useless eaters(western world)
Are fed by the contributors(third world and China)
Capitalism isn't fair dude. It's barely a step above feudalism.
>fix someones bathroom sink and ask for 100 euro because you know that he is rich
>go to a restaurant for a 50 euro meal because you are rich now too
>restaurant owner is rich so his suppliers are asking for more money
Ok, Zhang
>Why are Austria and Finland rich when they produce absolutely nothing
Austria makes bikes and Finland makes phones
>Congo and Nigeria are poor, when they have so many resources?
They don't control those resources
>Dominicans live on the exact same tiny island as Haitians, but they're 7 times richer
Haitians had to pay mega gibs to France and also suffered from natural disasters
Yeah but if the bathroom guy got rich by stock trading or something, then the entire economy is a bit artificial
Finland and Austria are only rich because their colonial empires exploited the 3rd world
classic thirdie cope
>we are the eternal victim of firstie, please give gibs
fuck you, firsties should make these people eat a nuke
