Which is why it's explained in economic courses beyond your baseless ideas that there are better models to calculate standards of living than GDP. But you'd never know that. Because you know nothing of economics.

Dude you are not going to get better results by looking at further cherry-picked statistics from first world countries. The standard of living in the first world is collapsing because of finance capital and economics as a science there exists to cope about it.
