    The industrial revolution really had a huge affect on gdp around the world. That solved the issues of famine within india. But will probably lead to more with climate change now.

      My god man, just sign up for some history classes at your nearest university. Or maybe just listen to some podcast or something. This is just horribly insensitive, and I don’t even think you know why it is so.

        The gdp of the west exploded because of the industrial revolution. To claim that wasn’t the largest force for changes in gdp is madness. It separated gdp so directly from labour that gdp stopped being so heavily related to population.
