Chart of the Day: US vs. the Rest of the G7

Bar chart with America US states and average in blue and other countries in orange

Today’s Chart of the Day comes from Visual Capitalist showing the annual production per person of America’s richest states vs. the rest of the G7 Countries, a group of the seven most industrialized counties in the world.  

Politics aside on which is the richest state, the US average is $81,600, which far exceeds the $54,900 of the highest G7 Country of Canada. Even more surprising is our lowest state, Mississippi, is still higher than UK, France, Italy, and Japan.

An enduring testimony of Winston Churchill’s statement in 1947 that, “Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all those others that have been tried.”
