Is there a point when you stop trying to clutch at straws in order to salvage your increasingly indefensible position?

The well being of a country is the well being of it's economy

Actually, there is an almost symbiotic relationship between the economic well-being of a country and its stability, democratic processes and other structural elements.

You believe those six trends are only tangential to the economy

Now this is where your capacity to comprehend the English language is clearly deficient.

The report indicated that there were six trends that represented the basis for the conclusion that Pakistan would be a failed state by 2015. These trends will inevitably affect the economy - assuming that the CIA analysis is correct. But to say the CIA report was projecting the economic outlook for Pakistan in 2015 shows how incapable you are of following simple sequences of sentences and related concepts.

Your inability to comprehend simple sentences combined with your limited capacity to express yourself in writing demonstrates that the deficiencies in our educational system are not of recent vintage.
