Large amount of capital is invested in humans if the pyramid is wide at the bottom.

Once the pyramid has a bulge t its waist, we extract the result of that capital invested.

That means once we enter the demographic window, even lousy governments can't stop the economic growth. We have now started to harvest decades of capital invested in those young people who are no productive.

The only hope for OECD countries is for us to grow as fast as we can to avoid them return to the insignificant they came from.

You're alluding to monetized capital. I am talking about real capital. Land, Embrapa, subsalt oil. Fresh water reserves, tradition in animal husbandry and a population right into the demographic window.

You are talking about 1947 I am talking about 2007, 2017, 2027 and 2047.
