I keep thinking the key reason our country doesn’t improve is that we have to live with this ridiculous heat.

It is a particularly hot summer. But after going through one real snowstorm, I think I prefer a couple months of this heat to two months of frozen hell.
@roytang Which country close to the equator is doing well? Singapore, but what else?
@switchfollows think about the average location of well-off countries: japan, north america, europe…all well north of the equator
@roytang hong kong’s not too far. Australia’s doing well for a south hemisphere country. so is new zealand
@switchfollows stop trying to debunk my scientific analysis! also, we are much hotter than hong kong
@roytang Saudi’s pretty hot, and they seem to be well off. :p
@switchfollows so, let’s change it to “because we are hot and have no oil”
