This global health visionary has discovered a powerful new way to communicate complex data about the world. He co-founded Gapminder, whose remarkable interactive graphs help deliver profound insights about global trends and dispel myths about the "developing world". With the drama and urgency of a sportscaster, he debunks a few of those myths in this presentation delivered at the 2006 Technology, Entertainment, Design (TED) Conference.

If the third world is so great then why do so many people try to escape?

I'm from a large family in Green-Latin America, and I think that maybe, WE aren't experiencing simultaneously the same things with the Developed World, because, WE'D RATHER understand and see things in a completely different way; clearly. Is everything coming to a failure?!

I wouldn't be surprised if that was accurate. But that's no reason to assume that it's got anyhting to do with genetics, which some (many) would like to imply. The africans share a lot more in common with each other than black skin and curly hair. Many of them live under the rule of a despot masked as a modern or semi-modern government. Most africans identify with a minor tribal background, rather than a national identity. a majority of africans are farmers... the list goes on.

60% of the workforce in all of africa is in agriculture. I've been there, that's all they do , jackass. They farm. That is their primary economic output. To imply that the africans are dependent on white farmers is blatant ignorance. However, famine is much more common in africa than anywhere else. This is due in part to social issues (africa is heavily diverse in heritage) and environmental issues. (africa is split by the equator, weather is more unpridictalbe)

the 'nwo' has nothing to do with it. it's a social problem.

You ignore the subjectivity of IQ tests. I've taken several and each said beforehand they are not the only measure of intelligence. Further, familiarity with the format and style of questions on an IQ test (through, for example, western-style schooling), increases results. Many Africans may be unfamilar with the type of question and format of the test, which would negatively affect results. We simply don't know enough about how these IQ tests were done to know if what you say is really Truth.

The NWO doesn't want africa to develope because they know of the huge potential growth in every area of life would overtake the rest of the world really quickly. just a though.
