How is India's economy better than Iran's economy? I see them both as third world countries with many many years to go to fix their problems. They are many years behind the West in terms of overall living. I see India as having much more poor people and a very slim middle class. Sure India has a section of their people who are educated, and have great jobs and are doing wonders. What about the other 80% percent?

Sultan:

You shouldn't post here on this board with your Jewish comments you made to me the other day. If anyone on this board has hate it is you. You are the one who said Iranian women are sluts and that my mom is one because she doesn't cover her head (yeah ok..).

AIMSTER WOW, your repeating over and over. Noone is going to deny Iranians make more than Indians as individuals. India's economy is growing at 7% per year and millions are being lifted out of poverty each year. Majority of Indians are poor. That is a fact.

Who said that India's standard of living is better than France's? im stunned where you got that from

India's economy is better than Iran's. This has nothing to do with education or standard of living

Thanks for sh*tting on my thread. What the hell is up with quoting the last 10 replies? All I really wanted was input on India and its future growth. Maybe not to much Westernization, but regardless how in the sam hell did this turn into India vs. Iran ????

Iran's GDP is growing at over 6% a year.

Yes, but Iran's is growing at 6%+ as well. The same thing could be said about Iran's economy. Many are being lifted out of poverty.

No I was saying that India's GDP > France's GDP so one should not suggest that a larger GDP means the country's standard of living is better.

That's why I compare the two. They are both growing fast. Iran and India both have grown at the same time. Iran and India 10 years ago were much poorer and were both having problems.

I'm not saying Indians make less than Iranians. I'm saying 200 million Indians probably are wealthy and educated which is a Lot of people, but India has 1.1+ billion people. Iranians don't make that much and I'm sure Indians don't make that much either.

India has a higher population of educated and working class, but they still have the problem of having a large population. That 200 million can help India out a lot, but having a large population can also bring it down.

Iran has had sanctions since 1979. The UN can never slap sanctions on Iran since China made it clear it will not allow any vote to pass. They will veto it.

well this post is much more thoughtful than your previous posts.

Im curious who said larger GDP means better standard of living. And Indians do make less than Iranians, in their respective countries.

another thing to point out, India has the worlds largest middle class and is growing

EU is Iran's major trading partner. If they *slap* on the sanctions, Iran's economy is toast. Iran does 90% of trade with EU

This won't happen. Germany, France have very close connections to Iran. Even England has relations with Iran. The United States is the one who keeps pushing for sanctions while the EU nations want to work things out with Iran.
This talk of sanctions has been going on for months. It just keeps getting better and better for Iran as they work things out with the EU while the US calls Iran liars.

Also 90% is an over the top figure. Most of Iran's exports are to the M.E while most of Iran's imports are from the EU (mainly Turkey which is not the EU).

close to 90%, happy now?

the govt. of Iran are liars, their intention is to get nukes, they can try to play the "peaceful nuke reactor for energy purposes" card all they want. thats the reason for Iran copieing N. Korea's missle designs which allowed them to build the various versions of the shahab missles
