It is a pure economic fact that man cannot live by Gross National Product GNP only. The premise of the above statement is that GNP per see measures the affluence of a nation but not indication of wealth appropriation among the citizenry. It does not show the level of socio-economic welfare of the not does it represent the effect of the population or other factors on the economy of a nation.
Population can be a fountain of joy as well as source of agony and distress for a nation. It stands as a nation’s asset and equally constitutes its liability.
