• TITLE: GDP Alone Predicts Income and Survival

  AUTHORS: Gordon Bechtel, Timothy Bechtel

  KEYWORDS: Bilinear OLS Regression, Ghandian Economics, Gross Global Income (GGI) per Capata, Life Expectancy at Birth, Pandemic Threats to Lives and Economies

  JOURNAL NAME: Open Journal of Social Sciences, Vol.9 No.1, January 29, 2021

  ABSTRACT: This article generalizes Bechtel and Bechtel (2020a, 2020b). The results in these papers induce our hypotheses that GDP predicts income and survival. These hypotheses are confirmed at the global level and we invite the G20 to confirm them at the national level as well. Our regressions show that global life expectancy and global gross income per capata can be predicted from GDP alone without survey sampling, questionnaire interrogation, probabilistic inference, or significance testing. In view of trade-war and COVID-19 shocks to the world economy,international attention to GDP’s life-saving effects is now compelling.
