Explain why Hong Kong has experienced faster economic growth than the United States
What will be an ideal response?
Hong Kong chose to devote a greater proportion of its available resources to the production of capital than the United States. This allowed Hong Kong to grow at a faster rate than the United States. By foregoing consumption and producing a greater proportion of capital goods over the last few decades, Hong Kong was able to achieve output per person equal to 94 percent of that in the United States.
