In economics, as opposed to story telling, if something is important it produces significant output...
That must be hard to swallow, this flashy, lazy La-La-Land produces $200B more than hardworking, down-to-earth Midwesterners
You may revise your opinion about who is flashy and lazy in this country...
Yes, La-La land produces $200 billion more than Chicago...yet it lacks a financial institution to make it stand out in global economy...thats why onlyNew York and Chicago dominate the markets from this side of the world.

LOL. "It lacks a financial institution to make it stand out int he world"
Buddy, when you generate $700B you stand out anyway. If LA was a separate nation it would be world's 17th largest economy.
Case closed. I think everybody understands this now.

Buddy, when you generate $700 billion in an economy where there is no important financial activity like those of NYC and Chicago...then maybe thats where LA's downfall is.

You realize this was gibberish, don't you? $700B is $700B no matter if a result of financial dealings, peanut growing or aluminum can recycling.
In economics everything, including impact and importance is measured by money. Everything has a value.
In you opinion LA may not be as important as Chicago but to economists $200B Chicago shortfall speaks the most.

I come back from my day out in the city and you are still on here...arguing...miserably.
Get a life.
I'm grabbing a 2-liter from the 7-11, making me a rum n coke, and heading back out to party.
What do you suggest? Ignorance is bliss. LA used to have an exchange and it did not survive. Great minds are a luxury thing in the La-La land these days.

Facts are presented, backed by financial specialist, and people dispute the credibility of the studies instead...with what a high school degree in Finance??
Does this not sound like the most ignorant banter ever to anybody else?

LOL The La-La Land produces $200B more than Chicago, has a larger population and lower crime rates. Try harder
I guess it's good that by advocatusdiavoli's main talking point, Chicago's more important than pretty much every city in the world save for NYC, Tokyo, LA, and Paris. I guess it's some kind of compliment.

I realize the only thing you have to talk about is 'exchanges' but its getting kind of embarrassing.
What else can you tell us?
