Dependency Ratio as an Economic Gauge in Developing Nations
The piece argues that a nation's economic progress is not just measured by per capita income or GNP but by its dependency ratio.

It cites Metropolitan Life data and contrasts regional figures from Europe, South America, Asia, and North America, noting that in most industrialized countries the older dependents outnumber the younger, while in the developing world the burden falls heavily on youth requiring schools, jobs, and housing.
