Why is economic growth important? Why could the difference between a 2.5 percent and a 3 percent annual growth rate be a great significance over several decades?
Economic growth means a higher standard of living, provided population does not grow even faster. And if it does, then economic growth is even more important to maintain the current standard of living. Economic growth allows the lessening of poverty even without an outright redistribution of wealth.
If population is growing at 2.5 percent a year-and it is in some of the poorest nations-then a 2.5 percent growth rate of real GDP means no change in living standards. A 3.0 percent growth rate means a gradual rise in living standards. For a wealthy nation, such as the United States, with a GDP in the neighborhood of $10 trillion, the 0.5 percentage point difference between 2.5 and 3.0 percent amounts to $50 billion a year, or more than $150 per person per year.
Using the "Rule of 70," it would take 28 years for output to double with a 2.5 percent growth rate, and just over 23 years with 3.0 percent growth
