    I don’t understand why they did the USA like that, I guess they wanted to group contiguous regions but it makes for a misleading map when California GDP alone is almost equal to Texas and New York, combined.

    And why include the other states that they did? Louisiana is 26th for GDP in the US, and was probably only added to get to Texas. Why not just include AZ and NM then so you can add CA? Why not just highlight the entire US so we can all go “duh” that the US has more money than everyone else?
