Q Why don''''t resource rich countries take that money and invest in modern industries to get away from their reliance on commodities? Seems like the real problem in AUSNZCAN is they have no diversity in their economies since they just sell oil, NG, copper, wheat, etc. Canada occasionally has tech companies like RIMM, Shopify, lululemon,etc but not consistently like in the US or EU. 为什么资源丰富的国家不把这些钱投资于现代产业，以摆脱对大宗商品的依赖？看来澳新加 AUSNZCAN 地区真正的问题在于他们的经济缺乏多样性，因为他们只销售石油、天然气、铜、小麦等等。加拿大偶尔会有像RIMM、Shopify、lululemon这样的科技公司，但不像美国或欧盟那样稳定。 I''''m guessing it is culturally driven. I''''ve been to Australia (Gold Coast) & Canada (Toronto) and they are both very laid back countries whereas here in US (sf bay area) people are always late going to their next job or trying to make more money working multiple jobs. Of course California is a state full of carpet baggers (no body is really from California). 我猜这是文化因素造成的。我去过澳大利亚（黄金海岸）和加拿大（多伦多），这两个国家都很悠闲，而在美国（旧金山湾区），人们总是late going to their next job，或者为了多打工赚更多钱。当然，加州到处都是投机政客carpet baggers（没有人真正来自加州）。 Apr 21, 2025 UQ
