minus-squareOBJECTION!linkfedilink2•8 months agoThe $2 per day is a figure used by the World Bank. According to this page: The welfare of people living in different countries can be compared by adjusting for differences in the purchasing power of their currencies. I don’t know the exact details of the World Bank’s methodology, but I believe the $2 figure is adjusted based on purchasing power.
