Ај нека ни е со среќа рангирањето на Македонија на 8-то место на листата на Бизнис Инсајдер на најмизерни држави во светот.
Откако во 2013 година ги рангираше организираните грабежи на комбињата на Македонска Пошта на 3-то место на најдобро организирани грабежи, а во јануари 2015 ја рангираше Македонија како 12-та најсиромашна држава во светот, во септември 2015 Бизнис Инсајдер ја рангира Македонија на 8-то место на најмизерните држави во светот со 27.9 индексни поени.
Друштво ни прави Србија на 9-то место со 27.8 индексни поени, на која и бегаме за само 0.1 поен, и Јужна Африка на 7-то место со 31.1 индексни поени, која ни бега за 3.3 поени.
На врвот на листата на Бизнис Инсајдер на најмизерни држави во светот, доминираат Венецуела на 1-во место со 70 индексни поени, Сирија на 2-ро место со 67.8 индексни поени, и Џибути на 3-то место со 62.9 индексни поени.
Од гледна точка на невработеноста, Македонија е на 4-то место со 28% невработеност, а за само 0.1% ни бега Лесото на 3-то место со 28.1% невработеност, понатаму Сирија на 2-ро место со 33% невработеност, и Џибути на 1-во место со 60% невработеност. Исто така, од гледна точка на невработеноста, Македонија за само 1% му бега на Јемен на 5-то место со 27% невработеност.
Интересно е тоа што во случајот на Лесото, Бизнис Инсајдер спомнува дека владата е најголемиот работодавач во оваа држава, што можеби повеќе од доволно говори што не чека и нас со владата кај најголем работодавач во Македонија.
Изненадувачки, соросоидите од Бизнис Инсајдер не ја ставиле Германија - во која се робува со чистење на тоалети за мизерни плати - на листата на 18-те најмизерни држави во светот. Сигурно Германија е 19-та најмизерна држава во светот, но соросоидите од Бизнис Инсајдер намерно ја скратиле листата заклучно со 18-та најмизерна држава во светот - Тунис, со 20.1 индексни поени и невработеност од 15.2%.

It's hard to get by when you don't have a job and the cost of living keeps rising.
Jorge Silva/Reuters
This is the maxim behind economist Arthur Okun's "Misery Index," which adds together a country's unemployment and inflation rates. The higher the number, the more "miserable" your country.
There has been criticism of the index. Extensive studies have shown that
unemployment influences happiness (or, rather, unhappiness) significantly more than inflation.
Still, few would argue that both unemployment and inflation are bad when they are very high.
In light of that, Business Insider compiled a list of the 18 most miserable countries based on 2014 data available at the
CIA World Factbook. Some countries struggle with both high unemployment and inflation, while others have one rate asymmetrically higher than the other.
Some countries are absent from the list because data was either unavailable or outdated.
18. Tunisia
Misery-index score: 20.1
CPI inflation:
4.9%
Unemployment:
15.2%
Reuters/Anis Mili
Tunisia was once called a "success story in Africa and the Middle East, but [today] it faces an array of challenges following the 2011 revolution," according to the CIA Factbook. The government's biggest challenges include reassuring businesses and investors and bringing budget and current-account deficits under control.

17. Jamaica
Misery-index score: 20.7%
CPI inflation:
7.1%
Unemployment:
13.6%
Reuters/Phil Noble
Jamaica's economy relies heavily on the services sector, including tourism. Unfortunately, the country suffers from high crime and corruption and a high unemployment — which leads to more crime.
The government is battling a two-headed hydra: On the one hand, it needs to achieve fiscal discipline to maintain debt payments, but on the other hand it wants to confront the serious crime problem.

16. Croatia
Misery-index score: 20.8%
CPI inflation:
-0.2%
Unemployment:
21%
Reuters/Antonio Bronic
Croatia is one of the better-off former Yugoslav republics, but the country was hammered by sudden slowdown in 2008 with the financial crisis and never fully recovered. Major long-term problems include uneven regional development, a challenging investment climate, and a "stubbornly" high unemployment rate.

15. Ukraine
Misery-index score: 20.9%
CPI inflation:
12.1%
Unemployment:
8.8%
Reuters/Gleb Garanich
Ukraine's economy was hit hard during the financial crisis, finally rebounded in 2010, and then imploded after Russia annexed Crimea. (GDP fell by 6.8% in 2014.)
Political corruption and inefficient reforms continue to hold back the country.

14. Mongolia
Misery-index score: 21.7%
CPI inflation:
12.9%
Unemployment:
8.8%

13. Egypt
Misery-index score: 23.5%
CPI inflation:
10.1%
Unemployment:
13.4%

Egypt's economy has slowed since 2011 following political and security uncertainty. The country's tourism and manufacturing sectors were particularly bruised. Additionally, limited foreign-exchange earnings and weak growth have made public finances unsustainable.
Recently, a
huge gas field was discovered off Egypt's coast.

12. Spain
Misery-index score: 24.1
CPI inflation:
-0.2%
Unemployment:
24.3%
Reuters/Juan Medina
Spain looked deflated during the financial crisis, but thing are looking up. The country saw its first full year of positive economic growth in 2014, its unemployment rate is
falling at the fastest rate ever recorded, its borrowing costs are "dramatically" lower than their peak in 2012, and inflation is falling.

11. Greece
Misery-index score: 25.5
CPI inflation:
-1.3%
Unemployment:
26.8%
Reuters/Yannis Behrakis
Greece was the big story out of Europe this summer as the Syriza government battled against its European creditors
over a bailout deal.
Unfortunately, on top of Greece's
numerous economic problems, "uncertainty regarding Greece's future in the eurozone has dampened investor confidence," according to the CIA Factbook.

10. Iran
Misery-index score: 26.1
CPI inflation:
15.8%
Unemployment:
10.3%
AP
Iran is the wild card on the world stage right now. The potential sanctions relief could lead to an
economic window of opportunity, especially considering that the country has a young, relatively well-educated population and a large market size. Plus, Iranian oil stands to
return to the market.

9. Serbia
Misery-index score: 27.8
CPI inflation:
1.7%
Unemployment:
26.1%

8. Macedonia
Misery-index score: 27.9
CPI inflation:
-0.1%
Unemployment:
28%

Unemployment:
25%

Misery-index score: 32
CPI inflation:
3.9%
Unemployment:
28.1%
Reuters/Siphiwe Sibeko

oil resources for revenue," according to the CIA Factbook.

Unemployment:
60%
Reuters/Thomas Mukoya
Djibouti relies heavily on foreign assistance to help support its balance of payments, and struggles with a 60% unemployment rate.
Inflation is "not a concern" — but only because the Djiboutian franc is tied to the US dollar. Unfortunately, the artificially high value of the Djiboutian franc hurts the country's balance of payments.

Misery-index score: 67.8
CPI inflation:
34.8%
Unemployment:
33%

Syria's economy continues to decay. It got significantly worse in 2014 following international sanctions, widespread infrastructure damage, and decreased consumption and production. And on top of that, thousands of Syrian refugees are

Misery-index score: 70
CPI inflation:

Unemployment:
7.8%

"Venezuela seems to be going from worse to worse," RBC Capital Markets'
Helima Croft previously wrote.
The plunging oil prices in late 2014, combined with a recession,
crushed the Venezuelan economy. Inflation is
out of control to the point that an iPhone 6 costs nearly
$47,700 right now. The country is looking for allies outside of OPEC in hopes of
stabilizing its oil prices.
