Brazil’s regulation and tax system is not the most effective. When there are increases in GDP that should help for healthcare systems and education, a lot of money is lost due to very high levels of corruption instead of using the money for the social wellbeing. This means that although there is economic growth, well being or economic development is very little or none.

Rising prices of avocados has led farmers to begin deforastating illegally the forests of mexico in order to produce on a more massive scale. This can be assumed to come from rising prices from inflationary forces due to economic growth. This deforestation has led to the violation of protected areas such as sanctuarys for Mariposas Monarcas

During his presidency, Mexico's president Enrique Peña Nieto spent more than 86 million pesos in a house for his wife. As many sources have declared, clearly this house was paid with all of the money the government steals from the taxes Mexican people pay. This clearly shows how the politicians in the country, are the one that instead of taking the taxes to pay for better goods and services for people, they steal that money and spend it in luxuries for themselves. This is a clear example of corruption in Mexico.

South Sudan's Weapon Industry (Jimena Cantu)

# data[].attributes.body
South Sudan, apart from being one of the poorest countries in the world, it is one of the countries that spend more money in weapon production. This means, that their growth is increasing, but their development is not, because people do not have the chance to have a better life and a better income for their basic needs. Poor people work in the weapon industry, and therefore there is growth but no development.

# data[].attributes.body
Mexico City is one of the biggest examples we can use regarding unequal distribution of wealth. Rcih people in Mexico find ways to keep getting richer and richer, while poor people in the city have no chance of getting a higher income, which overtime leads to a greater contrast between rich and poor. On the picture we can clearly see the difference, rich people are able to develop huge country clubs and residences, while poor people barely find a way to have a roof over their heads.

Economic growth can minimize economic development in this picture, because if people are having a greater income, or new jobs, this means that there will be an increase in the demand of cars and more people will have access to them. This will be a negative externality of consumption, because it will increase traffic, and this will lead to more pollution, and as people spend more time in traffic, they will be less efficient at their jobs, therefore, minimizing the development.
