The percentage of urban area carries a positive sign in the local security and urban infrastructure and a negative sign in all other categories; it is significant only in the administration spending. Continuing, the CV does not seem to be a good measure of urban sprawl, its estimated parameters are insignificant in all the equations; in addition, its sign is negative in most estimation, the opposite of expected. On the other hand, the GI does a better job of capturing the urban sprawl effects, the estimated parameters for aggregate spending and spending on administration and environmental management are large and significant, additionally, it has a negative sign in the aggregate and administration spending, and a positive sign in the environmental management; in other expenditure categories, the estimated parameters are large, but not statistically significant. The estimated parameters for the dummy for medium concentrations show that the GI is not a determinant factor of the spending on administration and environmental management for cities of medium urban concentrations, suggesting that the effects presented by the GI are related to cities of high urban concentrations; however, the estimated parameter for the aggregate spending and spending on social assistance are positive and statistically significant. Lastly, urban population density has a positive and highly significant coefficient

This is just the official statistics and the actual remittances that take place through both official and unofficial channels are much higher than the official remittances. Remittances through informal channels could add at least 590 % to the globally recorded flows ( World Bank). There is growing evidence that there exists a link between remittances sent to home countries by migrants and child labor. According to the United Nations Population Division’s estimation, in 2010 3 about 214 million people, or roughly 3.1 percent of the world’s population, lived outside their country of birth of citizenship.

If people want to feel like they are getting paid the amount they should for the work they are doing then people need to go to college. The average “income for those with a bachelor's degree was $65,482, and $92,525 for those with advanced degrees (Is a College Education)”.

If there are no compensation mechanisms at work for the elder, there will be only a small number of population engaged in productive work. It will make total output per capita will decline. Second, the savings rate varies by age. Working age people save the most and also because they have a reason to save in anticipation of retirement.
