It does not show how equitably a country’s income is distributed
It does do not account for improving the longevity of human life nor the quality of the environment, such as pollution, environmental degradation, health, education, etc.; particularly in underdeveloped countries
And finally, I feel that despite the fact that per capita income affects material welfare, it is wealth that determines economic welfare and not current income as such.
