Question

Is it true that a bank is to a country what the heart is to the body ?

Answer 1

I think society is the heart of the country.., their attitude is the way country grows...,

Their economy is the blood pressure and their happiness is country's survival(breathing)

Answer 2

I agree from my heart, a bank of blood.

Answer 3

Yes, almost the same.

Answer 4

Not even close,  I'd say a tape worm or some other massive parasite would be a better analogy.
