Dwell on

Instead of technology helping to spread economic opportunity and lift many more boats, economic power is concentrating in a a small number of key regions. It's time for political and economic leadership to wake up to this new reality. It makes little sense to dwell on individual cities or countries anymore, when the real engines of survival, innovation, and growth are the New Megas.


Does dwell on mean consider please?

More like "ponder", but the key idea of "dwell (on)" is that you remain thinking about or pondering something for a long time. Often (not always) it has a slight negative connotation.
