You should try living somewhere else, maybe it will help you realize that America, despite many flaws, is pretty damn good.

GDP measures gooRAB and services, what is a service? could transport of gooRAB possibly be a service? noooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I understand the general concept of services, as well as the general concept of valuable things you can't physically touch... i mean christ

i started out as a politics major then switched to econ because it seemed like most of the answers I intuited seemed to come out pretty much right, then the math to back them up started to make sense.

i guess i'm wired oddly though, lol.

Lawyers add nothing to an economy. They should not be measured. Their value as determined by the market is pointless, because their value according to fascists is zero. Or something?

You aren't measuring the worth of productive activity. You are measuring the worth of some of the productive activity. This isn't that complicated.

Well, for a retard I suppose it might be.

Not at all. the only reason why shit has value is because we say that it does and because we want to consume it in some manner. Hell if everyone stopped eating tomorrow food would have little value. If we didn't think that gold looked cool and didn't like shiney things than much of the production of Gold and diamonRAB would be worthless.

He's right. By having the world's reserve currency and debasing it, we force other countries to subsidize our economy by sending us their exports in exchange for our inflation. As Peter Schiff says, the US is not the engine of the global economy, but the caboose.

Actually, you very obviously don't, otherwise we wouldn't be having this conversation.
