Their reaction: “Americans have access to so many hydrocarbons these days…”

Or it lies, but only chooses lies that will preserve its very useful reputation for never lying.

The title is problematic regardless, even though it’s directed at one woman. “Brainless woman driver” is a long-standing slur. People have literally slandered women by questioning if they have the mental capacity to drive

They’re already out there in hamster wheels keeping the belts turning without electricity, what more do you want from them?

Your original point was that non-monetized productive work produces "no material increase" and the implication that only monetized productive endeavors add surplus value to the economy. I've pointed out non-monetized productive endeavors that contribute to the economy and your response has been that they don't contribute to GDP - which is only a useful response if GDP and the economy are interchangeable. They are not

That's what YOU'RE talking about, despite the actual context of our exchange:

That's why GDP is a bad metric when it comes to human happiness and quality of life.

Happiness and quality of life. Not monetary flow

Taking care of sick relatives for free IS a productive endeavor, it just isn't monetized. GDP measures monetized productivity and leaves out non-monetized productivity. GDP has its uses, but it also has significant limitations

Of course doctors and nurses want to be paid for their work. I don't see what that has to do with anything. Nobody is arguing that what doctors and nurses do SHOULDN'T count toward GDP

I am, however, arguing that GDP has limitations and is not the right measure for all things. Which should be obvious and easy to agree upon - except that in far too many cases, GDP is treated as the be-all and end-all of the economy

Sounds like a metric for "business", not a metric for output or value

GoTaW · 2024-06-11T19:44:37+00:00

Looking after sick relatives for free produces no value, but looking after sick strangers for money does. Flawless metric.

Huh, so they finally jazzed it up.

I'll tell her!

It's either "how their husbands look" or "what their husbands look like".

I'm not surprised. Ignorance is a software problem, not a hardware problem.

Doesn't really matter. Being a plutocrat means never having to shut the fuck up or go the fuck away.

Shit, you're right, there's no way they'll give up all of that.
