RE: The gross domestic product says nothing about our well-being and that of the planet. Time for an alternative
I must say that as comprehensive as this is, your review of the word : GDP is still one sided.
You're looking at GDP from the side of an economy based on its people's suffering which are being marketed for profit, to an extent, Yes. You're right, but that's just one side of it.
GDP also measures the progress of its people, there financial state in cut and clean form.
