Ein paar Tage lang abends die Berechnung des BIP angeschaut.

Bin ich die Einzige, die den « Fetisch BIP » für lächerlich hält?

@AwetTesfaiesus Two economists are walking in a forest when they come across a pile of shit.

The first economist says to the second,
“I’ll pay you $1000 to eat that pile of shit.”
The second economist takes the $1000 and eats the pile of shit.

They continue walking until they come across a second pile of shit.
The second economist says to the first,
“I’ll pay you $1000 to eat that pile of shit.”
The first economist takes the $1000 and eats it.

@AwetTesfaiesus After walking a bit more, the first economist says:
“You know, I gave you $1000 to eat shit, then you gave me back the same $1000 to eat shit. I can't help but feel like we both just ate shit for nothing.”

“That's not true,” the second economist replies.
“We increased the GDP by $2000!”
