Inflation is at 2.5%.

Unemployment has bottomed out again at 4%.

The stock market has been making all time highs.

The fed is lowering rates.

This kind of appeal to economic authority is why we’re in this mess to begin with

None of these measures says anything about human health or anything other than the fact of dollars exchanging hands

Egyptian, roman, French etc… slave colonies probably had the best economic productivity on the planet. Who cares?
