So your saying we should stop being so productive?Gwad said:
Is growth good if we're a cancer? When do we level off and refine ourselves to a quality that propels us for many centuries?RaceBannon said: -

Yes I live In conditions that put me under the poverty line, Its not so bad life is pretty simple. It has put me on a path of training my body and mind instead of worrying about what items I have or don't have. All my needs are met and I work a Job. No but my father did pass on a gift of self reflection though which I am blessed to have. -

Why do you think I am trying to insult your intelligence? This is not my intention. Questions with the intent of seeing the others point of view are part of having a healthy discussion in my opinion.

This confusion comes from Trump being elected on the grounds of 'Making America Great Again'. To regain that ideology of prosperity in America, does there not have to be a lack of that very thing? Could you please help me to understand your position; as you see I may be misunderstanding you?

Nothing is free.
So again, what's your better idea than growth and wealth and prosperous citizenship? -

GDP: "the total value of goods produced and services provided in a country during one year."
I think there is more to it than that. Do you not agree?
