lss546, i agree, but can you quantify social policies? how can you factor that in the GDP, most school when they teach economic only use quantitative values but they, or at least from what ive seen acknowledge that it leaves out some qualitative factors, so i think until someone figures out for example whats the quantitative affect of such things as global warming or no child left behind etc. its then we are doing the best we can
