    This is something I teach my students: The economy is not some third person, it each of us. You're not boosting "the economy" if you can't point to actual people whose lives will be better. Don't be seduced by the mystery of macroeconomic aggregates into believing otherwise https://twitter.com/ReverendWarnock/status/1337427138446815233 …

        I heard he couldn't finish it. Probably because it talked too much about people.

        I agree, when you nurture and protect the people, you are nurturing and protecting the economy.

        People ARE business. It's short-sighted to separate the two.

        It’s like I used to teach about statistics: “Statistics describe POPULATIONS, not individuals. Individuals describe THEMSELVES.”
