Peter:

Thanks for sharing with the views on measurement of "prosperity." Many prominent economists have questioned the veracity of measuring prosperity by GNP, per-capita income, etc. But, it is difficult to find other measurable yard-sticks.

About the boat-man being inconsiderate to the waiting customers, he perhaps was thinking of a free-market champion (like the waiting wealthy American) starting a motor-boat service; he was not prepared to sacrifice his regular nap and was oblivious of losing his livelihood! <VBG>
