Yes, we still agree, I mean, we agree on what you meant ny hour: the hour spent working. iow I should have said productive, but I did not feel well about the moralizing connotation this adjective can have - which is what your last paragraph >>there's no reason why voluntary workers and voluntary layabouts doing nothing shouldn't be counted too.<< addresses as well. >>No money, no count.<< ROTFL, here's an example of a circular reference if I ever saw one: "money is equivalent to productive hours expressed in money". Maurice, our discussion must give any reader, who has a freshman year of economics under his belt, a serious heartburn. Thank God, nobody has been looking for a replacement for Uncle Al (as yet...
