Take out the "service sector"

In other words pretend some huge chunk of the economy doesn't exist, and then possibly you might have the beginning of a point.

But, not really, since even if we ignore the service sector there has been economic growth over the past 25 years. Manufacturing for example hit an all time high right before the recession started.
