Um, you do realize that GDP is just an easy measure of the health of the economy? That an economy where goods are produced yet never sold is not an economy at all? All this illustrates is that you don't understand how an economy, much less ours, operates. The basic assumption behind using GDP is that those goods and services generated are actually sold. To someone. Now they might be exports, that works too. But there have to be buyers for that production or you have another Juicero.
