I really liked Joseph Stiglitz’s talk on GDP v GNP. What should be using to measure our economies? I foolishly thought this was a concrete standard. What did surprise is the other video on happiness and economics. I mean comedian Daniel Tosh will argue that nobody frowns on a wave-runner, but I personally know people that barely get by and are among the happiest people I’ve ever met. I didn’t even think this was being researched… I figured this was already common sense.
