The growth has been primarily in the financial industry. Oh - I get it now - the finance industry has provided support for itself to grow.

  "The growth has been primarily in the financial industry." Completely false and absurd. Supply follows demand. GDP has grown throughout every industry that hasn't seen a decrease in its demand (e.g. railroads, newspapers, etc.). That includes technology, consumer goods, and technology. The economy doesn't exist in a vacuum. The finance industry provides capital to all industries.

    If the financial industry hadn't been bailed out, it would have contacted. In its case, supply hasn't followed demand. Supply is artificially high, because demand has been produced by force.
