Benefits to whom?
- londons_explore 3y agoBenefits to the country tend to also be benefits to the people of the country - or perhaps their children.
- n4r9 3y agoWhat do you mean by "to the country". Faster economic growth?
- londons_explore 3y agoFaster economic growth tends to lead to happier citizens. In fact, there is a philosophical school of thought that shows that happiness isn't related to the environment one lives in, but the improvement that one sees through one's lifetime. Economic growth can deliver that.
- mostlysimilar 3y agoUnfortunately all of that improvement is concentrated in the hands of the ultra-wealthy.
- n4r9 3y ago> Faster economic growth tends to lead to happier citizens. What's the evidence for this?
