PPP per capita is what matters for QoL. This took a massive hit in 2008 and took years to recover, and has been pretty flat since 2019. https://data.worldbank.

  I agree, directionally. To be even more precise we probably want an even better metric, but that’s closer yeah. By a better metric I mean something that would even more accurately capture quality of life, healthcare outcomes, social ties, productivity within the home or family that isn’t tied to an income from an employer, etc.
