The number of women practitioners - used to be male dominant terrain. Nothing else except for money is valued. Ex: the work of being a mother. Anything that doesn"t generate itself around money is also considered to be unproductive. Even if some activities are illegal (prostitution) They are still considered productive for capital growth. The countries that produce the military machinery want it to keep going so that they can accumulate capital. Cycle of poverty begins at a very young age. Economics - tool of those who want to exploit. Whats happening to the quality of air, forests, water etc Exploitation of natural resources, habitats of endangered species. Time is what we all have in common. Biggest problem when terry was an undergrad. Un system of national accounts, is how we measure growth internationally. 50% of the planet - women engage in non paid work.
