Jarvis says, "Write short."
So here's the rewrite of below:
Chambers: There's a one-to-one correlation between GDP and productivity. (fastco)
Kochanski: If I do your wash and you do mine, and we pay each other, this adds to GDP. But if we each do our own wash, there's no effect on GDP, even though the same clothes get cleaned. That is, the same productivity can have two different effects on GDP.
So who's right? Chambers or Kochanski?
Thanks, buzzmachine.
