GDP is gross domestic product. It isn't representative of net surplus. That's my entire point.

You are talking about government spending? And arguing that they may not be in a budgetary surplus?

Because if they are in positive GDP then they are in an economic surplus… that’s what gdp is right? Else they are in a recession.

Neither of which matter to my point, because the pie is ALREADY big enough for a living wage for everyone.

Who is talking about government spending? The OP I was responding to was talking about livable wages provided by corporations. This has nothing to do with the government.

I was clarifying your point, you were saying positive gdp didn’t imply positive economic growth… or size of economy but it does. So what was your meaning?
