|||国内生产总值 is commonly used as an indicator of the economic health of a country, as well as to gauge a country's standard of living. Critics of using 国内生产总值 as an economic measure say the statistic does not take into account the underground economy - transactions that, for whatever reason, are not reported to the government. Others say that 国内生产总值 is not intended to gauge material well-being, but serves as a measure of a nation's productivity, which is unrelated. |
