Is it not possible to increase the GDP number by producing a lot of goods and services without anyone actually consuming them?
I was wondering, is it not possible to increase the GDP number by producing a lot of goods and services without anyone actually consuming them?
While it may be possible to increase the GDP number by producing more goods and services, it would not necessarily be sustainable without consumption. The purpose of producing goods and services is ultimately to sell them to consumers, as their spending drives economic growth. Producing goods without any intention to sell or consume them would not lead to long-term economic growth.
