the article i linked mentions this
Even if the service sector is included in GDP, there is a conceptual problem associated with measuring its output, since what constitutes the rendering of a service is difficult to distinguish from what constitutes mere transfer payment. After all, one may derive satisfaction from making a transfer payment exactly as one derives satisfaction from the performance of a musician; how then can we include the one and not the other within the ambit of GDP?
the question is whether service sector as a whole should be measured and included.
i also do not believe prostitution as a service creates no value. what is ‘value’ depends, sex does provide pleasure and it is being done for payment. one could argue art (Paintings, Movies, TV Shows, Games etc) shouldn’t be included either because there is no tangible value being created.
i think it would depend on how its laundered.
if a person pays a sex worker $100 and the sex worker (assuming no middlemen) reports it as just someone friendly giving them money for nothing in return (gift) then that transaction itself won’t be counted in GDP.
if a person pays sex worker $100 and the sex worker runs a nail salon as a front, then that $100 would be counted because the ‘customer’ paid to get their ‘nails done’.
it isnt completely ridiculous. eg. sex workers get paid, sex workers then spend their money elsewhere increasing total demand. its just that it is difficult to measure (double counting issues and all) as the article says.
there can be ‘legal’ activities which may not be captured in official data too, the informal sector.
An anonymous US official said the military was moving it due to anticipated sea conditions.

I agree, I do not know if is deliberate or not but there are other ways to prevent spam that doesn’t require email verification. Like restricting ability to post/comment for some time or only allowing them to post after x number of comments etc.
In fact, reddit doesn’t really have a strict email verification. you can type in whatever email you want when registering, verification is optional (idk if they changed it recently though).
They seem to have the questionnaire thing but no captcha for registration. I love that one of the ‘golden rules’ is ‘No Tankie bullshit.’ with a wikipedia article for tankie.
honestly good on him for atleast trying to commit for a year. most youtubers who do this ‘experiment’ go for a day.
Oof
