I'm not sure it gets any better than that. *Declining* GDP means
nobody's* quality of life is improving. Improving GDP means
the potential for improved quality of life exists.

*maybe pirates, but they pay in violence, so ... nobody's.

I keep hearing stories from low-GINI index countries that
scare me. So I don't think that works, either.
