Due to insane bubble on the stock market, based on nothing but being pumped by the Fed with all those trillions created out of thin air. Of course, real GDP should account for inflation, unlike the nominal obviously. But they simply underestimate the inflation! Literally changed the methodology into pure manipulation, making the inflation index useless. And the real GDP data as the result. Accurate Real GDP figure is at 17 trillion at best today.
But you can't manipulate non-monetary data, unless of course going full DEAR LEADER and just lying. The industrial production index and energy supply show the whole truth! From 1929 to 2007 the correlation between GDP and industrial production has been pretty much 100%, and both grew around 14 times. But from 2009 there's a complete disconnect! GDP has grown tremendously for no reason, and industrial production is stagnant. The data on energy is only from 1990, but you can clearly see it growing until 2008 in correlation with GDP. But since then, it even fell! And don't give me bs about MUH new technologies, that everything is more energy efficient - BLA, BLA, BLA! You can look up energy graphs of countries where there's actual real economic growth! It grows no matter what. Because economy needs energy. Simple as!
AMERICA IS A BIG FAT UGLY FRAUD!

and china's has been complete BS since 1990

most of burguer economy transition from industry to services long ago, so it cant be measured exclusively by energy consumption or steel output or whatever.

like, amazon is worth more than entire steel sector maybe but consumes only a tiny fraction of the energy and it mostly dont produce anything, it just provide a cool service


but yes, stock market are mostly jew lies and the dollar is based on amerika strong

Yeah, that's what I said. Overinflated fake numbers driven by stock market, jew daycare and financial kikery. Doesn't make it real economy.

BTW EU has the same stagnation in industrial production and energy output since 2008. But they don't have insane bubble on the stock market, barely above the 2008 level. And surprisingly (not) same for GDP...

Yup, numbers are cooked just like every labor report. Has been for a very long time.

For many years, I've been trying to make it clear to people here that the entire west was completely bankrupt in 2008. And since then, by printing money and keeping interest rates close to 0% for a long time, they've managed to stay afloat long enough to find a solution, like breaking up and exploiting russia for example, or at least distributing the assets in their own interests before everything collapsed.

>industry to services
This is a fairly normal development once you've reached the peak of capitalism. Especially since globalization.

The only big player still solvent in 2008 was warren buffett. I still wonder who had all the money. But it was probably really the little boomer.
