​I know but that's NOT what I'm saying,  I'm saying that economic thinking
is usually  mixed up with political thinking and a individual's moral
ideas. For example: child labor is a bad thing therefore it could not have
increased GNP in the 19th century,
but it's not necessarily so, one thing has nothing to do with the other.
