Profit measures how much money the company makes. It does not measure quality of service nor does it measure the worth of the service.

Certainly it measures the worth of the service. The company can only accrue a profit if somebody else views their product as having worth to themselves. Quality of service is an adjutant of that.

Viewing level of profit as the only good and reasonable measure of positivity is a huge mistake. It is a simple answer that relieves people of burden of thinking.

The problem here though is that "profit" is an objective measurement. Other measurements are generally not so. As such, it fosters instability as changes in government change the definitions and applications.

Recessions, not depressions. More stability, as I said.

Are three recessions in the course of eight years a sign of greater stablity than none in the course of eight? Or one in the course of 15years?
