In society today you seldom hear anyone speak of progress of their country or society in terms of their physical well being, state of happiness, trust or social stability. Rather, the measures are presented to us through economic abstractions: we have the Gross Domestic Product, the Consumer Price Index, the value of the stock market, the rates of inflation, and so on…. But is this tell us anything of real value as to the quality of people's lives? No. All this measures have to do with the money sequence itself. And nothing more.
