DOUBLE COUNTING: The act of including the value of intermediate goods more than once in the value of gross domestic product. Because the value, or price, of final goods includes the cost, or value, of all intermediate goods used, including market transactions for intermediate separately in the measurement of gross domestic product would lead to double counting.

BROWN PRAGMATOX
Your compete MICRO*scope for today
You are the type of person who is hardworking and industrious, who knows your job and what needs to be done. Family and friends never, never, never try to convince you of an alternative point of view, political or otherwise. Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time waiting for visits from door-to-door solicitors trying to buy either an AC adapter that won't fry your computer or a case for your designer sunglasses. Be on the lookout for door-to-door salesmen. You should consider shopping at stores or businesses beginning with the letter K, but do not buy any products with a serial number or product code containing the number 296433. Your preferred shopping venue is thrift stores. Your special symbol is the comma (,).
Is this You?
As a Brown Pragmatox, you are down-to-earth and practical. You are hard working and industrious. You are frugal to the point that you might even refrain from making a purchase that you really, really need. Doing so often causes problems down the road. You definitely go with function over form and substance over style.
This isn't me! What am I?

Taking A Ride On TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTUREOur pedestrian excursion gives us a ground-level view of the economy, but it's certainly slow and time-consuming. If you're like me, you've probably thought once or twice about jumping into an Omni Motors XL GT 9000 sports coupe to speed us along the way. Or perhaps an Omni Airlines 30-day tourist excursion would make our trip faster and less exhausting. That's one nice thing about modern transportation, it's pretty quick and not too expensive. It also helps us get a whole lot closer to solving the unsolvable problem of scarcity. However, for a really good pedestrian view of transportation and how it helps us along, we'd better remain on foot.
