If you print a trillion dollars out of thin air and then measure GDP nominally in dollar amounts, OF COURSE GDP goes up. Like fucking duh. But it means nothing.

It’s little different than changing the size of inches on a tape measure and then measuring the same house again, and congratulating yourself on having a bigger house.

Yep. True GDP hasn't surpassed the peak of the dot-com bubble.
