Economy Works Differently: Any Good Entrepreneur Drives Investment by Its Future Earnings Rather Than Its Spending, So Why Do Governments Drive by GDP (Consumption+ Investment Spending)?

Abstract

GDP, even net of obsolescence (NDP) has to be considered only as an expense (investment is an expense; consumption is an expense). As an entrepreneur you will never manage your investments by looking only the expenses; it is clear you will make decisions on gains. As a person, will you look at the expenses you make to acquire stocks or at the gains? Thus it must have been clear that you will never manage a country by costs, so why do governments use GDP (consumption plus investment spending) to drive their economy? Governments should manage gains: wealth created, which is the full result you get from all these expenses.
