That means that the official growth rate does not reflect the rise in real incomes that came with air conditioning, anti-cancer drugs, new surgical procedures, and the many more mundane innovations. Moreover, because the US government does not count anything in GDP unless it is sold in the market, the vast expansion of television entertainment and the introduction of services like Google and Facebook have been completely excluded from the national account.
但官方GDP数据没有将新的和改进的商品和服务所带来的生活水平的提高计算在内。这意味着官方增长率没有反映与空调、抗癌药物、新手术流程以及其他许多普通创新一起到来的真实收入的提高。此外，由于美国政府不将任何不是在市场中出售的东西计入GDP，电视娱乐的快速扩张和谷歌和Facebook等服务的引入完全被排斥在国民账户之外。
