"Gross National Product counts air pollution and cigarette advertising... napalm... television programs which glorify violence in order to sell toys to our children.
Yet the gross national product does not allow for the health of our children, the quality of their education or the joy of their play... it measures everything in short, except that which makes life worthwhile."
(Worth reading the full speech; on poverty, protest and more. 1968)
