It all distills down to 'at what cost' and being an armchair examiner, you don't really have a 'real world' grasp on that, only what you read and hear not what you actuall deal with, hands on.

The real cost are the labor and material invested in a product. Those we have to weigh against the benefits like improved health. As long as the material input is similar or even less and we have unemployment we advance our well-being without giving up anything. Unemployed workers sitting at home is a real cost for society.

I read and hear lots and I take about 25% of it as truth and the rest is hogwash.
