Allison Schrager: The 'intangible economy' is making everyone miserable
Original: Allison Schrager: The ‘intangible economy’ is making everyone miserable
Economist Allison Schrager argues that the shift to an 'intangible economy' — one built on software, brands, data and services rather than physical goods — is fueling widespread frustration and unhappiness. She contends this structural change helps explain growing economic anxiety and dissatisfaction, even when headline indicators suggest the economy is performing well.
Why now: Ongoing debate about why people feel worse off despite solid economic statistics has put alternative economic explanations in the spotlight.
