Yes, but the question is whether an economy can be sustained employing environmentalists and diversity consultants.

And that question is answered by the free market; not the crypto-socialists. There's nothing magical about it. If a demand exists, then someone will come along to fill that demand. At no point in the process does a third party's opinion of the importance of the item come into play. You and I might think that an environmentalist industry or a diversity consultant industry is goofy, but that doesn't matter to the loon who wants to pay money for just such a service.

how does the school teacher draw a salary without a underlying tax base from the productive sector? do we just have government print the money and pay them? like argentina?
