My point is that it should be more granular. I only ever hear it described in one of three things in tension with each other: markets, jobs, inflation. Do you think you can just watch those three things and guide a country/world into a prosperous one or could there be pitfalls?

What evidence is there that politicians or GOP today formulate policy only on these three things?

Media and GOP have talked about other items like immigration, taxes etc which impact the economy.

And if this is about metrics then GDP, budget deficits etc are also economic metrics talked about in the media.

Why are you saying only those three metrics are tracked by policymakers?
