Absolutely. Society is too big and complex for these archaic measures that measure production output, sales, and capital over quality of life, health, and happiness.
The UN Secretary General has said it's time to move beyond GDP and measure "the things that really matter to people and their communities."

Feels hard to believe America “promotes freedom and liberty” while they force the worlds most famous university to ban foreign students for protests against genocides in Gaza.
very cool that for ten years people at the heights of political commentary insisted to the point of rage that the paramount threat to free speech was “censorious” college students
after announcing that foreign students are being banned from Havard, Noem warns "this should be a warning to every other university to get your act together."
