Let's describe the economy as a house. A sprawling manor, full of rooms tiny and giant alike. Walking through, you can't help but stop off at the little rooms to check on them, to engage with that part of the economy, yet the majority of your time will be spent in large rooms.
The large room of beds, part of the economy. The large dining hall for food, another part of the economy. Those have some leaks right now, holes that could do with patching- so let's ensure the lease is signed again this November, or else another person will come in and bulldoze it all over to try again.
Look how beautiful this house is! Help us keep it in shape, don't you want that leak that bothers you while you eat, that draft when you sleep, to be fixed?
None of this matters to people outside the house.
None of this matters to people who pay a monthly fee just to stay near the house, who are battered by nickles and dimes on their way to and from the food trapped inside.
We are being told that the house is doing great, told not to harp too much on the damage, more obvious from the outside. Don't stop paying your due, or your patch of grass will go from public to private real quick.
I do not care how pretty the house is, for I cannot afford to stay.
