The three basics of a real economy are agriculture, mining and manufacturing. You can add building roads and buildings to those three. What we have is a service economy and a consumer economy which is idiocy and cannot last. Too many consumers and not enough producers. Too many tax eaters and not enough taxpayers.

Couldn’t have said it better. I am scrambling personally to move into light mnufacturing, even a little gardening/agriculture.

You could say there are four basics instead of three: Agriculture, Mining, Manufacturing, and Construction.

Except that Construction might be a subset of Manufacturing.
