    How could we possibly have an economy that’s not based on constant growth? It’s absolutely inconceivable! I mean, what would we even do if we weren’t endlessly chasing that sweet, sweet GDP growth? Imagine a world where we actually meet everyone’s needs, live sustainably, and focus on well-being instead of mindless expansion—utter madness! Clearly, the only way to be “healthy” is to keep growing forever on a finite planet.

      But that level of stability would mean no one could make themselves richer!

      The thing is: nature will bring the stability anyway. It just won’t include us. Sucks that we all have to die because the greediest among us cannot pull head from ass.

        I don’t think it’s given humans will go extinct in the foreseeable future, rather the capitalist system will collapse and create room for a more sane one.
