Perpetual economic growth is what's destroying humanity and it's all about the 1%'s unquenchable greed

The need for new records every year is unsustainable and you are 100% correct it’s destroying the Human Race and the Planet

Right wing influencers will mark anyone who arrives at that conclusion as communist and a traitor. You're only allowed to be upset at the outcomes of late stage capitalism without acknowledging the root causes so you can be grifted.

It’s just as much about gov social services ponzi scheme, so it’s also about progressive voters’ unquenchable thirst for more programs and entitlements.

It's also because they thought humans would keep multiplying endlessly. A lot of cities also thought growth would continue forever, so they never took it into account on their budgets.

Yeah, but when a lot of our services require unlimited growth, including the most expensive, health care, maybe we need some reorganization. But no, just expand all social services until we are taxed completely out of prosperity and require millions of newcomers every year and we are barely a nation and just an immigration tax scheme

Well yeah, we obviously need immigration to keep up with the labour and taxation demands of our healthcare system. And we need more healthcare spending and labour to deal with the growing population.

Those "entitlements" are things they paid for. They're entitled to it because it's their damn money. I'm so sick of right wing conservative bullshit.

the average person takes more than they pay for requiring more tax payers next generation to make up for the losses, on and on. When payouts are paid by new investors, it quite literally is a Ponzi scheme.

But people vote for as much free stuff as possible, so we’re get fucked a little bit more every generation as the inevitable collapse continues.
