The problem is in capitalism itself.
Produce produce produce, make more than last year, make higher profits, just make it. Do we really need everything we produce? No. Even though we have limited resources, we are too greedy to stop wanting more and more. Look at for example bakeries. Nobody, absolutely nobody eats all that bread they produce. But do they instead produce less? No, of course not. They would rather throw the surplus away than risk missing out on even a tiny bit of profit from producing too little.
Yep. The infinite growth economy is a scam idea that a few fake experts inserted into the world
discourse some time ago. People confuse
basic things
and love to submit to authority, just having a Phd does not mean you know anything.
You could be as dumb as a rock. That's why the world is full of fake experts and false ideas. There are some good books on economies that don't chase yearly growth. Assuming even half of the theory would come true, those economies are utopias compared to our capitalist hell.
