Reply #5 - Jun 18^th, 2012 at 2:49pm Economic growth is when a government accentuates the positive and eliminates the negative. The top 10% grow, feeding on fiat money.

Lies live everyday my friend.
You are right about this century, it will be a defining time for the human race if we even make it through it.
Australia needs to put itself first that's for sure.

growth is the desire of every organism.

Human growth is the desire to build a better life for themselves. This is achieved through accumulation of money in most cases.

Economic growth is what happens when you put numerous (25 million in our case) human growth strategies together.

Without economic growth your stifle the aspirational nature of humanity.

Only technology can enable unlimited economic growth.

no it can't: primary industry is a reality!

Externalities are a reality!!

Lastly, exactly whose 'aspirations' do you speak of??

War, like economics, is a complex equation!!

Jevons Paradox was noticed circa 100 hundred years ago so the technology argument is a non-starter!!
