I'm just glad people are starting to realize this is a reality. If you look at all the projections, right now, most people still think everything's gonna keep going up in that exponential growth curve.

As for economic growth. The point is to increase material living standards but this isn't the case anymore. We've already peaked, as of 20 years ago in the US. If you take GDP per capita and divide it by any reasonable measure of inflation such as the case shiller housing index, you'll find that our ability to shelter people has decreased for nearly 25 years now and arguably even longer than that. 200 years ago, Henry david thoreaugh was saying people had mortgages of 10 to 15 years which he felt was an extremely long time. Now, it's quite common to have them be 30 years!
