It's ok to have it slow at some point. I, for one, don't particularly like "endless progress" (and with hazy goals, mostly for its own sake).
Better we learn to better use the tools we already have, and distribute them more evenly (1/3 of the world still lives in medieval like conditions, and the inefficiency with which the rest 2/3 uses the available technology is mind bogling -- I'm not even talking from an ecological standpoint, more like the useless "social boilerplate" that we use it for).
