The world is flush capital which is driving down returns. We don't need to try and increase it as people with a surplus are always going to invest it.

I agree there's a problem there: we seem to have more capital than we need, yet we also have less savings (in the sense of people deferring consumption) than individuals need to have a comfortable retirement, for example.

I have yet to see good solutions for this problem.
