Yes growth is unlimited. When we finish growing we can always fight another world war and rebuild. Infinite growth!

Who cares about human well-being anyway!

Where do you think human well-being comes from?

Growth for growth's sake is the ideology of a cancer cell. It's antithetical to human well-being, too. If using some humans as objects increases profits, their well-being is, well, irrelevant.

Do you think it's a necessity to use some humans as objects in order to achieve growth?
