Steady state society possible?
I wonder if ever there was a steady state society that relied on a usury based money system. Conversely, I wonder if there was ever a perpetual growth society that didnt.
I assert this all goes back to how money works. Usury drives surplus (can't pay back more money than there is haha, so how bout a bit of extra grain so I can keep my land?!). Surplus drives population increase (more food = more people). Fossil fuel detritus has become the enabler of great surplus and allowed this paradigm to play out even further.
I think it all goes back to usury money.
