Since 1990, global population rose by 2 billion...

The 0-5yr/old global population has rose by +16m since 1990...all the remaining 1.984 billion of the population "growth" is simply everyone living longer.

This is why CB's have become the markets...

No shit. Common fucking sense really. Given the energy and complexity of the biosphere that is required to maintain life (at least as we know it), no one should be surprised that there is a limit to how many humans the planet can support, especially at high standards of living.

fucking duh.

So are you implying our economy can't grow forever/to infinity?

GDP growth not going to break records each year until forever?

Well on paper it definitely can, and will. We don't need population growth, if those serfs would only get a little more productive and efficient we can all prosper together, forever!

Growth of what? Be specific.

You can keep all the financial "products", they are not real anyway.

Population growth coupled with savings and earnings magnified by credit access/utilization makes up the bulk of changing consumption of commodities, consumer goods, etc. This is the global "growth" which is ending coupled with flat earnings and declining credit.

Reaganomics called, they want that groove back.

We've been there before, just dig through FDR's '30's propaganda. The only thing that's changed are the speakers names....

Maybe if they put a bunch of AutoTune on it people will like listening to it more?

More increases in the debt of Japan and US.

Go for a double at $37 trillion from the $18.5 trillion.

Obama owns the horrendous economy and his pathetic 'recovery', they are his idiotic policies that have been implemented. He will go down as the worst president in history, it is not even close everything he touches turns to rancid shit.
