In conclusion, I believe that while inventiveness tends to skew towards consumption, and that consumption drives population growth, that it is self correcting because the pressures described in Malthusian's law of population results in innovations that eventually resolve the bottleneck on the production side.

The fact that we have record sized sovereigns attempting to centrally plan our way out of a catastrophe they themselves caused by suspending the market's ability to interpret the constraints of the physical world is only going to make the 'learning' that much more severe.

It is the population management equivalant of keynesianism, distorting the signal that would otherwise allow humanity to self correct at the appropriate scale and timeliness.
