Economic Growth

Economic Growth is a process by which the wealthy exppropriate the resources of the poor and turn them into garbage at an accelerating rate to make money for people who already have more than they need. Strip away the carefully crafted illusions that growth creates prosperity and the truth is exposed that the larger consequence of economic growth is an acceleration of the consumption of real wealth (living wealth) to increase the finacial power of the rich and thereby increase inequality. Illusions to the contrary, economic growth shrinks the pie of real wealth and assures that the very wealthy gain control of an ever larger share of what remains either for their own indulgence or to feed it into the waste stream to make even more money. The increase in their own wealth assured the ruling class that indeed they are contributing to the creation of real wealth, when in fact they are simply acquiring control of more of what remains of a shrinking pie.
