Infinite growth in a finite system is the definition of cancer. And like a cancer it will keep poisoning us, and must be cut out and eradicated.
Capitalism made a treatment for the cancer.
Capitalism took cancer research, funded by taxpayers and performed by graduate students and post docs for no profit, slapped a hefty price tag on it for the public, then called it "innovation" to justify the insane amount of money they were able to extract from the masses (the same masses rhat originally funded that research).
