          Also that.

          The dumb thing is that it almost works very well. Stuff people deem important gets built, and if you need to buy something there’s always somebody selling it. It’s just that there’s no cap on how much stuff you can have, and through a quirk of mathematics at some point getting more stuff becomes self-perpetuating.

              Yeah, that’s sure true. In the very long term it can change, but you have to wait for another titan to do it.
