Endless Growth - The creation of the Myth

The majority of global human society believes gdp growth and profitable enterprise is an endless ongoing progression , with endless resources .
this belief has been established by exemplary group action.
to own any large scale item, a home , car ,wedding or holiday.
usually requires a loan.
thereby putting forward the settlement of payment.
in other words , consuming the future for the sake of the now.
when that future is at hand , the pattern is already set, as the next loan has been inacted. pushing the can down the road again.

this is fairly uninspired dialogue.
may comparitive point is this:
any fiat currency is promissory, therefore fictitious and transitory.
belief and faith being the only foundation of it's being.
for all intents and purposes this can be defines as a ponzi scheme.

now connect the intangibles.
gdp growth requires minerals , energy and materials.
provided for the most part by the earth.
obviously a finite resource.
there is no planet b to fall upon.
any enclosed system has to conform to the limitations of it's form.

now combine the belief of debt in society .the act of debtslavery.
there becomes a clear moral conflict.
the human race believes we can borrow life from the earth from the future , never pay it off , just borrow more when required.
this is why the consumption of resources per sustainable year, date has crept ever earlier in the year.

the most worrying thing is the collective dissonance by humanity to fall on the debtor model as a manageable survival strategy.
even the elite couldn't create that mechanism, it is a form of failed evolution.
