Who cares, let population decline for a generation or so. Maybe we will stop producing so much shit and scale back
But that's bad for the Big GDP Number
Oh no, not the economy!
Anyways...
The Economy is kinda important, especially when the big Economy Computer starts telling everyone that a downturn in Brawndo sales means they're all homeless.
Big Economy Computer? I didn't know USSA already have built communism.

With the size and scope of modern American mega-corps, we're closer to it than you'd think. Hayek's economic calculation problem is functionally solved.

that's not how capitalism works. if you're not selling enough shit you find a way to make the same people buy more or pay more. line must go up. no scaling back. line must go up.
