[quote=SK in CV]The problem with that forecast is that solely relying on economic trends and ignoring demographic trends can lead to faulty conclusions.

Actually , energy trends are more important than anything. For energy is the basis of all economic activity. Juxtapose energy trends with demographic and you get monumentally faulty conclusions. Which is where we are at today. Declining net energy, shifting demographics and growing population all mired in debt — debt that requires, at this point, epic growth to pay back — epic growth which is a physical impossibility.
Perpetual economic growth is just a psychotic fantasy
