Is more necessarily good and less bad? Couldn't a moderate recession
be part of a healthy adjustment process? I ask this question because
it seems to me that the central tent pole of ideology is the supremacy
of more. Enough has no standing and reduction is considered a
humiliation. Once you accept that frame, it's hard to argue against
the beneficence of compound interest.
