I'm Confused
I keep on being told
We need more people for
Economic growth to happen
Increase our people core
Hang on? I am confused
There seems to be some hitch
Countries very populated
Why aren't they stinking rich?
More people create more products
But spread around with more
It seems that no-one's better off
No better than before
Don Matthews December 2018
A book you'd find informative if you have time is "The Growth Delusion.
Why Economists Are Getting It Wrong and What We Can Do About It"
by David Pilling
This is something I can't work out. More people means more produced but spread around with more people, so no-one is more better off ??
Or am I missing something? ?

We do seem obessed with growth don't we? Real growth is due to increased productivity, but countries like UK are winging it due to a steadily increasing head count.
