"Long revered as a stalwart of a capitalist society the need to grow has
come to overshadow everything else. We prioritise it over our personal
health, we prioritise it over the health of the planet and we prioritise
it over our happiness.

But given that the function of any economy is to provide an environment
of subsistence, that could be little short-sighted."

Via Muse, who wrote: "The promise we are now seeing in New Zealand is
beautiful!"
