    Will we do more? No.

    We have only got so far with technology because it resulted in sales. When the goal is less sales, less industry, less mindless consumption, no innovation is going to happen.

      Ah, but you forget about the rubber band finally snapping. When it is released there will be push back and things will happen quickly.

      Now the real question becomes, how much more can we take. I believe we are reaching a tipping point where the uber-rich either help, or are removed. And I think they are starting to see that too.
