Then people would create television shows demonstrating innovative ways go waste 10,000 cubic meters of material every day. I'm not convinced human stupidity is bounded.

> I'm not convinced human stupidity is bounded I kind of am? Besides, people don't need to never be stupid again, they just need to become stupider at a slower rate than productivity increases. If hour by hour production significantly increased, how could people possibly waste enough? More importantly, would they? We waste resources to signal wealth. Wasting an ever greater proportion of your allocated geyser of materials doesn't signal anything.
