I don't know a lot about economics, so I don't see why spending is always the best thing to do. Maybe spending doesn't lead to the best allocation of resources

Maybe spending doesn't lead to the best allocation of resources, as I could be blocking someone from using resources I bought, but cannot utilise as well as the other person could.
- adgar2 14y agoNever spending is at odds with mainstream economic theories. You are proposing reducing spending without any particular bound beyond "necessity." If you want our economy to be based on food, water, and shelter, just say so. But it will conflict with how the rest of us want the world to work.
