There is not, as some people seem to think, any economic upper bound on this number.
I know that this is a side issue, but it keeps cropping up as a side issue in pg's essays. I would be interested in a more thorough discussion of this point.
- chadgeidel 18y agoI too, would like to see this discussed. There certainly is a PHYSICAL upper bound - that is the number of people living on the planet. What would the world be like if every man, woman, and child were an entrepreneur (maybe better put - a free agent)? It is certainly something to think about. Would we move to a barter system?
- eru 18y agoWhy should we? Why should free agents be incompatible with money? [Perhaps we'd get private money, though.]
