Yeah, same. Its entering very similar territory to other economic quandaries and it isnt sustainable simply based on the fact that its predicated on unlimited and constant growth.

Salaries cant keep going up forever. Costs cant keep going up forever. Revenue cant keep going up forever. Eventually one of the factors that are propping the current system up are going to falter and then the whole thing is going to come crashing down.
