How can the amount of goods [and services?] be increased?
Increase in number of people [producers/laborers].
Increase in the "efficiency"/"helpfulness" of tools.
What else enhances productivity? What limits productivity, the capacity to produce or the amount that is actually produced? If no one consumes the [extra] goods/services, is there any point in generating them? What about the need for trade and foreign markets? Is this justifiable, in the name of wealth creation? But how much is enough?
Are there limits to consumption? (Perhaps there isn't a limit to possession.)
