    Yeah. It’s better than the alternative, progress is progress. But this graph spells death that is absolutely certain. It needs to start sharply spiking downwards, and it needed to do it around the year 2000.

    Leveling the graph isn’t healing the patient. We’re still beating the patient when he’s in bad shape and needs time to recover. Leveling the graph means we’re no longer hitting him harder and harder with every passing day, but we’re still beating him, and already he is dying.
