8. The modern corporation...
...bases its current business model on the dead-end idea of unsustainable exponential growth. The expectation of investors (these days anyway) is to see constant appreciation of their investment, and failure to deliver results in stock pullouts. To do this (at least in the short term to give the illusion of this working) you can do one of two things, move more and more product, or move the same amount of product at ever increasing prices.

Expectations of investment return in this country has reached a critical mass where the inflation of price cannot be supported against essentially dwindling earnings.
