We&#x27;re at full employment in the sense that workers seeking a job can find one, but wouldn&#x27;t that figure not count those &quot;prideful workers&quot;?<p>Consumption must grow at the same rate as production, right? So either can be the limiting factor on economic growth, and investing at a rate that doesn&#x27;t match consumption growth is wasteful (it would be better for the economy if that money were expended on consumption instead), no?
