Ake says: "Yes I understand that "D", but our finances are finite..." That is at best arguable, and at worst clearly untrue, in a country with its own currency. Our resources are finite, but our finances are not. Look up Modern Monetary Theory. Ok, it has its detractors, including Krugman as well as some Austrian school economists, but is quite clear that the size of the money supply is a political decision, not a hard limit.
