The time has already come when each country needs a considered national policy about what size of population, whether larger or smaller than at present or the same, is most expedient. And having settled this policy, we must take steps to carry it into operation. The time may arrive a little later when the community as a whole must pay attention to the innate quality as well as to the mere numbers of its future members.
John Maynard KeynesIt is investment, i.e. the increased production of material wealth in the shape of capital goods, which alone increases national wealth.
