Growth for Growth's Sake Will Kill Us All.

In addition to being unsustainable, growth has also become nearly useless for the non-rich, in countries under plutocratic rule. The benefits of growth are seized by the plutocrats so little benefit trickles down to the rest.

You can't expect a rising tide to lift your boat if the plutocrats have taken planks from the hull and demand you lease them back.

Thus, taking wealth from the rich is a more appropriate policy nowadays than growth.
