Infinite growth is inherently unsustainable. Deciding on a number where you think your country works and there is wealth to go around, is the hard part.

The problem ISN'T that there's too many people for the resources available. It's that most of the resources are hoarded by a few thousand billionaires, leaving artificial scarcity for everyone else, especially the most vulnerable groups.

Which will also be the groups worst affected by misguided at best (but most likely deliberately eugenic) ideas like hard and fast population limits.
