Kind of shoots a hole in any claim of Fox News conservative bias.

lol. No, it doesn't. Then again, even some conservatives have limits.

A Steady State Economy
A steady state economy was envisioned by John Maynard Keynes, the economist that shaped most of our economic theory and policy today, as well John Stuart Mill, another founding economist. Both realized that a growth economy was a means to an end, not the end itself. They recognized that we would at some point be able to put behind us this growth for something better – focusing on development of our society. They’re not the only ones, either.

You should read more about the steady state economy, because we will reach it either by destroying our ecosystem (and likely our society) and being forced into it by mother nature OR we can choose a sustainable path in which we maintain our society and ecosystem for future generations, finding a balance and focusing on developing things like social justice, increasing our knowledge, and enlightening ourselves. These are the higher paths that we all want – happiness, prosperity, and increasing wellbeing – these do not require the size of the economy to increase.
