And we still have to play the guessing game where we try to estimate the number that the government already knows, but won’t divulge to us, like some sort of fucked up psychological game.

This shit is so fucked. I’m awaiting the collapse.

This is when daddy marx reels you into his pleasure house by telling you about how he predicted all this shit and had advocated for the dictatorship by the proletiariat, capitalism has always been doomed and the reagan bullshit about the trinkle down economics is why there is such a resurfacing advocacy for the leftist doctrines.

Couldn’t they also be a mathematician? The Pointcarré recurrence theorem is a good example of infinite rate in a fixed dimensional space. Also, that quote really oversimplifies environmental engineering, the ozone layer has been fixed by the kyoto convention because every person with the simplest understanding of the carbon cycle can understand why the earth has been able to sustain ressource consumption for all animals and can still do so for a very long time still, infinitely or not.

IMHO mathematicians go into the madman category.

Obligatory

At times when we cannot understand the causality of a problem, it is better to acknowledge what we know, and importantly, what we do not know.

Rest, and relax, math is not the issue here, the problem is ignorance. And you have just posted a tribalistic fallacy believing that things are simple, us vs them and the system being akin to big brother. Nature is more complex than you think and so is a reality in which over 8 000 000 000 exist, and all pitch in to the pool of what the future will always carry back.
