>Even if they get to just half of the US GDP

They almost did, $1.33 trillions is quarterly GDP, they need 20% more. They'll get that in a few years.

Resource exhaustion will become a soft limit pretty fast. I don't believe in Malthusian hard limits, but extraction and distribution systems may grow more slowly than demand even without hard resource limits.
