Like at some point won’t all of the profit be squeezed out of society?

    Yes, there is a limit.

    First, you need to look at the difference between 1. money and 2. value.

    That theoretical one rich person (or company) might own all money printing facilities in the world, and therefore can make endless numbers. That is money, not value.

    There is theoretically no limit for the money. But this is meaningless, because this kind of inflated money would be valueless.

    The one rich person might own everybody else, and all their belongings, and all that they can produce.

    That’s all the value then. That’s your limit.
