      Which then needs someone in the real economy to make goods and services to back up the value of that money.

        Goods and services that nobody asked for and never needed at the expense of humanity and a finite ecosystem. We need to make sure to keep nativity numbers up though, that’s super important for the economy- got to keep growing forever, because we cannot have enough people, things, and more of everything, at any cost.
