The current global economy is structured on exponential growth.  Under this model, a “healthy” economy is constantly growing and constantly increasing it's rate of growth.  For example, instead of increasing by 1% every quarter, the goal would be to increase by 1% the first quarter, 2% the second, 4% the third, 16% the fourth, and so on.
