That's capitalism baybe. The expectation of infinite growth in a finite system based around the infinite sales of infinite products that have a price because they say they are finite.
That's why people want to go to mars btw. Some people are economists/adventurers and can't stand still. Doing business on Earth however starts to be more and more damaging as we're exhausting the possibilities of healthy growth. That's why it's better to cease economic growth on earth and instead focus the "line must go up (at any cost)" people on Mars. Just my two cents from the ecological perspective.
Yeah sure, it's much more easy to colonize Mars than to do something about the Earth.
