You can "print" unlimited amount of money but Earth resources are limited, moreover its usage is overshot (Earth Overshoot Day is 29 July 2019). So the problem is how the money is spent. We should tax money that spent to decrease Overshoot Day.

Earth's resources are limited over a given timespan, but most of these resources are not exhaustible, particularly not hydrocarbons.

Given that all human populations that have reached a certain standard of living so far have ceased to grow beyond replacement levels, overpopulation is likely not going to be a long-term concern either.

It is therefore not a problem to overshoot for a while, assuming that we eventually reach a level of technology that lets us maintain our standard of living in a sustainable fashion.

Earth's resources are decreasing over a given timespan because we both spent exhaustible resources and produce wastes for future generations. It can’t be sustainable system.

There is no evidence that overpopulation is not long-term concern. Look at Africa, India, China

New technologies are not guaranteed. You can’t simultaneously give less and less time and resources to your children and ask them to be better than you. They will choose to continue your tactic until civilization collapse as future generations can't vote

Hydrocarbons didn't form themselves. An energy source is required to remove the oxygen from CO2. If it is possible to tap that energy source directly, then depending on energy from hydrocarbons is incredibly irresponsible because high concentrations of CO2 make the planet less habitable for most life including humans.
