>No one working, everyone consuming

How would this even be possible, in an economy that is roughly 80% services? All there is to "consume" is the output of someone else's labor. If nobody is working, there is nothing to consume.




Of course it's possible. "No one" is hyperbolic, and just means that demand is far greater than supply. That means inflation. Now Grandma can't afford a plumber.
