Mnementh said: Reform capitalism. That's the only thing that *can* be done about it. As long as their is put value behind a number going up things will keep happening. It's not even if that number is even meaningful. After a certain point of richness more money is not bringing you more happiness or anything valuable. While at the same time even a little money does a lot if you are poor. Companies optimizing profits (and therefore leaving more and more people in the dust) ends up with more people in bad circumstance and the few winners don't even really enjoying their winnings. We have to stop this fucking rat race, it is ruining our health, the environment, our happiness and most importantly: our future as human civilization. This here is the last years of the roman empire. We will have to change or our civilization will crumble. |
We would be back at square one the first serious financial crisis that hits our way. The US and Western Europe spent almost sixty years trying to reform capitalism and then Reagan and Thatcher showed up.
