and this is why I think I'm a degrowther. current economy is so obsessed with producing more and more and more, but all these things are fragile and tearable like paper. this wastes so many resources, pollutes our environment, and also, gets our money stolen for the rich we don't need to produce million things a day that last mere moments before they break or go bad. we need to produce things that can survive the test of time and are reliable, with minimal waste. and of course this goal is incompatible with capitalism. because capitalism is about growth or money making even when it comes at expense of other people |
I mean, that's a very good strategy for capitalists and corporations: you give them money more and more and more often because everything they sell you is unsustainable crap and there are no alternatives
