In the past they would’ve been old and grumpy and then died before they could cause real problems. Now with old people living longer than ever they can fuck things up for the rest of us.

    No, capitalism is a system that encourages and rewards greed and lack of empathy. It is directly part of the problem.

      Yes, it is part of the problem… the symptom part.

      You’re saying, “There’s a monster that’s killing people.” I’m saying, “Yes, but you’re pointing at its foot. We need to aim for the head.”

      You’ll never get rid of the problem by trying to address capitalism in isolation. Even if you were successful, the problem would simply return under a new label.
