That’s what I’m saying, there is no nefarious plan, no evil billionaires, they are doing exactly what the market incentivizes. Human nature fallacy is just the same as the religion cop out. Any actual studies such as epigenetic research shows that humans are a product of their environment.

The goal of the market is infinite growth/acquisition. The ideal (for capitalists) would be rentism. The ownership class owns all housing/services and society would need to pay indefinitely, like a subscription model

Incentive fallacy. Jobs currently keep everyone from pursuing their passion. If jobs were automated, there would be more competition and time for people to develop themselves far more effectively than with what dismal amount of time is allotted after a grueling work week

No that’s the market system’s prerogative with the ‘green growth decoupling’ myths. Justifies itself by the recognition of scarcity yet due to its structural mechanics promotes and rewards infinite cyclical consumption lol. A steady state ‘sustainable’ society would destabilize nations in the market economy. We saw during the shutdowns how the earth started to heal just by us doing less. Earth overshoot day is a thing. Infinite growth, no regard for biosphere replenishment

Of course degrowth doesn’t work, the monetary market system is based on infinite cyclical consumption, which is why it must be phased out for a decentralized access based system, also known as a resource based economy. Trillions of stranded fossil fuel assets if we switch to renewables so that will never happen in the current state. Based on Ethiopias largest model corbetti, 460 geothermal plants could power the US. Earth overshoot day is a real thing. We must switch from Geopolitics to biosphere consciousness
