3 c's have destroyed your life, financial speaking.

credit: excess credit availability has driven up the cost of everything: land, homes, education, cars, cell phones, and now even goyslop. back in the 1980s using credit was rare outside of home/auto/personal loans. today it's everywhere and it's making prices explode.

cattle: US and word population have exploded, creating an insane amount of competition. US population is up like 70% in 50 years, world population is up over 100% in 50 years. not only are you now competing with US population growth for a dwindling number of jobs, but also the eternity of the third world and their economic output.

computers: computers augment everything that is bad in our economic environment. computers facilitate credit transactions, computers facilitate work automation and the ease with which foreign goods are imported (more competition for you), and computers facilitate more expectations for you in the workplace.

1. modern economies can't function without credit and more credit usually means more wealth (as long as credit is used to increase productivity and not for mere consumption)

2. more people = larger economy, this is good for everyone involved

3. technology makes everything cheaper and everyone better off, this was the most retarded point

Top kek your mind on some economic bullshit.
For starters economy per person matters but also too many people means less ressources per person, overcrowded places, less fun holidays, less nature, more pollution, more expensive houses.
I agree with the billionaires as far as saying we should half the earths population.

Inequality. Exceptionally high earners bust credit algos. They look extremely good on paper, which makes it overly tempting for creditors to loan them large amounts of money at extremely cheap rates. Once this has started, high earners can continue overconsuming, bidding up the price of assets, and making risky investments, safe in the knowledge that that have come out on the right side of the, "If you owe the bank $1 billion," question. The can WILL get kicked; only token sacrifices will be made. There has to be a ceiling on personal wealth, there has to be a common understanding of the perils of overproduction and overconsumption, and there has to be a better balance of labor capacity-divided-by-population-divided-by-environmental-carrying-capacity's share of our common understanding of wealth (that's your cattle bit).
