In reality, it just proves our current lifestyle is artificial and whatever problems we are facing capitalists have brought on people by addicting them to luxury and comforts. |
I don't think capitalism has failed I think that we became complacent and lost our innovative spirit. Perhaps we need this challenge to get back to where we once were. I have no doubt in my mind if we had spent the last 25 years working on alternatives to fossil fuel and real fuel efficiency then we would have it. I mean we made it to the moon in ten years off a promise and nothing else.
