    i agree, but unfair market monopolies and lobbyism is what caused the housong crisis in the first place and those will continue to exist in other economies as well if we don’t legislate against them. the free market gives people the power to fuck over others. people have forgotten to include the philosophical counterpart to “as long as it doesn’t infringe upon the rights of others” in their capitalism because they were too busy cooming over their agency

    the US and humanity as a whole is too tribeminded to instinctively act cooperatively across communities, and especially borders, which is why we need to systematically make it impossible for anyone to be left in the dirt. there is no human we do not have the resources to give a happy and fulfilling life, so anyone asking for more at the cost of that should be fucking beheaded, if you’re serious about minimizing human suffering.
