Basically, yes, but what if just beneath that unknown we are to embrace there's something much more familiar than what we think. My economic theory was based on an episode of a ST Next Generation until I read Charles Eisenstein's Sacred Economics–––because before that in my mind money itself was the problem, but really it's not, it's those who have it and what they do with it (which means ALL of us, yes, but to whom much is given is the other part of that equation)
And for this reason I tend to think your assumption might better be framed as, "what is it you wake-up every day chomping on the bit for?"
I for one think the role of a cog is spot on. But I'm NOT your average Duck either.
Capitalism needs to work better plain and simple. How does that happen? Regulations for one, but go ahead and open that pandora. Double dog dare ya... again my position is we can't rest, because we have an obligation to fix.
FOR the past five years i have been subjected NOT just in a metaphorical sense, but in a real hands on demonstration of the problem we can't see because it's right in front of fucking faces. Yet most importantly I have list of action items longer than my dick typed out singl spacd with an 8pt font.
For five years I've been subjected to a handful of individuals that are beyond just rich (measured in the financial sense of the word, yet some even in other senses too) who seem to have taken the vow that the more they rides buses and score food from food pantries somehow makes them more accountable, meanwhile they lie every second they can, initially having befriended me under false pretenses; plotting to have me evicted from the apartment i'm offering them shelter in. Why? Because they are adult children, that do not know how to manage what they been given.
Next up, action items. ANYONE care to know,
just ask.
