Not following the logic here at all. What does an economy have to do with an ecosystem? What is "nature"? Are there Apex predator bacteria? How does an Apex preditor map to an economic actor?
This is as lazy naturalist fallacy as it gets.
- hux_ 9y agoNature doesn't have any great goal just like economies don't. They are just chaotic systems we pretend to understand to claim control. The temporary periods such systems achieve some temporary stablity is when heirarchies form. Talk to an ecologist, if you want more plankton in a fixed amount of ocean you have to kill whales. If you want more whales you have produce more plankton as in you need a bigger ocean. Same story with the economy whether you pick Genghis Khan or Mark Zuckerberg you can't produce them without millions of plebs.
