Well, I would like to agree with you, but "moustache-twirlingnes" is in all of us; it is called greed and lust for power and money. Our political and economic systems in the state of the things they are right now have not created on their own. All our systems are the human product - created through many iterations with a very similar theme and always done by similar actors - an elite that can influence those policies and the elite that have the right to invent and pass new policies, which is, to say the least, very corruption-prone process. For instance, policies created after 1973 created a mismatch between productivity and salaries; basically, the working force become constant losers and elite winners. https://www.epi.org/publication/charting-wage-stagnation/ https://www.epi.org/publication/charting-wage-stagnation/ https://files.epi.org/2013/ib388-figurea.jpg https://files.epi.org/2013/ib388-figurea.jpg At this point, who is to blame for those policies? And more importantly, when it becomes evident knowledge, who is to be blamed for keeping the state of things as it is? Treadmill and the rules it runs on - are built by humans, and if we did built it, we could change it too.
