I find people's belief in Money's ability to solve problems hilarious. We've been patching over problem after problem and every bill is coming due. We need nitrogen. We started making it with hydro carbons. Now we have toxic algae blooms, AND now we're running out of fossil fuels to make nitrogen.
We've written a check we aren't able to cash. The solution isn't to keep writing checks.

- lindseymysse 5y agoLol, like climate change and disinformation. There is no one with money who is interested or capable of solving our problems.
