I do wish @dang was around though, most of the comments in here don't reference the article at all, even though it's really insightful.
- jongjong 4y agoThe article touches on corruption but it dances around the root causes of corruption and the international debt-based monetary system which systematizes it. Woke politicians and economists are all too happy to talk up the cause of oppressed minorities until you point out the possibility that they are the root cause of the oppression... No, it's not the ancestors from a distant past who are the oppressors, it's happening now.
- imtringued 4y agoWhat I find strange is that economists declare the money/debt problem nonexistent except maybe Keynes who said you will have to either inflate money to erode debts or use something like the Bancor system where excessive balances are sanctioned with fees. Other economists just assume that all of this debt is 100% voluntary and could be paid back at any time.
