Capitalism pushes me to live comfortable life?

Or that are very ineffective. > “You will own nothing and be happy”? Yes, definitely. Suggesting you rent for rare occasions is the same as owning nothing.
- epolanski 3y agoBuying stuff we don't need because of far-fetched edge cases creates insane amounts of pollution. Most of those far-fetched edge cases have simple solutions (such as renting). I can't count the massive amount of stuff we have at home and don't use at all despite my active pushing against those, literally everybody I know is in the same situation.
