What about "endless growth for me, but fuck thee"?
- coldtea 3y agoIf you mean developed vs developing world, I'm more in favor of: "let's scale down growth and distribute existing wealth and resources more evenly, even if it means I'll go scale down compared to where I'm now and you'll scale up"
- cscurmudgeon 3y agoHow will you coordinate that? Short of a benevolent powerful global dictator (aka God), I don't see that working out. Will China scale down to let India prosper and be even with them? Will China scale down manufacturing to be level with the US? Will Europe be ok giving up their wealth to Russia?
- coldtea 3y agoGlobal revolution, or we're fucked. In other words, we're fucked.
- cscurmudgeon 3y agoProof for "we're fucked." Also Marxist notions of "Global revolution" are exponentially more fucked up than exponential growth. So, no thank you.
