Yes, "People aren't literally starving" is incredible progress for humanity. Progress which has coincided with the incredible wealth creation (not transfer, those things are different) of modern times.
Would you prefer to go back to a time were people were literally starving?
- smallmancontrov 4mo agoThis argument, better articulated by Thomas Hobbes, would be right at home in 1651 were it was busy justifying the economic mismanagement of that time as well.
- parineum 4mo agoAnd what argument are you making? That starving is good?
- smallmancontrov 3mo agoNo, that you should advance your thinking past the 17th century.
