I'm not sure it is fatalism. Could the past fifty years or so just be an anomaly? Is it that liberal democracies are inherently unstable as they scale up? Already, it's basically impossible to have a single-earner family, whereas I think that was pretty common in the post WWII years. And education costs continue to rise (my parents were paid a stipend to become doctors in the UK... those times are long gone now).
- crdoconnor 11y agoJust how exactly have you managed to convince yourself that it's not fatalism?
- locopati 11y agoThis may have something to do with deliberate decisions made around how much those who have plenty contribute to the society around them so that others may have enough.
