When I was a kid, I used to see bad things on the news, illegal logging in the Amazon, species going extinct, toxic pollution, deliberate oil spills, ethnic cleansing, famines, political corruption, rabid corporate greed, and I believed the silver lining was “Now that everybody knows about it, people will work to stop it.”
I was way too old when I realised almost nobody does.

Almost nobody does because cash is king and cash feeds. That’s why we’re all loaded with debt so we’re subservient.
