    Wtf? Of course not. The workforce would be devastated if half of Americans had achieved financial freedom.

      Not if the goal was equilibrium/homeostasis rather than unsustainable growth/metastasis on a finite world of finite resources as it is today.

      That will never be permitted though. Humanity will destroy itself not out of hatred as once believed, but in the name of cold, insatiable, sociopathic greed.

        Yah we won’t stop using resources and fucking the air until we all die off. There’s no other way cause humans, specifically the humans in power with the ability to make change. Won’t. Cause cold hard cash.

      Yup. Workers in America desperately need more rights. But so long as there are unpleasant jobs thst have to be done, total financial freedom isn’t really possible. Even under a socialist/communist model.
