Wealth is there to motivate people to do something more than dwell and ruminate. If there was a wealth cap or maximum amount of money you can have no one would have motivation to do all these things we have like companies and such. It’s not so black and white. Currently probably the best bleeding edge system is doughnut economy where power of capitalism is constrained to non essentials from one side and planet health from another. https://www.kateraworth.com/doughnut/ Netherlands if I remember correctly currently is doing something in that direction and generally eu capitalism is somewhat constrained

Unfair stuff. I never had to work even tbh. I mean I did some because it was like an adventure with a friend. annoying that not everyone can just live and don’t worry about those things. I really would like it to be like this for everyone but I don’t feel I have any power to make it happen other than voting which I do for the left and even socialists. It’s still hard to understand honestly all the doom prophecies and such from my pov

"Anarchist"

Truly pinnacle of naivety. Everyone that wants to focus on empathy and wellbeing already does so, limits or not and those that don’t care won’t care World isn’t bad because capitalism, world is bad because there are bad people

Deeply unserious
