It's bonkers to me that some people have billions while I often go hungry purely due to lack of money. Why can't people see how unnatural this is? Has anyone read the Earth's Children series by Jean Auel? It's about cavepeople, but it's such a prime example of how society should be. No-one owns land, everyone is free to hunt and forage as they see fit. The only things people own are basic things like their clothes and arts and crafts that they make and trade with each other. It would be crazy to them if someone said "This land is now mine, you must pay me 50% of all your arts and crafts if you want to live here, pick the plants here or hunt the animals that live here." And yet, somehow the course of human history has led us to a place where a few have more money than they can spend in a lifetime, while millions starve. Why are we standing for this?
