Since most of us are pretty simple, why do we live under such a complex system?

Is it an inherent property of the system or just a way for the elites to herd the common folk away from their own self-interests?

What role do you think scarcity and greed play in all this?

For me, life is not hard nor complicated. What hard is how you live with it. Yes, I agreed that we live under a complex system where the people who should be concerned seems to look away with the main problem and deal (most of the time) with unimportant issues. As far as I can see, our system is bound with self-interests and greed.

I agree with you. People, nowadays, think of themselves only instead of working together. It seems that our society do not think that teamwork produces greater output. The seats are occupied by people bounded by greed that instead of using power to help others, they use that power for themselves.

and indeed it is. Why then many run to work in the team, not from it. Some feel good at home, while others at work breathe freely. But so much is still influenced by the means for life, which are very hard to get and still need a lot of money.
