work illegally
something is seriously wrong with any system where work is ever illegal
We're also still plugging away at a tried and failed system, democracy and capitalism. So ya, things look kinda grim in the forecast while the majority of us either consent to doom or try to find the best loophole to
escape cope with it.
So, what's the alternative to capitalism in your book? Cause I don't see anything wrong with it. It's the only system, if unobstructed, that self-regulates. Everything else is artificially steered by humans, humans that are inherently incapable of seeing the bigger picture of all the interactions in a system as complex as our planet. And so far I haven't even read about anything that comes even remotely close to capitalism.
Democracy on the other hand... is just the opposite extreme of authoritarian regimes and ultimately not much different.
