Decadence and Indulgence of previous generations (looking at you baby boomers, thank you for handing us a burning planet and calling it an healthy economy), planned wars and other agendas designed by high powered politicians and national shotcallers.
Its a sad state of affairs and im curious where it will peak before it gets better again, i hope it will happen soon so we can at least enjoy a few decades of living in a better economic situation.
