The Rut We Can’t Get Out Of

[Jackpine Radical]

2. In short, we need to humanize the world economy--

make sure the starving and destitute have enough, while rejecting consumerism for its own sake and allowing the workers to share more equitably in the products of their labor. Let people have good incomes and let them have more leisure time as an alternative to pushing them to produce ever more needless stuff.

I guess it all comes down to changing our value systems, and in particular, curbing greed.
