You may be right, but if we don’t rethink our consumerist lifestyle until the whole thing breaks down, how long will it take to make all these fabulous changes that will save us? We’re pretty selfish as a whole, and aren’t usually willing to tolerate much change without the required chaos.
If we don’t have jobs, and food prices skyrocket due to crude/”flooding the world with corn and wheat”, we will be able to feed ourselves, but we wont be a we. The agribusinesses wont just give us the food. The American people are screwed.
America is going down the shitter.
It’s painful, and we’re all in some level of denial.
