And... The Economy

I never studied economics. So I'm ignorant about how the economy works on the national, regional and global scale. Mind you, I'm probably not alone in that. And even the people who seem to know don't seem to know that much more.

I may well be wrong... but aren't we in trouble because we've filled our lives and our homes with crappy things that we don't need (at the same time as eating a lot of things that aren't actually food, and drinking a lot of things that are killing us)?

And now we don't have so much money, we're not buying so much crap. But because so many people's lives are bound up with making and selling crap to their fellow human beings, we're kind of stuck...

When we were all buying things that we didn't need like there was no tomorrow... we didn't realise that one day there would be no tomorrow...
