Do we need further proof that capitalism is foundering? Do we need further proof that ignoring the poor is not the way to make the world go round? That selfish accumulation of wealth is not the key to peace of mind and a life worth living?
The weirdoes who are presently at the helm of the world don't know a thing about what a good life is all about. A half-starving family in India may well have a more meaningful life than the hi-riding madmen who accumulate riches and who never stop striving for more – the very people who are ruining the lives of the poverty-stricken slum dwellers in the third world, people who were once farmers, poor but self-sustaining. Now they are scavenging on the garbage dumps on the outskirts of the big cities The goals in the lives of the poor rich people who are ruining the earth couldn't be more out of joint.
There is certainly no beauty in desperate poverty, nothing positive in being deprived of the comfortable lives of a majority of the earth's population, but the poor soulless billionaires who have set as a goal in their lives to destroy the lives of millions so as to wallow in luxury in their secluded mansions are the victims of their own selfishness and cluelessness.
Why haven't those criminals who are the mad founders of 'disaster capitalism' been tarred and feathered and ridden out of town on a rail a long time ago?
