Capitalism is important but it is a downstream effect of a society that does not prioritize egalitarian values.
A lot of the issues that hyper capitalism has caused can trace their nexus back to Reagan, who had majority support from Boomers at the time and whose policies have disproportionately enriched Boomers at the expense of future generations.
Even more recently a majority of Boomers have supported Trump, who appears to be accelerating the “sell out the public’s future for private riches now” ideology.
Unfortunately for us and them, this will be their legacy. Many of us are waiting eagerly for them to step away from positions of prominence in key institutions so that the rebuilding process can begin, if it’s not already too late.
Its nice to see that hope in your writings, that things will improve once boomers step off. I doubt you will be correct but I like it anyway. Lets hope for that. Cheers.
