Isn't there an argument where humans arnt' here just to be fleeced? I mean who came first ? the chicken or the egg, are we just creating the monster that'll devour us? In a twisted way the profit motive basically is anti ecological, after all people talk about shareholders but they're just some pension fund who won't be around when we're under water.... I realise capitalism helps us find the most efficient solutions, but at one point we're the ones being milked (to death) and some big cheese(Welch GE) finds a way to create wealth by creating debt and then 20 years later they split it up to create more bubble wealth it becomes ridiculous and you're throwing the baby (us) away with the bathwater...
A good plan should never have "and then people act against their own interests" as a step.
