On Capitalism and Money
We live in an era of capitalism and consumerism; the modern era of the 2000s is driven by capitalism. Past and future eras may operate differently, but this is purely the perspective of How the present world operates. Future societies may find other ways to operate the world, but it is likely for capitalism and consumerism to persist in the span of our lifetime. Because we will only live for a short period of time, we need to understand how capitalism works, what it means, and what its implications are on the world, people, and humanity.
