RE: Consumerism and the Graveyard of Prosperity
So much human time is wasted on maintaining this consumerist economy. We could be doing something better - inventing new technologies, building a moon base, exploring space..
But I think more importantly, if we stop wasting our time maintaining consumerism, we regain some level of freedom. That freedom allows to pursue the stuff we truly desire: exploration, progress, love, etc.
