Corruption has reached levels that is destroying our civilization, while out of control regulations by government agencies choke the mostly middle to small guys. The US has more than twice as many bureaucrats as China controlling our country. Our regulations far exceed what China imposes. And yet even China puts a limit on how big and powerful corporations get. I do not want to be like China, but America is no longer a free country. And monopolistic corporations are a huge problem.

I don’t mind profit motives, ownership and prosperity. But becoming so egomaniacal to think you know what’s best because you’re obscenely rich is a whole level of totalitarianism that is not good for humanity.

Daniel Schmachtenberger explains so well what we know - corporate externalities can’t be socialized while the benefits and profits go to people in power and corporations. That’s not only unfair - it’s unsurvivable. Profit is a very loaded word in our kleptocracy and kakistocracy where the accounting is literally for lies.

I’m not saying vegetarians are not good people. I was a vegetarian for 10 years. I was just listing what they had in common. I find it abhorrent for these people to deny meat to others and try to control what we eat. I think we all agree being good stewards of our planet is prudent, but pushing climate scams, bioengineering the weather, destroying farmers, reducing livestock and looking for ways to control whole populations is not stewardship but power, control and gluttony.

Agreed. New systems must earn trust and take in multiple viewpoints, acting upon new incentives with common survival objectives- not power & profit motives.

These dickholes, as you call them, have the same limited outlook Hitler had. Hitler didn’t think there was enough open space for Germany. Our billionaires, psychopathic overlords, don’t think there’s enough resources, not enough air to breathe, not enough food, water, not enough energy. These friggin billionaires are so grotesque in their greed, they want to control it all and limit the people using “their” space. Here more they have in common, using humans as Guinea pigs to experiment their creepy drug madness in order to control, a meatless society, we all know Hitler was vegetarian, Hitler wanted to conquer the world to insure more space for his Aryan Germans, our psychopathic overlords want to control everything for themselves and maybe about a billion (manageable) slaves, insuring plenty of food and pristine vacation spots they can land their yachts in. The middle fly overs around the world, you know, where the rocks and cows live, will be ruled and maintained by these P.O.’s, you know, the people living amongst the rocks, eliminating the farting cows. Everyone will live in 15 minute smart homes monitored for temp, energy and overall credit scoring, driving EV’s, munching on insects and drinking grass juice. They will serve the ruling class. Schools will be completely eliminated and children will all undergo chip implants, spending their days playing and cavorting in virtual reality. Everyone will live in isolation, division and conquest, children taken from parents doing God knows what to them, because, you know, they’re so much better than parents. Not sure this is the Paradise God had in mind.

I believe Hitler was vegetarian, but so are many loved people in my life. Daniel Schmachtenberger is a vegan and teaches why he believes that’s important. In a new system that isn’t corrupt and run by corporate organized crime, I am willing to make changes for societal good, preservation, health, and humane stewardship of nature. It doesn’t have to be binary. We do need healthy food, from healthy farm families, and an end to factory farming.
