mass production, mass consumption in order to provide jobs,, can it continue???? No gorilla in the room look the other way. Just talk politics an economy class 101
It's not "in order to provide jobs". Obviously. People don't want to work. They work in order to consume. If people were satiated with consumption then there'd be no need to mass consume in order to provide jobs, since there wouldn't need to be more jobs per capita since people don't want to consume more. So that reason makes no sense. Consumption is the end itself, not a means. It happens because people want to consume.
I have seen jobs dry up in construction ,,dry up in these last 15 years or so. Just to much production from high skilled production orientated workers who make good money. No high demand for homes,,no high demand for a high skilled trade person. We are so dependant on cheap oil to make our economy and car culture continue. The problem goes beyond economy an politics,,,, that is what neeeds to be adressed , either we do or our kids surely will. They will wonder about us??
