These problems in this comic strip were not caused by capitalism, they were caused by finance.
Since the 70s, the boomer generation borrowed and borrowed and borrowed from their children’s future and sacrificed their unborn children and grandchildren to live their cheap low labour lifestyles. The pumped the markets with cheaper and cheaper fake dollars to fund wars, juice markets and build their dreams.
Now the bill is coming due and you are going to pay one way or another.
Blame Keynesianism, blame Nixon, blame Reagan and blame the selfish me-first generation for not thinking past the backs of their refrigerators or past the ends of their filthy tailpipes.
Actually, the financial class captured the political class to unlock more and more financialization methods. Meanwhile, business interests captured the courts to open the political class to more and more bribes.
What happened here in the states can happen anywhere. And if your own nation is being run with neoliberal policies, it’s going to happen there too.
