the point with the Have's and Have Not's is an interesting argument. yet, you lack vision. the system you describe is (obviously) not sustainable, because ultimately you're gonna run out of Have Not's resources to spend. You need to develop your vision for a better world, one that can actually feed us all without slowly ruining it.
And sustainable housing is surely a part in this.
Oh, I wasn't arguing in favor of the system. I was just pointing out that if one was to look for the mustache-twirling villains behind everything, they wouldn't find them at Blackrock. The people working at Blackrock are simply deluded enough to think that they can stave off the pension bomb forever if they just keep the numbers going up forever. As you rightly point out, the system isn't sustainable. But as long as the overall economic system doesn't get the drastic general overhaul that it needs (but that nobody has the stomach for), it'll remain a Nash Equilibrium whereby nobody can move to end it unless everyone does.
