Capitalism is a garbage system which causes global warming,
Global warming is a natural process that occurs without us.
The issue really lies within how much we're speeding it up. At a natural, gentle speed, life will adapt as the planets conditions change, but if we speed it up too much then the potential for the species to adapt to it through fit offspring goes down exponentially.
If you're really so concerned about it, you ought to start killing cows, as they are responsible for 2/3 of our ammonia output, and produce about as much pollution as a car.As well as, screw over the majority of the people
The majority of people are basically screwed either way.
The question is closer to which majority ought to be screwed.Computers and most of technology has it's roots in state research, companies only build off of that basic structure.
A lot of what people are after these days is closer to Census Data.
Data on the population is basically the new oil standard.then you end up wasting $400 on a blender that doesn't even work.
This is why you need to look at product reviews before purchasing something.
I'm saying that it is the fault of capitalism as to why it is sped up, and continues to be, businesses don't care about the environment, they'd rather make a buck.
It's closer to being an issue with supply and demand.
Feeding this many people is not an easy task. While I do agree their their shortcuts taken do more harm than good (like fencing animals super closely together), this boom was from trying to meet a demand that otherwise appeared impossible to fulfill.
Meat isn't normally meant to be this readily available. It's through "Capitalism" that the demand for supplies could be met, and in a grisly dystopian sort of way they accomplished their goal of feeding a nation.
You could propose people go vegan or something to try to reduce our reliance on factory farms, thereby reducing the cow population and thereby reducing the amonia/methane content on the Earth, but I think you know how well that'd go.
My point of bringing up technology is to show why private companies are not that innovative, rather they just base their ideas off of state research which has been more effective.
I thought a lot of companies went with their own research departments so that they could have their advertisers stack the statistics and withhold releasing risky low chance side effects.
Sure, people should read product reviews
I do, and it's how I've ended up with things that last for at least a decade.
I don't buy shit like that, but it's a waste of resources to build shit that breaks or is flawed in design, and only serves to make companies more profit because it's cheap, easy to produce, and if it breaks, people can just keep buying new ones because they're fucking idiotic.
This is why you check the product reviews. Some things these days are still built to last.
My point is, nothing will change if you don't remove the system that generates said problems.
Do you understand why they try to sell a purposely faulty product beyond profiting off of the use of cheaper materials?
Anything they can only make money on by selling it once is considered "wasted potential" on the market. If you could sell 20,000 units once, why not design a way to make that profit more than once? The idea of selling a software license that can only be used on so many machines is like the digital equivalent of the same idea. Windows has tried to get around this by effectively charging a rental fee to use their OS. It's effectively the same thing without wasting materials.
If you can find a way for those companies to make as much money with one product as they would with multiple copies of that product, then you can try to fix the problem. As is, it keeps not just the crafters paid, but also the entire line related to materials and parts.
