People can’t budget and capitalism is failing. There’s no single answer here. It’s a combination of consumption culture, keeping up with the joneses etc and stagnant wages, rising cost of living.
That’s actually more scary to me than wasting time arguing about which is correct, it’s both. Not only is it exceptionally worrying but instead of waking up to it, far too many people busy themselves with judging others for not keeping up or spending beyond their means to try.
It’s equal parts scary and sad how few people are concerned about wealth inequality and how to fix it.
