Not to seem callous, but the first world could learn to live off of a little less.

Honestly this is what I keep saying and everyone gets pissed when I do.

There’s enough resources on this planet that every living human could live a decently luxurious life. But because we allow a small handful of us to hoard all those resources we have poverty on a global scale.

Whoa there buddy. That would put my butler’s butler out of a job. Also where does a person park their yacht if not inside another, larger yacht?

It wouldn’t even be less. We’d just have to reign in the capitalist feeding frenzy a bit.

2000 brands of shoes? Advertising? 99% of our production is wasted.
