And guess what … most of the people who ‘did what they could’ just kept driving their cars. ‘What choice did we have?’ None.

    Nothing. It’s not our individual fault. It’s going to keep going no matter what you or I do (short of terrorism) until the whole thing crashes down around us.

      Sure but what can one tangably do? Go to areas that are probably going to do well (or just not terrible) in the coming years?

        To be honest the problem is we built a broken system.

        Part 1, most companies can’t afford to gamble. They can’t afford switching to paper straws, the margins are that tight and we wanna talk about cutting CEOs that will work for some companies but not most.

        Part 2, there’s no help from the government, any of them. they were all ineffective and more interested in flirting with resource wars than collaborating for the benefit of all.
