If your argument is that humans should be less greedy then great I am on board. If your argument is that we shouldn’t seek to make everyone’s life better through economic growth then I will remind you that you can only post this article because your predecessors disagreed and we now live in a time which is healthier, wealthier and less violent (per capita) than at any other point in recorded history.
