        Not sure i agree. At the end of the day, woth so much wealth in the hands of so few, problems like starvation *could* be resolved in a heartbeat by individuals, not economies. When even individuals do not take theae actions, you cannot say the moral economy is to blame

        There is an anonymous blameless collective all feeding on % profits to whatever life the Earth sacrifices to reassure its digits remain on the rise. No visible catastrophes will it respond towards.

        In the end, when you whittle away all the academisms , it boils down to : do you think people should be free to make their own choices and bear the consequences. Or do we need experts to tell society what they can or cannot choose irrespective of externalities.

        Really the " dependable" - on the system are too easily hamstrung against all options available. Time equations to predictable disasters with zero remedy. Markets sacrifices - chaos versus chaos.

        Read "Research work" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amartya_Sen … . He saw 3 million die when food was plentiful and currency bombed. Top-down political will impotent and exploitative. We know already.
