Economic crashes are not related to capitalism. All human activity increases and decreases at different times. Capitalism is irrelevant.
Room temp IQ take.
It's true that civilization is inherently brittle but those ebbs and flows logically come from things outside of human control. Eg. natural disasters, crop failures, spikes in population pressure, etc...
In no sane universe does a society (producing 10x it's true resource demand) rubber band on the brink of destruction just because a few rich fucks need to make their high score bigger. The whole gambit of civilization is sacrificing individual flexibility for group stability, an economic system that misses that mark is antithetical.
Economic crashes are not related to the current political economic system? Lmao
Crashes will always occur, regardless of "the current political economic system".
No! Capitalism is literally cancer, it does not matter if your company is profitable, it need to be more profitable every year, it's just like cookie clicker but with limited resources it can not work, it's impossible to work on the long run, the crashes are part of the system
Any other political economic system where the profit is not the main goal could avoid this dumb logic that makes everybody pay for the bill of a few billionaires
What you're describing isn't capitalism.
