Unfortunately, yes we need a lot of people buying what they have to have--and don’t need--to keep not only our but China’s economy growing at a certain percentage growth rate. A percentage growth rate is an exponential growth rate and is always unstable unless supported by other variables such as bountiful resources to exploit.

As has been predicted for a long time, the greedy exploitation of Mother Earth is now biting all of us in the ass and the greedy choose to not see what is in front of them. Greed, religion, population growth will probably not destroy the world as there will be corrections like epidemics, wars, revolutions, natural calamities and the poor and defenseless will continue to suffer the brunt of the corrections.

Now imagine hundreds of different employees all taking a small bite. The summation of the little bites can eventually drain all accounts, especially small accounts.

So in our society the poor and the lower incomes people are more vulnerable to the multitude of blood sucking ticks. I’d guess corporate ticks are one of the reasons for rising homelessness especially two larger ticks know as the medical and pharmaceutical ticks. In addition, These two larger ticks are carriers of different infections some that bribe all politicians, others that flood all airwaves and forms of communications with lies called advertisements, advertisements that take advantage of psychology and marketing research to influence the behavior of the herds of people.
