When profit became a goal of human activity, things turn into complete shit quickly.
All that planned obsolence, processed food, single-use things, finacial services and all that stuff is a product of profit-driven economy and nothing else.
And it is only beginning. It's not hard to imagine how that will develop, and picture is disgusting.
Also, profit-driven economy is a power source for aristocracy/elites and inevitably lead to globalism.
In the not so distant past some enterprises/corporations still valued such thing as reputation, and kind of tried to not make shitty things for the sake of profit. However, with development of advertising into brainwashing, even those who careв about reputation completely turned to profits, and you will not find anyone who try to make nice, reliable, long-lasting things for customers.
It is not a technical problem to make a car that will last forever with rare cheap service today. It will not even be expensive. It will generate an excellent reputation, but not much profits. So, it is impossible today.
I don't see any clear solution to that shit, but profit-driven economy have to be exterminated to prevent disaster in the future.
Funny, but that globalists dream of social credit system could be kind of partial solution, if applied to businesses instead of people, by people. Things reliability, cost of ownership, lifetime and other parameters could be used to score corporations. Corporations with low score could be forced to pay compensation to customers, to effectively cut their profits and so force them to choose other goal, like reputation or whatever else.
All advertising, except neutral and real product parameters should be banned forever. Any attempt to use any subconscious methods in advertising shoud be punished as fraud, criminally with jailtime. Say, car manufacturers shouldn't show a car running through pleasant landscape with something like "this car wil make you look cool" voice in background. There should be mpg, hp, trunk volume, cost of year ownership in terms of service costs and spare parts and other really useful information.
Basically, modern advertising is a pure brainwashing today, thats side-effect of profit-driven economy. If you can brainwash people to buy shit, then there is no any need to make decent things at all.
Really this is a huge conspiracy, that combines nearly all shit we have in our clown world, from fiat money everybody run after as stupid sheep to the globalism and jews. And all that combines into one thing - profit-driven economy.
If we want to do something about any of conspiracies we talk about, then we have to start with profit-driven economy.
No.
There is no any free-market in the world. Market is severely regulated by tandem of governements and corporations. You could easily check this in nearby grocery just looking on any product where you will find a lot of mandatory markings and data. Same thing is in any other area, from home appliances to cars. Rare things are not regulated by governement, really.
And even with all that regulations profit-driven coproeconomy thrive and destroy any remnants of nice things on the market.
Free-market in profit-driven economy (and society that measure success in money) will end with absolute coproeconomy disaster even faster.
If you have free-market, there is no any, even tiny limits where businessman obsessed with profit will stop. And he will have advantage over other, non so profit-driven businesses because he will have maximum profits and so more money to buy, destroy, cheat over competitors. There are no any limiters for such behaviour in utopic free-market.
Free-market could have some sense only if you remove modern concept of money/currency from equation. Only then, it could be really free, from the specific properties of money/currency that destroys this infantile dream of free-market. Money can't be good/bad f.e. So, in free market with money, one who will have more money, will always prevail. As soon as you began to speak about ethics and virtues, you inevitably come to some sort of external regulation of your free market. Unless you get rid of neutral money/currency concept.
So you need a government (or other third-party with same purpose) that will overlook over this state market, ban those who do not share common values from market, check philosophies of market participants and so on.
You just can't rely on the assumption that all market participants will be honest and will never lie. If everybody in community are honest and good people, there are abviously no need for any market at all, be it free or controlled. Such community will easily exist with pure barter. If you think that such communities does not exist, you are mistaken. They are. One of examples of such community where is no any need for any market is a traditional family. And it is working, effective and successfull community. Unfortunately, it does not scale well.
