Where is she wrong though?
It is not easy to explain this with in a thread but if you learn the rise of our modern world it will make sense why there are starving people. Yes there are solutions but you can't just make everyone that happy, don't forget that humans are greedy and don't trust and cooperate with each other for no reason.
"people starve because CEOs want an 8% return on their capital" doesn't change anything about this.
History is in fact full of examples of you being wrong
but it seems to me that most sustainable and only living(dont bs me with china, cuba, iran and others many of them are problamatic except china which many people still suffer) system is capitalism, if you consider more than 8 billion people and each one of them only care about their own local communities(familt, friends etc.)(I ignore small percantage of people who are charity workers etc.) it will make sense I hope
Sorry but no. Humanity's impulse is to help one another. A system that rewards greed instead is doomed to fail, and it is indeed failing.
If capitalism is the best - why is it leading to the end of the world?
I guess we will see
Must be nice living so comfortably that you can be flippant about such things. Already got a bunker filled with slaves?
Yeah, comfort probably effects me
