    Ok. So what should I be doing about it now? I’ve been on the recycling train for 30 years, I ride my bike instead of driving as much as possible, I compost and grow vegetables with it to name a few things. What else would our corporate overlords like me to do while they do nothing but gouge us?

    It’s disgusting that I first scrolled past this headline and shrugged before coming back to make this comment.

      The reality is that this is not a problem that can be solved by individual action. The only way forward is systemic change away from the capitalist system where large industry is owned by the oligarchs. What people in the west need to do is to start organizing a movement for socialism before capitalism kills us all.
