It would be nice to imagine a new form of economics that took into account 21st century advances…i.e. the virtual abolition of abject poverty ( in the west atleast) . instead of forcing us to use the economics that haven’t changed much in the last hundred/ two hundred years.. the only problem with that is the last set of ‘radical economics ‘marxism’ and communism was treated like the plague. Even small scale communes are treated with suspicion. The real question is

When will the climate be susceptible to a new form of economics that doesn’t include 19th century thinking, i.e. less than 10% of the population control the rest and have a better life than the majority.
