Neo-liberalism was never going to work, it is a pseudo-free market system that rewards corporations and the highest income earners, at the expense of economic stability. Makes you wonder whether modern-day economists even remember the turmoil of the 18th-19th century, with revolutions over the price of bread and rising inequality.

Well the problem is that the gov't is now controlled by the wealthiest elites so yeah as much as I talk about the problems, where you even start with the solutions is mind-boggling.

Sigmund Freud defined four parts of a psyche; the id, the ego, the superego and the stratego. The Stratego being the highest form of morality and scientific thinking.
