Capitalism is cancer and corporations and billionaires are its tumours.
And the most successful among us are those gainfully employed to tend to the largest tumours.
Unless we fundamentally change this system, we can’t fix any of the existential threats facing us.
Humanity has cancer and we’re celebrating tumour growth instead of taking immediate and decisive action to rid ourselves of the disease.
