I hate that we live under a mental paradigm that the only thing that matters is efficiency, ad infinitum and ad nauseam.
Take one more step, and you’ve got it. Efficiency only matters because it maximizes PROFIT, and Profit is all that matters. We are Ferengi, at our core.
So the reason to do it is because uncontrolled, unregulated profit-gouging has made the Earth literally unliveable. We haven’t reached that point yet, but we are certainly on that path, and those who would protect us from the inevitable outcome, won’t even acknowledge that the problem exists, calling it a hoax, and even forcing their alternative hoax to be governmental dogma.
It seems like those who control the money have already decided that this is our future, so it’s perfectly acceptable to destroy this environment, in order to create enough profit to build the next environment, which will be reserved for the Sociopathic Oligarchs.
