Normal is the Real Problem

Our obsession that everything has to be based on profit maximisation and shareholder value has created a nightmare economy for many. The theories guiding our economic decisions are obsolete as they do not account for the negative externalities when we take from the natural world.

“The world has enough for everyone’s needs, but not for everyone’s greed.” ~M K Gandhi

We must stop seeing all progress—individual and collective—as economic growth. Quantification and statistical measurement cannot be all powerful. We must change our prevailing attitude. The attitude that the power of money bestows.

>> Of possessing before belonging.

>> Of usurping before sharing.

>> Of depleting before replenishing.

Without even an iota of guilt or remorse.
