For over 50 years now, I have mostly voted right of centre. Given the issues we have across the globe such as #climatechange #inequity #socialbreakdown and others, which arise from overexploitation of natural resources and ecosystems, could someone who supports #capitalism please explain to me how a system that relies on perpetual growth can be sustainable and just? The world has finite resources to sustain life and limited capacity to absorb harm. The more I think about it, the lefter I lean.
