Actually it rewards those willing to take "risk"…you know, like actual producers. It's entirely incentive based. Look around and you can see plenty of folks with a lack of that incentive....

Our economic system is basically a scam, a markets-rule-no-matter-who-or-what-gets-hurt organizing principle guaranteed to make a few rich & the majority unable to get there. It’s a corporate aristocracy that views most people as serfs & finds democracy inconvenient. VOTE IT OUT

You think the problem with millions of children who go to schools that don’t even have functioning toilets or minimum school supplies is that they are “risk-averse”?? They’re among millions who take a risk simply walking down their street each day. And where are their incentives?

Are you talking about our economic system or the failing public school system?

The 2 are related; economics that puts markets first above all else, & a govt that is its handmaiden, by definition are willing to neglect the well-being of children. Children do not work and therefore have no economic leverage by which to influence the system on their own behalf

And most of those streets they walk down in danger are controlled by people who claim to have their best interests at heart, but use their positions of power to enrich themselves at the expense of the less fortunate. #pickacityanycity #youknowitstrue
