@garbados What I would say, though, is that these macro phenomena are very often the result of aggregated actions. You just want a better bank account, so you get one with no fees and the bank gets the money it needs by using your money for aggressive investments, like real estate speculators that keep homes empy… it is not easy.
I think we should first and foremost apply sane principles like modesty (recognizing when you have enough), and solidarity (enough to give)

@garbados I wanted to say "well, that's not so simple", but in fact no, you are spot on: no defense.
