It's kinda not really the older generations, though, it's more capitalism. Where does that start and end?

    Eh, I think we have to agree to disagree on that point, friend. I've seen a lot of quotes closer to the turn of the last century warning about capitalism, it's been going for quite a while. All through the industrial booms and a few wars were essentially fuelled by capitalist reasons. All that happened in India, British empire stuff, essentially capitalism. I could deep dive and find dates, but if you are interested, there's just so much to read about it, I wouldn't know where to start. You might find some fascinating (and troubling) stuff, once you start scratching the surface. I feel like I am only just scratching the surface. I'm looking for a good book to read on the subject so I have a more indepth understanding.
