The Steady-State Economy vs. "Growth"

[catherine]

Conversely, 50% of the population call the other 50% greedy, uncaring and selfish, making it hard for them to feel good about supporting their critics.

Don't you think that if paradigms were formed that enabled us to see us all as one body and not a collection of parasites and hosts, we might be able to disable the labels of "greedy" and "undeserving poor"? And how might we achieve that? Perhaps by making interdependence a higher value than independence.

Nature flourishes on the precept of interdependence. We have lost that, to our detriment.
