    This is my biggest concern. Like whatever on economy. Do I want more for everyone? Absolutely. But those can come back in 5-10 years.

    The environment doesn’t have that long. We had the hottest summer and about to have the coldest winter and they are all like “let’s go orange man!” And not giving a fuck what they leave for the next generation. So fuckin selfish. I hate them so much.

      They don’t care because they will be dead before they ever see the effects of their selfishness. They will literally never have any consequence.

      I’m sure they know in their hearts that their descendants will suffer and die because of what they do today, but they don’t plan on ever feeling bad about it because at the end they will be safe, warm and comfortable in their beds, surrounded by their loving families, after a lifetime of luxuries. Everything to gain and nothing to lose. Why not fuck the planet?
