That because of the quality of the people with the capital. They hoard it, everyone eeks out survival, and the world goes to pot. If people with good ideas but no money had support to put their ideas into action, we would see change. But instead of harvesting hydrogen from water, and figuring out a low cost cooling method, we get “let’s mine/frack for hydrogen!” Like more mining/fracking is going to solve the problems mining and fracking are causing. Mine the asteroid belt, fine. But leave the earth alone, once you put chemicals into dirt it’s shockingly difficult to remove, that’s why clean up operations usually just replace the dirt, and old dirt is carbonized or ran through a wash to remove chemical spills… Don’t put crap into the soil and it doesn’t cause problems or need to be removed. But the people with the capital would rather dump chemicals in ground, and water, instead of finding a company that would buy the chemical waste for their own industrial purposes. Don’t tell me it’s capitalism when the people destroying the planet are literally losing money with their actions. It’s inbred idiots that should have never gotten their job other than knowing someone, or being related to someone. The same crap would happen under socialism by the same rich “elite” inbreds.
