Terry Gou, the billionaire founder of major Apple supplier Foxconn, announced on Monday a bid to be Taiwan’s president in January elections, saying he wanted to unite the opposition and ensure the island did not become “the next Ukraine”.
Gou is the fourth person to throw his hat in the ring, but his poll numbers before his announcement put him well behind the front-runner, the ruling Democratic Progressive Party’s (DPP) William Lai, who is currently vice president.
I was reflecting on the original comment since that is the origin of this debate.
And I did not mean that as a sincere question whether you know an alternative structure to capitalism. I think you cannot avoid it as it is inherently part of whatever you do, that is what I have been pointing out in multiple paragraphs.
I dont think there is a way to make it work better for the majority. Larger systems have unavoidable exponentiality and slower self-correction ability.
Except maybe some of the wealthiest countries that have no natural resources. Those are usually pretty uniform.
I think the highest aim is almost always progression and growth. The right circumstances are most likely the lack of easily exploitable resources within a certain society.
