    Why does the world seem adamant on having the entire economy close to collapsing throughout my youth?

    Nothing to do with your youth, it's been like that before and before. Stability isn't a characteristic of the economy within it's current systemic setup (aka capitalism). In other words: a market-driven economy is inherently fragile.

    Too true. Capitalists love to talk about getting rid of fat in companies, having a lean system and minimal inventory.

    Fat is part of your hormone system and helps one survive a famine.

    Any businesses over leveraged at the moment are going to feel a crunch... Mind you the epically large ones will expect a taxpayer bailout and bonuses too...
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    It has become increasingly unstable (aka more market crashes) since the 1980-ties. A new global crash between 2018-2022 is to be expected.
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
