    Ehat Horus fails to mention is that the new wealth created is then funneled abroad, manufacturing and productivity is offshored and cheap labor is imported to undermine the existing workforce.
    The system he advocates only exists as a positive within a closed system.

    Where is the Quality and efficiency that was promised at the start?
    Today several decades after the sackings and sell-offs, what has actually happened to the products produced in the West? Everything has been destroyed hasn't it?
    If that is accepted then you redefine Corporations as an acceleration of Entropy, where as Evola says these groups "subtract themselves" from the ordering of society that they cannot bear any more and start consuming it.
    The damage is irreversible and is an outright attack on the organism, that can have only fatal consequences.
    The desperation by the Billionaires to "live forever" or to be resurrected in a machine, as well as the widespread adoption by society of strange new ideas, is a society that will soon be gone.

      I think the elites overestimated the middle class, because our class system hadn't been based on merit for a long time. If we had a more equitable system, and "swapped" the intellectuals of the lower classes with the the midwits of the middle classes and tried it again I reckon it would work out much better. We really could have had it all, if we had more brains about it.

    There was eventually a big crash. It happened in 2008 and we're now living with the technocratic response to that, which was the market manipulation of interest rates through QE, which, in my opinion, has done more to drive wealth disparity and societal strife than anything in these documentaries so far.

    I would have thought that a huge drop in the pound would destroy the bond market and the international trade on the london stock market. When your currency drops a large amount against other currencies it makes your markets crash as people are selling and you can end up with a run away negative spiral. My investments in other currencies drop and rise mainly due to the exchange rate more than any kind of performance of the stock.

    Firing workers to provide higher returns to shareholders is short sighted, it is also counter productive, it does not generate higher productivity, new products or higher profit margins. At some point the company will be asset stripped/sold off or merged to preserve shareholder revenues - if it has not been hollowed out and made insolvent first. Avarice - it always comes down to that ugly word - greed. For someone who grew up in the 80's I can't help thinking Curtis' biases keep throwing a spanner in the works, it always seems to be a particular someone/something's fault. That simply isn't the case. This is what happens when you ignore the larger picture of history and you attempt to build your castles out of sand.

    Those anti-system former major players are not actually against the current trends or actions that formed these trends. They were abroad with all their stuff when it benefited them and only started to vocally resist when the train had no seats for them personally.
    It would be too idealistic to assume that some good people would defeat bad people and tendencies. Still, sometimes bad people can do some good for humanity as a whole by biting each other. So, we can only hope that current state of affairs will eject more major players so through the quarrels of these some good may arise.
