Crises are a feature of capitalism. Marx talked about this. Things become hell for the working class, and the capitalists reap the rewards.
That being said there is yet to be a system that does not have crises.
The difference is nobody wants to fix them right now, instead misdirecting people toward "woke DEI" and "government waste" as if reducing these will magically fix the crisis.
That simply isn’t true. There are thousands of economists all around the world trying to fix these problems.
What you are talking about is grandstanding politicians in America which isnt reflective of all nations.
