Until Debt Tear Us Apart relevant economic analysis. collapse has many facets, and the "wealth pump" described by Graeber and the author of this article, is perhaps the most imminent threat. even resource depletion and climate perma-crises are relatively slow moving compared to the velocity at which resources have been gobbled up by the wealthiest 'elites', threatening all of humanity.

we all need to get serious about redistribution of wealth.

society as we know it may come crashing down, but there are mechanisms (taxes is a big one) to slowing down the free fall to a slightly more humane controlled descent.
