A reflection from Blet Say
Our current economy is very inefficient and unjust. Because of our economy, which relies on capitalism, life is very hard for people to thrive in. There is so much that we really don’t know about our economy and possibly informing people about this crisis would help. The way we manage our home, at least in the United States is not very good. We rely on money and power. There is an unequal balance of the distribution of these two factors, and this causes problems for the people living in this world. We can shift this system by using the power of the people to make necessary changes. People, as a group, need to step up and cause a ripple effect, so that many more people will join the fight to shift our economy into a regenerative one. We use resources and only think about taking. Due to this, many problems occur. Today, we saw an example of what was happening, which was the “web of life.” There were so many strings being cut that it was really hard to get back to the position that we had started in. I learned that climate change was one of the problems that impacted us. Because of climate change, more natural disasters occur at a time when they aren’t supposed to. This adds to the economic problems. All of the money and power is being given to small groups of people. The government also ignores the people’s needs and use most of the funds on the military, which is a bit unnecessary. Because of this, people don’t have access to their basic needs. Not all of the people have healthcare, shelter, etc. In the United States, people are dying constantly due to lack of healthcare, and also much more frequently than in other countries. In conclusion, people are in danger, not only because of the system, but because of the effects it brings. I feel that the people’s needs are ultimately being ignored and that we can’t do anything about it unless we step up to change this system of economy.
