It sounds like you're confusing profit and productivity. Productivity means how quickly/efficiently you produce stuff (goods and services); profit means how much of what you produce someone else TAKES from the people who produced it. I think people are more productive when less is taken from them. The trick here is that when we work for a wage it seems like we're getting something, when in fact a large part of what we do or make is legally stolen by the boss/owner. Don't you feel more productive when working for yourself (fixing your house up), friends (helping someone move), or family (cooking at home, reading to your kids) than working for your fuckhead boss?

> all the more need to end profit and just produce things simple for USE.
But Profit per se' aka productivity is indispensable and justified. We'd never have
gotten out of the caves without it, if you think about it (even though we may very well
be forced back into the caves because of (also our sociopathic immaturity towards) it.).
If all we only did was replace what we use, we never would've come out of the caves in the first place.

Bankers? Actually, the "ruling class" is made up of all kids of people who usually serve in government, private industry, academia, and sit on all kids of boards of directors, belong to major think tanks (Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commision, etc). And you got the point about business moving on to more profitable things right--so all the more need to end profit and just produce things simple for USE.

Revolution. Who do you suggest we start killing first?
Take the profit out of oil & big business will move on to something else with a larger profit margin.

The main way to affect climate change is not the bullshit we hear in the media about everyone turning off a light, but by forcing the capitalists (who care nothing about the planet, only about making immediate short-term profits) to abandon their oil, gas, and coal industries and switch to solar, wind, etc. And since that it not immediately profitable for them to do this, the only way to get this done is through revolutions!
