Proving once again that every man-made problem on Earth can be solved through appropriate resource allocation, which is only hindered by those hoarding the wealth, and those in our governments whom they pay to protect their wealth from practical use.
Wait, but it's on track to being completed. I think this doesn't support your argument people think it supports.
I mean, in this individual instance, people with money gathered together and started solving a global problem. The poor people didn't do shit. The hoarders of wealth gave freely to fix the problem. Capitalism saved the day here, comrade. Now, quit littering, so they don't have to do it again.
It's futile to fight this type of internet rhetoric with logic. The sophomoric arguments of pure communism, socialism, or capitalism are made from great minds of the early 1900's. Yet people in lemmy flock together behind "capitalism" is bad.
Why use logic against childish arguments. It's more satisfying to poke at the echo chamber.
Except it actually isn't. If you read the article, they say they could clean up the whole thing by 2034 but they need 7.5 billion dollars. So in fact people with money haven't actually done anything yet.
I see that's what this crowd is getting out of the article. Title literally mentions it's on track. And funds have been raised and being raised by the evil rich.
