In liberal capitalism people enjoy a lot of freedoms – so they can fully live out their individual ideas of what might or might not make them happy.
In theory you can be a Muslim gay men married to a lesbian woman (just because you can) and become an child care taker that as a second job works on weapons of mass destruction – while campaigning for peace on the weekend.
In the end – it is always about survival of life (not only the species homo often not-so-sapiens) on this planet – in the solar system – in the universe – in this reality.
At the same time – capitalism gives no sustainable concept for survival to the people – either you come up with your own plan (which might work or might fail miserably again and again) or you have no concept – you have no job – you do not know what to do – you basically go straight from school to state-sponsored-joblessness.
In communism – sustainable survival (as far as i know) was also not a high priority (taking care of nature) – liberal freedoms were not so big – the state decided for you what you would study – what job you would pursuit – because they had the data – where workforce would be needed in 3-4 years time.
I have heard young school children are so confused – they do not know what they shall study.
What career is worth pursuing.
Because it is not only important – that you like your job – it also should generate an income so you can build a house and survive as a family.
If you go to a state-entity that manages joblessness a “JobCenter” – they have a lot of data – a lot – but they still can not tell a school kid “if i was you i would do this and that”.
They can not.

So school kids are completely left in the dark.
What happens is often children learn from their parents – if they have a good job – they will do the same – if their job sucks (low job security, low pay or no work to do at all in this field) they most certainly will do something else.
There needs to be a sate given – binding – scientific sound and sustainable concept for basic survival for “the average jill an joe” living in “modern” high tech societies with modern fiat money.
If there is not – it is simply irresponsible – for the state and everybody – to leave people in the dark and let them figure themselves out how to survive and fix all the problems in their lifes.
This most certainly will lead to chaos and violence – because – even if you would give them “free stuff” aka fancy digital or colored paper money – people still need a purpose and meaning in their lifes.
what will definitely NOT fix the problem is raising rents and taxes (on things people need to survive) until breakdown of society. Running away from problems – just in case you have not noticed will also not fix them. Everybody should fix the problems in their own country.
After all people – families – just want to survive – in the US, in Europe, in Russia, in China, in India – everywhere if “the market” “the economy” “the monetary system” “the state” is not helping them – they shall step down and get out of the way.
Yes – it really is that bad.

The Gilet Jaunes are just the beginning…
… the rise of the far right will be way more devastating for “the world order” – because just as the left – their aim is to destroy the corrupt current status quo.
… but instead of fixing the problem – “the market” will just say “okay – far right got voted in – we just shift investments more towards the weapons industry and gas chambers”.

does not sound like a solution to me – actually not a solution at all – just the beginning of more catastrophes and problems.

You can close your eyes – but the truth – will stay true – no matter what.
The big “mistake” the far-right does: it does not question the monetary system.
It is simply not on their radar.
Because they see the problems somewhere else.
Which will lead them – again – to unsustainable and catastrophic solutions – even the far-right fanatics will have to admit – are no solutions.
