Sacrificing prosperity to harm the enemy. In India, when the population had a little more money, they quickly armed themselves in preparation for a conflict with Pakistan. In Russia, Putin is turning the West against him, threatens it, and hacks it rather than investing in and engaging in trade and tourism with the West. This money is not invested in public services such as schools or hospitals. This approach stands in stark contrast to Francis Fukuyama, author of The End of History, who believed that once everyone has a sufficient standard of living, there would be no more conflicts. Bertrand Russell wrote a theory of motivation stating that there is pleasure in exercising power, even if it means destroying rather than building. Fortunately, some other countries are choosing to improve the quality of life for their populations rather than seeking out enemies to fight. Translated with DeepL and Ollama translateGemma

Over £41m in taxpayers’ money has been paid to a single housing association over the last three years.
That raises a simple question: what safeguarding exists once public money leaves the public purse?

The Dominican Republic wastes clean solar power, then buys costly fossil energy instead. Regulators allow fossil plants to break rules, while the public pays the bill. This is mismanagement serving old interests, not people or climate.

The economic elite don't need a rapture; they have gated communities and "network states." Both mindsets—"I'll be saved, screw the rest"—undermine the collective action needed to solve diabetic homelessness or climate crisis. Our duty is to the world we're in.
