Ponzi World (Over 3 Billion NOT Served)

The globalized economy is a colossal Ponzi Scheme in which the vast majority survive on the bread crumbs falling off the table. The possibility of 7 billion people achieving a consumption-oriented lifestyle is zero, so the World Bank conveniently set the poverty line at $1.25/day to legalize global slavery. As long as someone else's children are doing the suffering, it's "all good". Post-2008, this illusion was extended merely by plundering all future generations.

Linear Extrapolation of the Asinine, Is The Bane of Humankind

First, dumbfucks attempt something inherently stupid; if by some random miracle it works once, they then proceed to do it over and over again until it implodes. Ideally, they will convince as many people as possible to participate.

Those who manage to survive - due to pure luck, merely ascribe their misfortune to a "Black Swan" event - extremely rare and totally unpredictable; and then they start all over again, until such time as they implode.
