  1. We will never have meaningful change under our current system of capitalism that prioritizes short-term gains at any long-term expense or even just shifting the consequences onto others which many corporations seem to be masters of. Oil companies for instance receive billions in subsidies which take money from poor people and give it to rich shareholders in the form of dividends on top of profiting off of poisoning indigenous populations who can't afford to fight back. (And even when the do win lawsuits like in the Dozinger case, the oil companies just refuse to pay anyways and then throw everyone involved in jail for daring to oppose them.)
