A New Normal

Since the 1930s when technology and the population exploded here on earth because it could we were all sort of moving down the same paradigm of "infinite Natural Resources" and opportunism and technical achievement.

Now, Globalization has changed this basic premise in multiple ways and will likely bring us to a new normal and away from the incorrect position of "Infinite Natural Resources" towards "Whatever any of us do affects everyone here on Earth both now and into the future". We aren't there in group consciousness yet, but if humans want to survive here on earth we will have to get there one way or another. What Globalization has done more than any other thing is to make everyone on Earth equal in economic potential. However, this equality has been seriously harmed by "State Sponsored Capitalism" which basically makes all resources capable of being manipulated by any state (Country) in the world. So, even though financial equality could have been possible for everyone worldwide through globalization it has been bastardised through the advent of State sponsored Capitalism. So the new enemy of the financial equality of all humans on earth now has a name "State Sponsored Capitalism".

The sooner it is recognized as the enemy of the common man here on earth the more humans will survive this "New Normal". By the way until people recognize this as their enemy it is possible that the human race will diminish by up to half here on earth by 2100. And some of the things that could or likely will  create this are Global Climate Change, depletion of our magnetosphere, and State sponsored Capitalism.

Note: Capitalism in itself isn't necessarily a bad thing. It only becomes a bad thing when Governments manipulate capitalism for their own personal interests which usually is not based upon the needs or interests of their common people or the needs of the whole world. So in this way anything good about Capitalism becomes perverted and not helpful to the whole world.

Remember, Socialism is based upon the premise of "From each according to their ability and to each according to their needs" In theory this sounds good but in practice it was found not to work for various reasons. Capitalism is based primarily upon greed. However, if this greed allows those capable to prosper and lift worldwide economies and to hire all those capable of working then it puts food into almost every one's mouths. Then Social Democracies of the world added disbursements of money to those incapable of ever working at a normal job for any reason. In this way those who couldn't work or who could no longer work didn't have to just starve to death and die on the streets anymore as they have down through history. As the world tries to create a "New Normal" where most people can survive and have food to eat, clothes on their backs and some kind of shelter you will see many different kinds of experiments tried around the world to reduce violence and tension during these turbulent times.
