It seems like the market compensates for individual action in a way that diminishes its effect.

The market compensates the future for real consumption?

Or are you thinking in purely abstract models?

I’m more of a physical sciences type. I feel no obligation to coddle completely made up, self re-enforcing garbage.

How is the market compensating for the real impact facing the future of the species?

Hint: it’s not. Everyone in power will simply be dead by the time the bill comes due.

“Trickle down economics” is a meme intended to mock the rubes. “Fuck them kids” is similarly something we uncomfortably laugh at as a joke while behaving with real indifference.

I don't see you proposing a solution.

Individual action isn't it. It is a red herring.

Government policy is the only way forward.

I did not see you propose a solution so much as regurgitate one.
