We have women and minorities consuming genetic capital, and the use of fiat money and financialization to consume physical capital, and democracy consuming normative capital.

Of course we feel good. We feel good on morphine, heroine, and many other drugs too. But we burn cellular capital using them also.

We feel good when we plunder anything – natural, man made, intellectual, or cellular. Because we’re wired to acquire and consume. Because we evolved under scarcity.

But we evolved out of scarcity by the simple act of accumulating capital. And we accumulated capital by producing more than we consumed.

The music played by the hamster wheel always slows and stops eventually, and there are not enough chairs to sit on.
