The Left confuses PROGRESS with CONSUMPTION. And OPPRESSION with DOMESTICATION. We evolved Property, Law, Markets and resulting Eugenics to limit Hyper-Consumption, and Impose domestication upon semi-human animals by constraining the reproduction of both genders to what they could produce. One can spend increases in production but if one just spends down accumulated genetic capital, one is not engaging in progress, but burning the winter stores for an endless fall feast. Only far east and far west produced majority genetic middle class civilizations. And Redistribution under ‘democracy’ reversed five thousand years of western civilization’s domestication of human polities in just a century.
