Such is capitalism, or rather oligopolistic imperialism (a minimum of competition in every complex sector) today - at first there is a crisis of overproduction due to greed at soaring prices on growing demand and a gradual increase in production in excess of demand (which depends on loans and life on credit in Western countries), and then a sharp decline in production and a gradually increasing deficit with a sharp rise in prices, and so on in a circle. Creative people have no time to calmly create and go about their business, receiving goods and services at the best reasonable prices, because. they are forced to guess all the time such idiotic trends and adapt to them, wasting energy on trying to predict it all.
Apologists for capitalism (and now imperialism) believe that this is a normal phenomenon in the development of civilization - such hellish cycles. But is this really so from the point of view of an effective progressive scientific and technical progress of civilization?
In fact, there is no overproduction, there is not enough memory in the market, like everything else, taking into account the growing demand from supposedly (real estimates of the Chinese economy, for example, show that there are no more than 600-700 million people, like in India) 8 billion people on the planet. The only question is why the beneficiaries of these companies want so much margin per unit of goods, to the detriment of mass deliveries for the progressive positive development of civilization? As well as the presence of billionaires, today it looks like a completely abnormal phenomenon in the modern world - they simply should not exist, which clearly speaks of the appalling level of corruption and inconsistency of states with their declared public goals of existence.
Capitalism, the more complex the world, is becoming more and more inefficient model of human development. Moreover, only the name has long remained from capitalism, and in general, all Western countries have long been socialist. Then why is there so little long-term planning?
