Dakota and other doomsayers are actually pretty content with the current system.
Gives them something to bitch and campaign about. Thing is that's all BS since the world economy depends on agreements between economic powers. Problem for him is he's stuck in micro-economics while the folks he admires are not.
Our worldwide economic system -- the same system the godless Chinese and other erstwhile Communist systems have bought into -- is a lot like our recent near economic meltdown, it's to big to fail since we are all tied together and if the largest among us is allowed to fail; all will fail.
The economic macro-genius of this is that we, as a planet (at least the leaders), have a common goal.
The real problem is that the system we built that concept upon depends on having a continuing underclass and have no idea whatsoever what will happen when the population boom goes from wholly unmanageable (as it is today) to completely unsustainable.
