Alain Badoux's description of the world

Alain Badoux describes the world as a contradictory and profoundly unequal place where existence is judged solely on financial terms. Critics of the current system justify it by emphasizing that while it is not perfect, it is better than extreme alternatives. This perspective is used to downplay the flaws of capitalism, democracy, and other systems by comparing them to more extreme atrocities and injustices in the world.
