Reading this reminds of just how spoiled we modern humans that live in capitalist economies have become. The fact that we have such abundance of choice and that the vast majority of people have access to tools and goods that didn't even exist is just proof we are spoiled brats. We have one end of the scale where the entitled human complains about the most unimportant things, not appreciating how awesome things are for us. If their food takes 5 minutes to long, or something breaks they lose their minds.

Then you have people like this author. To much stuff. It reminds me of the mindset of the socialists like Bernie Sanders that complain about there being to many choices. Then you go to a socialist country and they lack so many things we take for granted. Honestly, capitalism isn't perfect. But, I have come to believe the issue isn't capitalism but rather human desires and morals. There are many things I wish didn't exist or were less desired but that's just my opinion. The reality is that if people value something, if it is possible to provide it will be done without central planning. Central planning (socialism) leads to want and starvation. It feels like those that take this for granted are gonna kill the golden goose.

The bottom line for most critiques of capitalism is that it boils down to the person not liking something about the world they live in. The reality is that they are in the minority. Its really elitism at the core.
