It's not enough to make money, they have to make all the money. They have a requirement for perpetual growth.

Yes, which is impossible in a world with finite resources. Utter madness.

Attempting to squeeze more money out of everything is only making the world worse. Everything is disposable, service-bound and overmonetized, and they keep pushing more and more ads and psychological trickery at us to try to sell it.
