it's amazing that in capitalism a company has to always show numbers rising like there is no physical upper boundary. The most logical and efficient economic model

It drives me insane how many people turn a blind eye to the funny numbers needing to always go up. Every "investor" will tell me how the market has never not recovered; how I'm the fool and surely not them for trusting in the system.

I hate that my retirement depends on a 401k, or money that constantly depreciates.

Constant growth at all costs. In the short term at least. Whether that works out in the long run or not...
