Look around at the price of things, even if the war ended tomorrow, they most likely will never go back down, this is the new normal because of greed and need for record profits year after year. Also wages aren't going up, in fact the government which should be looking out for the worker is trying to artifically keep wages low.

Go look at Lake Mead, Lake Powell, or the Great Salt Lake. They know all these lakes are collapsing and going empty, and Great Salt Lake will make a disaster zone when it does. Who is stepping in to stop this? The answer is no one, because profits won't allow it.

People will try to make it out that technology will save us, but save who exactly? The rich want to exploit you for every cent they can then throw you away without you even having healthcare, and if they could they would ruin Social Security tomorrow. They know the system is headed for collapse, so they tried to take it over before it offically did. Oops that failed, so they say "sorry" and wait for you to go back to sleep so they can try again. They will try again.
