When I was in college, I took a class called environmental ethics and we read a lot about the implications of capitalism in a world with finite resources.
This one guy argued that capitalism will innovate ways to solve the problems it creates. At the time, I thought it was a decent argument. However, in the years since then I have seen how wrong that dude was and continues to be.
The corporations will lie so much just to keep things as they are. At some point, development of new technology becomes more expensive than lying to the public and we are currently beyond that point.
