No , actually economies based on making crap that is immediately obsolete as soon as you buy it and not made to last (but to lowest possible cost) and consumerism (USA and also Australian style) is the problem .... and idiot economists , bankers and politicians who can't see past the ends of their noses and are hung up on a foolish belief that the free market will solve all the world's woes ....
Greed is also not helping.
