Capital in the Twenty-First Century (2019)

Not Bad, Bur Not Good

[6/10 · 21 December 2020]

It's not that the documentary doesn't make some good points, but it makes it seem as though exploitation only began in the 17th - 18th centuries, when it is more like the unfortunate default of humankind.

A lot of information is given, but few solutions are actually presented which causes the documentary to end on a bleaker outlook. Perhaps that is the intention of the filmmakers, but a problem without a potential solution almost comes across as a complaint.
