But I am seriously asking. Why does it have to be like this?

Because the richest people on earth want it to be like this. It makes them richer, and gives them better control of the media.

Yes, I hope that part was rhetorical. Guess my question is, why would we let them get away with it and keep destroying our lives and planet?

I don't mean this to be a "let's bring out the guillotines" comment. I don't crave revenge or violence. I just hope that we can all collectively have a breakthrough and realize we don't have to put up with this; that we, as sentient blobs of meat zipping through the universe, could just have a pretty good time, or at least try to :)
