Books about living under capitalism? Books about accepting the need to work long, difficult weeks to achieve and preserve a good salary, or conversely, accepting living without great means for the sake of freedom and leisure? Books about deciding what to do with my life; attempt to be a doctor, lawyer, professor, novelist, woodland hermit? Books about finding reason to live at the same time that I net an income livable enough to sustain my raison d'etre'd life? Books about the agony of knowing that I most likely have sixty-odd years of living ahead of me and that it is in my best interest to build a foundation now?

I'll get called a neoliberal shill for this, but there is no better system than a capitalist mixed economy. Peter Singer says it well:
>Capitalism is very far from a perfect system, but so far we have yet to find anything that clearly does a better job of meeting human needs than a regulated capitalist economy coupled with a welfare and health care system that meets the basic needs of those who do not thrive in the capitalist economy. If we ever do find a better system, I'll be happy to call myself an anti-capitalist

Those aren't specifically human needs, those are needs (health, food, shelter, etc) that are common to many species. Capitalism fails to meet specifically human needs like spirituality, communion with the gods, metaphysical knowledge etc. Only a traditionally structured society can do that.

I'm Catholic and I would love a spiritual revival, but it just seems unrealistic and traditionalism is just larping.

Why do you depend on other people or a collective to find 'individual values' such as spiritualism?
