💣 I. Debt Trap
🐌 Old vs. New Economy
The past demands tribute from the future.
Legacy economies move slowly, convinced that weight equals value. They treat their own inertia as a noble burden and expect society to praise the effort of dragging outdated systems forward. This belief hides an inconvenient truth: they consume more energy than they produce.
Modern value creation is agile, light, and scalable. It accelerates precisely where the old system strains. Yet the past still positions itself as the “real economy” and insists that innovation must pay for its inefficiency.
The grotesque imbalance appears clearly: the one creating the delay demands payment from the one creating the acceleration.
Formula:
Progress = Innovation ÷ Historical Weight
Symbols:
– 🐌 snail — slow legacy economy
– heavy wooden cart — industrial-era burden
– e-scooter — new value creation
Alt-text:
A father-like State figure drags an old wooden industrial cart labeled “Coal” and “Heavy Industry.” Next to him, Business-Children speed ahead on an e-scooter marked “IT” and “Innovation.” Their movements are fluid; his is strained and heavy.
