Why More is Less?

A question which might baffle some of you: why if we have more we have less in the same time? Doesn't it defy the logic of things? And more and less of what exactly?

Above question is a rising issue in the field of social and behavioural studies, looking at the psychology of a current society and how does it respond to the changes and opportunities it is given. I believe that it is especially interesting to observe such a phenomenon in the countries which experienced a drastic socio-political change, where the dawn of capitalism has been observed and celebrated not so far ago.

Below animation gives an interesting insight into the mechanics of changes that capitalism brought to these societies and what its driving force is. The latter being applicable to most if not all of the. so called, "modern" countries.

I hope you'll enjoy it.

PS. Thank you Sole :)
