Can someone explain the "be happy" part of the "you'll own nothing and be happy" quote? I fail to see what is there to be happy about.
It came from a speaker a few years ago at the Davos World Economic Forum. Davos is where the ultra rich gather each year to plot out how to be even more evil.
I feel like someone needs to point out that this saying is often conflated with the idea of 15 minute cities.
The idea of 15 minute cities is that people want their amenities within 15 minutes so they don’t have to drive.
It is not an idea to keep you confined and take away your ownership of things.
I'm not OP but I think it means "Providers are saying consumers should accept subscription-based models without complaint"
