Capitalism/robbing
Hi
You turn on the telly or you just look around and you see big, fat Capitalism at the top of its mountain, just about to topple. And here in the nightclub we are drinking, drugging, eating, polluting and robbing ourselves to death.
1. Does it mean that Capitalism is about to fall?
2. What can it mean to "rob oneself to death"?

Regarding the second question, it might just mean "wasting their money and energy, or doing things harmful to their health".
