They Really Are Frighteningly Deluded

There's nothing to be hoped for from the capitalist politicians, some of whom will descend upon the G-20 conference.

They all genuinely believe that making the bulk of the population work for the lowest wages is the key to national prosperity. They believe that allowing the financial sector to grow like a parasite on the real economy is the key to economic nirvana. They all believe that the earth's resources are infinite, able to sustain all the mass consumerism that the people of the world can be forced to drown in debt for.

They believe this is all "sustainable" and wise.

It's all a pile of crap.

I think there's a fine line between believing and not acknowledging contrary information.
