School Responsibilities

Haha, that's cool. But I've had a working lifetime of being trained not to rail against the status quo without a realistic alternative, so it's hard for me to NOT react.

In this case, realism requires acknowledging that the general shirtiness of human nature isn't going to change, and that no more efficient macroeconomic system has yet been invented that takes actual human nature into account.
If the general shirtiness of human nature has brought us to where we are then bring it on. Keep it coming. There is NOW so much progress, so much great science humanity is generating, the general state of humanity near so many pinnacles of discovery. It's a great time to be alive.

Humanity seems on the right track, just so far from where it could be. And money, the generation and dispersion of it, is a big part of the chasm between us and our potential. I think it's a problem being solved and much of the solution is beyond our time and place :shrug:
