Thanks for your excellent comments in this thread, you're insights are very valuable. You're more articulate than I could ever hope to be but what I appreciate most is that you understand the co-opted political system, the dog and pony show that rarely, if ever, produces policy or changes in policy that affect the lives of the average citizens, special interest dominates. Until, we take back our democracy we should expect more of the same. We're on a merry-go-round that's spinning out of control feeling sick to our stomachs but don't know how to stop or get off this dangerous carnival ride.
I have come to a powerful whitepill: centralization is the enemy of freedom, and decentralization is freedom. Across every field technological advance is presently increasing decentralization, from agriculture, manufacturing, and communications, to medicine, transport, and policy itself.
Natural processes, embodied in physics, and thus the technology that is possible, are creating conditions that not only enable us to be free individuals, but force us to be. If we can just avoid catastrophic failure - most likely being sucked into war by psychogical manipulations - our posterity will inherit a far better world than we live in today.
Regardless of what I personally can achieve at this late stage in my life, I am comforted that future felicity is on tap for my descendants, and the stars are at their feet.
Thanks!
