Very good article.
I fear for the future, but timing is everything.
I’ve already been way off on my expectations of doom.
As of late, I have been getting the feeling that “those that be” are attempting to make the concept of money meaningless. Won’t bode well for the masses if they succeed.
LATER
Could it be that the world economy is now driven by the biggest spender of all: governments?
What’s keeping us from societal destruction is not hope but technology. Technology is creating real wealth — in terms of the ability to create goods and services that people need and want — at approximately the same rate that government policies are destroying it.
Technology is improving on an exponential curve. Governments have to work night and day to keep up with it — and hence keep the rest of us down.
