It’s hard to predict the future, but politics goes in fashion cycles. We’re currently on the upswing of a leftist government bubble that will pop just like the real estate bubble did. It will be a mess, but new technology always changes the game. Taking a Luddite position is historically a bad bet.
If we’re dreaming, I’m all for space exploration and fleeing. Let them stew in their own stink. The gene pool is beyond cleaning.
Damn! The pessimism is oozing out of me to day. Sorry!
