Everyone needs to become autodidactic renaissance men, capable of having every skill imaginable ready to bear expertly at the drop of a hat. No specialization, because that's a dead end. Any specialty can and will be outsourced to someone more cheaply once that specialty knowledge is imitated. (specialties like managment, financial advisors, tort lawyers, military special ops)
Of course, in a bell curve world, not everyone is capable of being a renaissance man, so some of you are going to have to die, for the good of the economy. You die so that I may retire at 35 a very rich man. Think of the better world that your sacrifice represents. A middle class in class concious India and for the U.S. a small, elite band of UberMannen, furiously running from new "next thing" to "newer" like a pack of dogs (though very high acheiving and pedegreed canines) around the latest fifi on the block for a quick clusterf**k and then move on.
We'll have to take away your franchise before we can implement our brave new world, of course, but by then, you'll be greatful for the security and leadership we provide.
And then Ve shall rule ze Verld! (or what little part of it India and China allow us.)
People cannot live in chaos for long. Cultures, states, communites, families and children cannot prosper in chaos. Even slaves will not tolerate chaos for long. And your money and cherished "property" would be devoured by chaos.
But before your chaos takes over, the order will be restored in other way.
Rome established a republic in 509 B.C. The Senators who ruled the city were elected by popular vote, but Roman law restricted what they could do. As a result, the people were free, and most of them prospered. With the passage of time, however, a ruling class evolved and began using the Senate to pursue their expansionist agenda. A series of foreign wars ensued which enriched the oligarchy and impoverished the people. Those who acquired wealth purchased vast tracts of land and farmed them with slaves captured in battle. Small farmers couldn't compete with them, and they were forced to sell their land. Class warfare broke out, and the power of the State was expanded to control the populace. The right to vote was extended to promote democracy and quiet dissent. The oligarchy began fighting among themselves for positions of power, which led to ever increasing chaos. Eventually Augustus Caesar intervened and replaced the Roman Republic with the Roman Empire.
