It does feel a lot like we are on the highway to nowhere... or to our own demise.
Truth? I'd submit that we seem to have an addiction to "growth" or "more." It's almost like a meta-variant of the psychological disorder of hoarding, much of it perpetuated by the ruling political/financial elite... and until someone is willing to sit down and examine the hard truth that "growth" may NOT be a good idea... that simply having "stability" is enough... we'll continue to have trouble with immigration patterns, corporate corruption, governments and more. But what system is going to honestly examine the possibility that the only reasonable path forward to propose its own demise?
