RE: The worst of it

people working together can do amazing things and that is both of the most wonderful and the most terrible in nature.

And that is a very scary thing. When people work together, they attain huge amounts of power. Often good things start our being done, but over time they can start heading in the wrong direction because we can't settle on just doing one thing. We then need to search out the next thing to be improved, then the next. Then, do we start to create things to improve and inadvertently become destroyers?

Nearly always I think. There is a perversion that takes place which means we try to make what we know increasingly efficient to the point it is a negative constraint that weakens the organic nature of growth. I am hoping that decentralized process will mitigate some of this.
