Excellent Monica! Once again you remind us all of the ancient evolution-blocking tool. What tool? Most know this tool as divide and conquer. (Even two-year-olds know how do use this tool when they pit parent against parent!) LOL.
To gain and maintain exponentially growing chaos fertilizes divisions. Those who seek to gain and maintain power fear most — unity. Just as a dammed stream overflows the dam (unless the dam uses built-in release mechanisms) so to will the tide change as more impoverished decide enough is enough. To keep poverty we need ever-increasingly tall dams. True?
As COVID-19 ripples through all life-aspects I sense combined evo-revolution building. Enough people are tired enough of being tired of working 40 or more hours a week for 40 or years of life in the hopes they’ll earn some well deserved time off.
Guess what! When upper-middle-class retirees become homeless cause the stock-market wiped out their 401(k)’s, KEOG’s (et. al.) watch out!
