The myriad mutual assured destruction (MAD) **ponzi schemes and Pyramid Schemes can be unwound**: cryptocurrencies, debt based currency, growth based finance, growth based economies, mega cities, debt-based government finance, population growth, rich get richer, agribusiness, dependence on oil/gas/coal, free market capitalism, and generally dependence on growth curve (S curve) dynamics. One system dynamics model should make the point!
Wisdom of the **East and West** are better together.
The ability to **stop technofeudalism** and harness digital technology for the good of the whole.
**Defense budgets** can be cut. **Universal basic income** can be afforded. Modern version of swords into plowshares.
Economic wars can be deescalated. Financial system instability (speculation and gaming) can be reduced. Currency trading can be abolished. Transnational loop holes (tax, etc.) can be closed.
Climate goals can be set and reached.
Illusions of democracy (party system delusions) can be dropped. Democratic experiments can be supported and scaled with digital technology.
Polycentric decision making can be fostered. One governing forum (one party of independents) focused on each problem/solution domain/scale.
Category errors matter. Nations are not like people. Trust does not scale well and is not a property of nations. Even contract and treaties are of suspect value. Our choice of metaphors and similes matter--a lot. _By-the-way corporations are not people nor are they like people and they certainly should not have the same rights as people. That is the same type error as confusing nations with people. The supreme court "justices" are not stupid, they are evil and horrifically unjust. They know a category error when they see one. **They just have personal beliefs that are stronger than the belief they were hired to serve: justice.**_
We are looking for "Antifragility," not certainty or even stability.
