I think we're in a period of big changes. Seems obvious to me. We can't sustain the world we've tried to create since WWII.

We are 35 trillion in debt, have over 400 military bases worldwide and our governing elites are idiots, in case you haven't noticed.

Well I’m not an idiot but actually well read and hold a positive view. The government of we the people, by the people and for the people will hold but evolve. The billionaire or hateful world view is not as strong as this ideal. As we both know, time moves slow but also fast, it may take time but it will remain.
