The structural failures under it all

This is an excellent summary of where we are and the realistic range of actions we can expect. While I’m not optimistic about the survival of the US in anything like its present form, there is a chance that a complete change of Congress and the executive this year…

You are certainly correct that socialism has not failed but some basic assumptions are, I think, no longer relevant. Capitalism is failing. That has been obvious for a long time. The great change that is required of people now depends on handling greater complexity starting with understanding that systems fail, not because they are inherently wrong…

We no longer have the nerve to take things apart to make them better. Now we must wait for them to break so can do a bad job of fixing them because a fix is always rushed. We understand rushed. We don’t understand human design for social components. In fact we’re scared because we’ve been told that is bad. Only social accidents are ok. But they seem to lead to the same people winning. Not us.
