Lol. Yes, even if it wasn’t my intention, but I find that to affect effects, causes have to be addressed and one of the primary causes of human behavior are its belief systems.

Now any one of these beliefs, from treating money as a commodity, when it functions as a contract, to good and bad as the idealized moral standard, is too well imbedded into the cultural psyche to peel away, yet it seems like we have a civilizational crisis approaching, in which people might be willing, especially those of the younger persuasion, to ask whether our cultural propensity for reductionism is leading down some rabbit holes where all context and effective environment is shredded.

Can we legitimately expect to travel outside this solar system, if we are effectively clueless about our place in it, in the first place? Might we have to get our act together, first?

Wealth might equate to energy, but the medium connecting them is debts owed by the many, to the few. Thus control of that energy.

We have to understand that feedback, not goals, drive nature.
