One thing seems sure is that the world's obsession with multiplying
wealth, power and the complexity of our lives will stop being fun and
loose credibility, the same way any 'unstoppable' force built on
contradictions does.   There's nothing more perfectly certain to be
embarrassed than a plan to achieve infinity after all.   The question is
only how and when.   The physics is interesting, and some of the choices
are better than others.
 
I am not sure that we would enjoy today the classical democracy without
much of the modern social flavor. --Mikhail

>> One more aspect of democracy: it was Western Elites' response to
USSR's
>> Social Project. --Mikhail
