It seems reasonable to say that the parts and connectedness of our
system are experiencing increasing change.
This doesn't mean something generally frightening will happen, just
something we can't predict.   It is hard to say, especially in this
world of technology and concentrated wealth what compensatory
adaptations might occur, how and by whom their are perceived, and
whether they will also tend toward infinity.  Necessity is the mother of
invention.
