Still, don't forget, on balance the world is a better place that it has been in the past.
That depends on what side of the scales you are on....They've tipped heavily and consequences are surfacing, starting to bubble over even.....
We may well let the advances we have made and those we could make end up a paradise lost situation.....
Unfortunately many protect what tipped the scale and others, well, they are well insulated, blinded by the city lights lets say and can't the stars anymore....
As Carville put it,,,Great in the Faculty Lounge, lacking in the overall perspective...
