2558. what culture are we working toward?
We have a culture of private concerns, not of concern for all others. This is the real frontier.
Are we managing the earth for the benefit of all humans? All. What would it take.? Musk asks what would it take to get to Mars? He is very straight forward and analytical about it. What would it take, in that same spirit , to get humanity to earth?
I think the answer lies in looking at how our present culture towards private concerns recreates itself with each passing generation. The ideas behind it: — earth-as-a-consumable-resource, private property, agriculture, etc — continue to propagate from human to human and generation to generation, and for most people these ideas are tacit and unquestioned.
