Yes, the antediluvian story imprints are echoing in the ether, no doubt contributing to the panic. I know it's difficult to perceive egoless economic conscious standing a chance with the entrenched interests still pushing their weight around. Their "weight," however, does not have much force left anymore, in my estimation. Circumstances to come will reveal this, I predict. Meanwhile, the egoless ideas will begin to truly succeed while egoic ideas will increasingly fail. Helping others for the purpose of helping others will win. Pretending to help others while lying to take their money will fail. It's really that simple. The days of blind self interest have ended. The shift will happen in many small and big decisions. The only real variable is how long this will take. That I don't know. Thank you, gar, for your eloquent comment!

i think i’ve made about four deep dive reviews of your material on money, politics, and social entanglement. i thank you for the substantial thought and learned firepower you have directed at these issues.

i do not see a lot of commentary about it – i suspect a relatively small fraction of the folks who get exposed to it are willing to jump in and scan the bottom for gems and nuggets in a pool this big. perhaps readers are still staring slackjawed at the train coming down the tracks – it looks small right now, but soon enough will assume a looming enormity. most americans, at least, have never seen or experienced anything quite like this…

i agree with your view that our economic consciousness is in a state of flux, and i certainly hope your expectation of an egoless transform is spot on. still, i do have certain antedeluvian imprints that give cause for pause.

the transition to obama has been gratifyingly unturbulent. but i vividly recall the euphoria surrounding john kennedy’s ascent to the presidency. i saw the same outpouring of enthusiasm from the young and intellectually gifted, i recall the palpable relief in turning away from the frustrating economic dormancy of the eisenhower years, and the optimistic aspirations of an expanding egalitarian economic consciousness. sadly, however, those expectations were brutally dispatched – and, it didn’t take long for the hard fall thereafter.

serious bad coding in the human genome is exposed where large amounts of money start to slosh about. just look at the reduced enthusiasm many lawmakers are showing for recovery measures now that obama occupies the oval office. the loftiest layers of the american economic system are embarrassingly corrupt. there seems scant excitement for throwing the thieving throng of me first executive talent out on its collective butt, let alone tossing the jackals in jail where they belong. how is nascent egoless economic consciousness going to stand a chance with the same bloated vulture culture still running the show?

persevere. best wishes to you and your work.
