There are these inefficient twentieth century institutions that we built in response to particular circumstances. The electrical grid is one example - a peculiar public-private arrangement that regularly fails yet remains our primary solution. Another is our healthcare system with its convoluted mixture of state and private insurance tied to employment, where no stakeholder has proper incentives for optimal functioning. An abundance of localized energy generation will obviate our dependence the grid, just as an abundance of self-directed care will make our centralized healthcare institutions obsolete. These seemingly separate issues are fundamentally connected. The solution isn't marginally reallocating existing resources, but rather coordinating with new technologies to expand the resources themselves. Believing in a future of abundance.

Indeed sir, for some of these to improve politicians need to move from comfortable positions of power to positions of uncertainty to their careers for the greater good, imagine that? Either that or restrictions on lobbying… That’s why term limits are important. If memory serves me right Deloitte is one of the best examples of corporation imposing term limits on their CEOs, Mark & Spencer used to that 20 years ago but I think they went away from that model.
