Quite enjoyed hearing Jordan Peterson on Joe Rogan's podcast (Jan 25, 2020), suggesting that the solution to poverty and climate change is to distribute gas to the world's poor.
I posted something like that back in 2013.
Just distribute for free.
Environment and climate change and poverty would be nixed in a pinch.
No brainer, really.
won't happen, of course, because of the threat that simplicity presents to those of us who control our privileged position of power, dependent on keeping the poor exactly that....
a kind of species suicide, because our middle class behaviors won't change...
we fear the potlatch....
which is how i and rachel ran our wedding....
then selfish, short sightedness set back in...
or why my identity focussed lovers and friends and the democrats and liberals are set at each others throats the moment one gains more than the other...
hmmm....
seems i've lost a lot of love over a few tanks of propane in a poor family's hands...
