>>>Those that are not really willing to actually do anything are quite quick to criticise.

>>You make a very good point. I don't have the stomach to get involved. Even if I wanted to I have too many skeletons in my closet to succeed in an era of one minute sound bites. I am sure that does make it easier for me to rail against the system from my computer. However, it doesn't change the fact that the system is completely broken and future generations are going to have to live a lower standard of living until it is fixed.

I agree, but assume you mean here in US. In some other places std of living may actually improve... unless we have the complete breakdown that TJ occasionally mentions by abbreviation.

I think the foremost issue impacting standard of living is overpopulation. It is not being addressed because of biology and religion.

If we could cut world population by 90%, keep it there, and continue developing technology, resource wars might be a thing of the past... and perhaps everyone could have a decent living standard... and enough space to live in.

Of course, that will not happen unless nature unleashes her own reduction mechanism.

I doubt we will even stabilize world population.

If that doesn't happen, the likelihood of nature getting involved increases.
