<<new code word.. liberals are the 'zero summers'.

You and Bob are not seeing the big picture.

Here is the big picture:

We 7 billion people live on spaceship earth. We are polluting that spaceship very quickly and we have no where to go. We have finite resources and in 35 years our cultures will be so complex, robots will challenge us and change us. Human singularity.

We have a lot of change that is needed to meet the challenges and lots of people to care for.

E.g. right now we have spread so much mercury around the earth eating any fish has its dangers. That was not true 100 years ago. Coal fired power plants.

That problem has to be solved, not brushed under the rug. Bob wants to ignore it. Do you think the kids want us to ignore it?
