Where is the part that we all hold hands and dance in the sunset before eating vanilla ice cream sprinkled with cherry crusts? Anyone who isn't dwelling in overly-optimistic Pollyanna world will know how this technological cusp bridled by multionational conglomerates and governments will go about.

I guess I feel we get a choice. History has shown even all encompassing human institutions don’t last when they fail to deliver to the masses. Seems like we live in an age where multinational conglomerate’s and governments are widely viewed to be viewed as institutions that are failing the expectation that they’ll just continue forever, and ever seems to me more fantastical than the idea that people will develop new institutions that would replace the ones that are failing now.
