I think that manufactured material wealth and totalized social competition brings a lethe effect rather than a mnemosyne to the social zeitgeist in environmental vulnerability-yet that's also an emergent consequence of a social rather than an individual economic environment.
To make governance more rational and fairness in competition better corporations need to be limited in size to 5000 employees and no individual should be able to invest in more than three. Too much networking and concentrated political power outside of government otherwise.
I was reading about Constantinople circa 1200 recently and of the east and west Roman empires in the 4th century. The Emperors divided up East and West between two Emperors with a vice-Caesar apiece before Constantine. The division of political power and rule today with a global evil empire transcending the U.S. Government and economy locally has created and ungovernable monster from the point of view of national self-determinism that existed say, between 1920-39 and less so as recently as 1989.
Political conventions and treaties are as useful as they are in real effect, and certainly their is much unintentional disingenuity in international relations today with the broadcast media abetting an inertial, unfocused drift toward some millennial goal that G knows where it would 'evolve'.
I think that value-added products such as Thomas Edison made are great, and I like science yet the existential application of such technologies without general social competence on the vulnerability of the ecosphere to depletion if not eradication is extremely dangerous. A what me worry mentality pervades both major national parties these days.
