I liked this story, thanks for posting.

Isn’t the seeming otherwise lack of interest in infinity strange?

And yet, taking an interest in it seems nothing less than key to understanding what we need to do to fix what is now becoming an existential problem faced by our species.

Infinity, to all intents and puposes, is the quantity of wealth in our sun.

Infinity divided by tens, hundreds, or even thousands of billions of people is still infinity.

0.00oooo1 percent of infinity divided by those same thousands of billions of people is still infinity.

And yet we are destroying ourselves and our environment, for the sake of scarcity control for profit

Even equipped with the routine technology to harness the energy of the sun, we continue to ignore it, except for maybe an inconsequential few like us right here.

What gives?!?
