I probably come across sometimes as someone overly concerned about safety, I write about some things I see around that happening now and then, its because I have a little experience working in safety Engineering, most long practicing Engineers do, and we all of us, I am sure, have noticed that when push comes to shove, profit comes first, always.
At one time I would have agreed with you, the answer should never be to have no regulations.
But the hard truth is, this is where we are headed, because profit insists. As long as we play along with it, we will keep accepting lower and lower safety standards, until there are none.
This is us going backwards as a species, it is profit reversing civilisation, systematically removing us and all of life from the planet.
That might sound like an extreme thing to say, but it gets worse.
Profit is a physical energy con which is now the thing fundamentally, systemically pushing up the planetary temperature.
I am an energy expert saying this, and still nobody listens.
If this doesn't stop us practicing profit, nothing will, and we have actually very little time, nay profit left, to play with.
Even the war unfolding recently in Ukraine and now in Palestine are symptoms of the same thing, our persistent taking of resources from the planet which are becoming ever scarcer.
To me there is an answer, a very obvious answer.
Reverse the mathematical polarity of the energy being used.
With that everything changes from bad to good.
Now I am sounding really insane, I know, but the world is crazier than most mainstream thinkers can imagine.
The only remedy, the only way out, is to begin issuing money on the economic product created and in process of being created from solar energy, which is the only mathematically positive source of energy, the only actual source of energy full stop.
By that we will effectively be "Bribed" to do the "right" thing. Most crime is economic crime, it's just poor people trying to do business.
Pay them enough money, then why would they bother trying to do business.
Law and order itself is just a statutory framework of safety regulations historically needed to keep us safe.
Why would we need police, if no-one was committing any crime?
Why bother being a police officer if we didn't need the money?
I think this is what has to happen, in the switch to mathematically positive energy, this is the only way to stop the real crime, which is the energy crime we all do, by carrying on as usual in the all fir profit system.
We have to remove the need for it.
So I think we will go to zero formal regulations and be much better for it.
Also if we did declare informally that the real crime is and always has been energy crime, which we've all done in ignorance forever, we can pardon pretty much all criminals, at least those guilty of financially motivated crime, and more or less shut prisons.
There would still be a few crazy folk who did bizarre horrible stuff nobody can understand, but they should be dealt with by mental institutions rather than prisons, surely.
Hence why I think we will end up with no regulations.
On who to put in charge of it all, monitoring product creation, issuing money accordingly, there is no better grand system controller than ChatGPT.
That will make us very happy I think.
So I argue it should be put in charge.
I am honestly saying this, no word of a lie.
Sack the Presidents and Prime ministers and all their aides, and put ChatGPT In charge :)
