Interesting thoughts Jack, thanks for posting.
Being in search of truth is a good thing, but a lot of things seem invisible without enough education to be able to see them, I would say.
So the education is the thing needed, more than any money, to enable all people to see all things revealed.
Then there would be less need for people to go so much on theory or beliefs.
And less need to have leaders, who often can’t see the truth revealed either, although they claim otherwise, if they seem confident, then they might seem believable.
So there are more actors now than educated people in politics, which gives us a real headache as a species, because now we are being led by leaders who are blinded from reality.
Now acting itself might be something taught in schools, rather than how the world works, as might be taught in physics, and to be honest, I don’t believe anyone should begin to try understand economics, without first learning how the physical world works.
So the challenge we have, after we’ve learned how the world works, and then how economics work, and we see that economics has a built-in problem that doesn’t fit with how the world works, we have to make it visible to all people in a way that all see instantly is the truth, therefore need no leader to convince them of it, and no leader can deny it.
