The bigger big con

Personal lives can always be seen as complicated, or not, depending on our moods if nothing else, so perception isn't necessarily a good gage.   Most of us, though, notice the continual change in what we deal with in our work, personal & public lives.   Decade after decade, life keeps getting much more complicated.   

 

It's the tell-tale sign of a truly stupendous oversight.    Continual economic growth is achieved by creating exponentially more complicated tasks, forever.    It's the kind of thing that could lead to either real disappointment in what we're building, or real tragedy when it fails.   The hope of limitlessly growing wealth, like the promise of a free cure for every ill, is a remarkably easy sell.    What was it Barnum said...?     Maybe we should put our hopes for mankind in something else.
