in the time remaining, to help us understand how the man-made system of capitalism will lead to the extinction of our human species, and so many others.
We’ve lived so long under the spell of hierarchy—from god-kings to feudal lords to party bosses—that only recently have we awakened to see not only that “regular” citizens have the capacity for self-governance, but that without their engagement our huge global crises cannot be addressed. The changes needed for human society simply to survive, let alone thrive, are so profound that the only way we will move toward them is if we ourselves, regular citizens, feel meaningful ownership of solutions through direct engagement. Our problems are too big, interrelated, and pervasive to yield to directives from on high.

Incidentally, the quote from The Atlantic contains one error when it stated, “It seems to have marked the first time the U.S. government outsourced a covert assassination service to private enterprise.” I would argue that it is only the first time that a government official admitted to outsourcing an assassination. There is substantial to abundant evidence that the assassinations of John, and his brother Robert, Kennedy, Malcom X, Martin Luther King, and the attempts to assassinate Fidel Castro were all contracted out.
