My Consciousness is Gravity to Your House of Cards

What the guardians of a $70 trillion pool of money don't want you to know: if you built change and adaptation into everything, that money would be yours.
Here's how: that money is a hedge fund that gets dumped into by all the people who protect your assets and own your bosses - insurance companies and investors. The entire purpose of the pool is to exist, grow, and be owned by brutally competitive elites who have no interest in the rest of their generation, much less a future's.
If infrastructure where "human scale" in much the way Bruce Mau envisions a world designed around itself, as opposed to unconscious whims, the $70 trillion pool would grow stagnant and the gradually shifting identities responsible for it would begin to invest it once noting the drastic reduction in market risk due to long-term sustainability and middle-class solubility.
The investments would only have one place to go - the "human scale" market which by this time is beginning to swallow up the classes into a single, surging, and remarkably simple economy with an interest in only the present so as to last forever.
The potential for ideologues to eliminate the glimmer in their eyes will allow us all to know a greater glimmer which awaits in sublime silence.
