How long can you keep a people energised?
Do you think an athlete with long hair is manly or feminine? Do you think facial piercings are signs of independence that you wear in unison with all the other independent facial jewellery wearers?
In other words, do you spend your earnings or invest them?
How many thousands or millions of your people have you sacrificed to preserve a way of living? How many of your people are buried on foreign soil in defense of their way of living, too?
What is the big picture but a bunch of subcultures working together toward the same or very similar goals?
What about those in opposition? Do you tolerate or eliminate their views?
Stay tuned. The future has the answers whether you're looking for them or not.
To clarify, the local police force is doing its job; it's the TSA's feelgood fondling policies that burn my goat. The Mossad has better and more effective methods for deterrorising buses on the ground and in the air.
Congrats to Boeing and Bigelow.
Enemies are where you want to find them. Vigilance, not vigilantes. Address the threats and don't distress the puppets (unless hopelessness is a major (not side) effect, along with despair).
