Crisis and no quick fix (17/03/19 11:30:28)
It has taken decades to dismantle what was good in the old system. The fixes for what was wrong in the old systems have been half-hearted and have had to struggle against sabotage on the top level (politicians) and the lower levels (lay people who have been losing power, prestige, money - or all - that's where some of the half-heartedness hides methinks).
When the politicians cannot even agree about the situation, and some of them - implicitly - push for the final solution, then there is an urgent need for clean-up in the political classes and castes.
Youngster rebellion against complacency in environmental policies is promising for the future. It is time to reconquer some power bases that are presently inhabited by unyielding reactionaries or their dummies. Let's hope their youthful eagerness can be tempered by some with experience and broad system knowledge.
