We could truly be the light of the world, lifting people up in the deep and darkest places, regenerating the planet. All the angry people would be getting what they need and there wouldn't be enough crazies to want to turn it all over any more.

Having solved the low hanging fruit, we'd be working on the hard stuff. Worldwide peace, cleaning up oceans. How to replace plastics.

I'm a child of the 60s; I always thought that was they way it would be.
