I guess I hadn’t stopped to think that one reason why government seems so
insane right now is that the “governing” they’re trying to manage across
wealthy, huge institutionalized structures like music, media, money,
pharma, education, transportation— are fast becoming super-decentralized.
All of them are fast evolving due to a tectonic shift in control. In this
way, Governments themselves are just another “Woolley Mammoth System” like
them. Like it or not, their Ice Age is ending. We’ve all watched various
forms of power-decay impact these systems. Have you stepped back and
wondered where all this is headed? That’s not what I anticipated talking
about with this week’s guest, Jordan Greenhall. I thought we were going to
talk about Nootropics. That’s where we started but Jordan quickly aimed the
conversation at the dead center of these trends.
