According to a report, by mathematician Safa Motesharrei (above) and others, industrial civilization 'may be heading toward collapse' within decades.
The causes:
1. the wide gap between the rich and the poor and
2. the strain on the planet's resources.
According to the report, rich 'elites' may be responsible for both problems.
According to the report: 'The mass of the population, while producing the wealth, is only allocated a small portion of it by elites, usually at or just above subsistence levels.'
The report refers to the downfall of various civilizations, including the Roman, Han, Gupta and various Mesopotamian empires

Industrial society is in decline. This is largely due to 'Peak Oil' removing cheap energy. See the Archdruid Report for weekly essays on associated topics.

The economic position of the West within this context is in rapid decline relative to the rising East. See Continued Economic Decline of West
Reality trumps Greed.
Human effort is a rapidly diminishing factor in production, in spite even of the perverse Fabian Socialist policy of 'full employment' (I.e., keeping everyone in a position such that Planners can decide the content of their lives). We need a system of income distribution adapted to a robotic economic environment--in other words, to the 21sr Century.
Hullo Aang,
Did you see that BBC series Utopia ? Interesting stuff - a death cult cull of the world population by way of an unnecessary vaccine and heavily featuring mkultra assassins. They even gave the ideal population of 500 million. It seems the writer of it, Dennis Kelly, is aware of the CFR papers that name precisely that figure. Interesting.
Worth watching if you didn't see it. Gorgeously shot, nice grade, fine soundtrack and an appealing lead. Some Irishwoman with spooky eyes.
Hmm... seems the yanks are remaking it with David Fincher helming. Hmm... can anyone think of a Fincher film that wasn't death cult?
Yeah, me neither.
best etc. etc.
Correction the series is Channel 4 not BBC
