Central banking is just an idea. If we keep getting worse the more we come up with bad ideas, we were that bad all along, just without the ideas.

A really terrifying possibility is that we just get worse the more we know. Facts, not ideas. Maybe our morality just depends on being wrong about shit, and when we scientifically understand more of the consequences of our choices, life just gets darker. Escaping this would require unimaginable fundamental change.
