“I think we'll need new governance structures, institutions probably to help with this transition. So I think political philosophy and political science is going to be key to that.

But the fiat system proves that unlimited fiat doesn't solve anything long term.
I think we should learn what really makes us happy.
And mostly material stuff is just a small part of that.
