I really want to thank you for your articulations! Very referencing to read! I would like to invite you to take a peek into a DAO community I am apart of that has adopted much of the view your articulate. We’ve innovated on top of the design principles of Bucky Fuller, yet applied to global consensus building as well as piloting his “abundant economic” measurements.
You also asked in your article if you were missing any “big picture” visions of the future where we are headed, and I do believe you left out what were once called H.O.M.Es, or high orbital mini earths. These “floating habitats” are in low orbit, and each can provide a home to a million people in a perfectly balanced ecosystem.
The economics driving such a venture will provide more jobs worldwide than we could ever imagine, and with the inclusion of a global energy grid, we see permanent solutions to what ever we see today. Hate libs or conservatives? Want the world to be all vegan? In the near future, all can cluster in their own “HOME” in zero g orbit.
That’s more realistic to any scenario where the United States would split apart, there is no condition which delivers an upside to anyone in that assumption, however getting everyone on board to collaborate to build HOMES, have ultimate freedom and riches for all humanity is an entrepreneurial mission that has a pathway 😀
