Cypherpunk Harry Halpin thoughts on Davos

[krach]

"I do think there are lots of well-meaning people here that want to save the world with charity or deal with unemployment, but the fact of the matter is the people here aren't actually in charge in any meaningful sense," he said. "It's just kind of a social club. The larger economic trends – negative inflation, a general sort of collapse of the American Empire global, climate change – these things are very nightmarish and have been started, you know, centuries ago and are out of the hands, I think, of the Davos elite."

I think, in general, these are correct and understandable thoughts. Man, in my opinion, is the most harmful creature on earth and all that he does is only for his own benefit. It seems that everyone understands the most important global problems, but no one does anything to prevent this. Our world has long turned the wrong way and, most likely, irrevocably. Mankind has absorbed the thirst for profit, and in all aspects, economic benefits are in the first place. Perhaps technologies such as blockchain will partly be able to positively influence the situation.
