Sank uu. Before I watch that video I want to say that people, even smart and educated ones, don't understand the exponential function. It applies to everything, including evolution, including the poor, the working class and the ways humans merge with tech and nature. Some people just consciously decide to opt out ... and many of those opt in again, once the solution are convenient enough.

Too much progress has been lost because the top kept the lower 50% below their potential.

And even though the bottom 50 % know very well who is responsible for the state of the planet, the supply chains of the top 13 %, there is no anger and no hate. Most of them will go nuts in terms of productivity, if you give them UBI. If I think of the German-[insert any eastern country], there is not a single person who will sit on their ass and do nothing. And they won't go all self-sufficient and all that jazz, absolutely not. They will join the markets and increase the margins of all the investors. It took me a long time to understand why so many people misinterpreted the potential of the working class. They are proud about what they do, they gladly help and grow anyone's wealth, as long as you give them what they need to thrive. The ROI would be super freaking hot. Don't take my word for it. Try it.

I'd thought you might be linking Albert Bartlett's exponential growth 'splainer video. Turns out not, though the video you've linked is interesting.

Bartlett is a classic however: <https://yewtu.be/watch?v=kZA9Hnp3aV4>
