The economy and civilization

I spent July writing about the economy and civilization, and half of June or more working up to it, and half of August so far trying to disentangle myself from all that. Every morning I try to write, and by the next morning I have to abandon what I wrote and start again. Meanwhile, I can't even bring myself to read the July posts and tie up loose ends.

The other day I googled the economy and civilization but I couldn't read any of that, either.

Eh, I get like this sometimes.

What I do want to say is that if we could fix the economy, we wouldn't have to worry about civilization. And that if we don't fix the economy, worrying about civilization isn't going to help.

 

That's it, I guess. I thought I had more to say.
