Human societies have always been ruled by military elites, Mythos elites (religious or royal), or rich elites. They have never been ruled by intellectual elites.

Humanity could be saved by knowledge, understanding, reason and logic, but these have always been despised by the average person.

Intellectual attributes have never played a decisive role in human affairs. The intelligentsia have always been advisers, and never those occupying the throne and taking the decisions.

What would happen to the world if Logos people rather than Mythos people were in charge, if smart people rather than military people were in charge, if people of knowledge ruled rather than people of wealth? The world would be transformed. Humanity would undergo a wondrous metamorphosis.

A political system exists that can deliver this New World Order… a world where intelligence becomes the most valued resource. It’s called Meritocracy.

    Money is a “proximity phenomenon” – the closer you are to its source, its flow, the better.

      When in years to come your children and grandchildren ask you what you did when the Revolution happened, will you be able to tell them the truth, or will you have to lie and pretend you did heroic things when in fact you stayed at home gorging on junk food as you watched it all on TV?

        Human history has been subject to three disastrous forces – three Horses of the Apocalypse, we might say. They are: 1) the power of violence (war, military strength... everything that’s sustained by brute force), 2) the power of stories (religion, monarchy... everything sustained by the beliefs people hold, by the Mythos they have chosen to explain their lives to themselves), and 3) the power of money (the universal currency for buying what you want, for getting people to do what you want because they crave the money
