Great article. Regarding the wealth accumulation, there is an interesting parallel with black holes: a single blob of wealth absorbs other wealth at the exponential rate: dw/dt=k*w, where k is the population growth dp/dt. The same blob of wealth has a Hawking radiation that evaporates this wealth, but at a constant rate: dw/dt=-e, where e is expenses to support ones lifestyle. Big blobs of wealth have about the same rate of evaporation, but absorb surrounding wealth much faster. Add to that the constraint: the total wealth is fixed and generally grows with the population size. In practice, all the small wealth bubbles (workers) evaporate quickly and the radiation gets absorbed by the big black holes. Eventually they become too big for this planet and collide: US vs China. This boom cycle of the wealth bubbles universe is always followed by the bust cycle: a war. The big bubbles explode and firm many small bubbles, that evaporate and so on. Nothing new here. In the black holes world, the force distributing the matter is gravity. In our world of wealth bubbles, this force is called greed. It is the driving force of the boom and bust cycle. Greed is one the few fundamental imperfections of the human mind and it takes eons fir the human mind to change. The previous driving force was cruelty, and it still is in some places. The next driving force will be
