Completely in agreement, it's just a general disappointment I have given that we are leaps and bounds more knowledgeable than at any point previously in history, even with all that knowledge about our past, about how systems work, incentives, etc. we haven't been able to tame the beast of greed and let it roam free to destroy as it pleases. It's just my wishful thinking that we should be better by this point but we aren't, that's not reality.
