Interesting analog observation Jones,
I had never connected this thought when observing the laws of human nature,
( alive and well in the Dime Box saloon). Public education provides and
equally valid example of the law governing cultures which allow that when
mixing cultures, the most base culture will drag every other culture down to
it's base as demonstrated by USA public education experiments.
It is often proposed that ancient Greece culture was destroyed from within.
The city of Ephesus offers a clue to what really happens when a culture like
the Greek is "invaded" by a most evil and debased culture that totally
corrupted the higher ideals taught in Greece.
We can anticipate the next generation of computer technology to validate the
result of a combination of shifts in society.
Everything predicted by Alvin Toffler has already come and gone when he
predicted that a culture will rise that produces a "religion" of demanding
constant change vs the time held desire of past generations to cling to
traditions.
When the concept of money has been reconceptualized as revealed by Don
Rumsfeld remark that "deficits no longer matter", we may begin to better
understand a new economic model is being tested on the world. These "future
shock" events now taking place are only preludes.
