I appreciate this techno-anarchist vision as offering a measure of hope. I can remember Tom Paine's writings about the American Revolution saying 'let the trouble occur in my day so that my children will live in peace' . Today, we place our grandkids in hopeless debt, by contrast. Global economic collapse may be the price we would pay for radical new technology but on the other hand, it may not matter anymore, given the fragility of international markets.
