The Danger of Complexity

I wish that inequality was where it ended. But the truth is, and i want to refer back to jard diamond's definition of collapse. He talks about population decrease, and he talks about a decrease in complexity. And those two things are really tied together. With our increased level of complexity has also come an incredible boom in population. If we were to go back to even a little bit simpler of a time, our population would go with it. We have grown by ten times in the last 250 years.
