The Unintended Consequences of Elite Actions

Elite individuals often believe their success is solely attributed to their cleverness and intelligence, overlooking the intricate systems created by others that also contributed to their achievements. This narrow perspective leads them to focus on the parts of the puzzle they are familiar with, neglecting the complex interplay of systems that support their power. Their actions may disrupt these systems to the point where even they cannot thrive in the world they create. Concern arises from the possibility that these elites lack an understanding of the delicate balance needed to sustain a functional world, potentially leading to catastrophic consequences and even extinction.
