    Education. But you can clearly see the defects of the last 40 years of defunding and deriding education.

    More power, more reputation. People automatically flock to trillion dollar companies.

    If you want to stop people you have to stop it for all companies. You have to make brands less important.

    Explain to them that you can still be a billionaire if you are dead. You can still be a senator if you are dead. Next question.

    1. Stop allowing cuts to education and stop advancing kids who can’t comprehend the material for that grade. The world will always need ditch diggers. Telling a future ditch digger that they’re smart enough to graduate when they can’t read and/or comprehend at their grade level, if at all, is doing that child and society as a whole a disservice. Not only does it set up that child to then become an arrogant adult, but it deprives society of the documentation, or lack thereof, that this person is not, and should not be, considered any sort of authority on anything other than ditch digging.

    2. Understand that some people are actually evil and don’t deserve to live.
