Much appreciate your thoughts and pragmatic consideration of a serious problem for the future.

Lately I've engaged in facebook debates in heavy Ayn Rand territory where I live. These people want only laissez faire Capitalism. Nothing else will do. They mock all other options - despite the likelihood that there will be no middle class and they're bound to be angry old men. If they aren't already.

I think that's where all extremists are bound - angry, bitter, boozy cynicism.
