You’ve spoken several times now about needing to make a major change before anything can get better. In your opinion, what would those changes look like?
Our priorities as a nation — and eventually as a species have to be upended. Weapons development should be the least of our concern, and education and science should be at the top of the pyramid. If a revolution is to happen it needs to be carefully constructed, leaving out the ego, and learning from the mistakes of all previous sovereignty. Our most common mistake is repeating ourselves and ignoring the damage we’ve done to ourselves.
