Half-intentionally baited you to weigh in with this framework, and now I will quote it, for emphasis, in the hopes that it encourages anyone unfamiliar with the concept of shareholder capitalism to familiarize themselves. Also debated including this, but I'm also a pretty firm believer in the value of in-person schooling. THE CHILDREN WILL BE SOCIALIZED PROPER-LIKE. Been half-rewatching 30 Rock recently, while falling asleep, with the (new, to me) knowledge that Alec Baldwin plays Jack Welch, who cameos in one episode (I think, too lazy to IMDB lookup). Boy, have I got another wall-o'-text for you elsewhere in this thread. edit: aaaaaaaand you've already found it.Those incentives make sense under shareholder capitalism. They are an obvious maladaptation under stakeholder capitalism. The point of the book, fundamentally, is that stakeholder capitalism was a bad idea and the world is waking up to this fact.

The solution to energy problems is to use less energy.
Cool thing about schools is they have school buses and are situated within school districts. Remember - 90% of the population of the United States lives within the greater metropolitan area of somewhere so education happens where you are, not where your parents' paychecks come from. I will, again, recommend Bill McKibben's "Eaarth" because the first half of the book, quaintly, is "global warming is real" and the second half is "the solution is to live locally." Which, granted, pretty much fucks the South, both east and west. But you know what? I'm fine with that right now.
