Most importantly you are you you are here that makes this the stuff they don't want

but they will not solve any existential problems in fact it is more likely

to create further existential problems if you're not careful and don't keep that

I need to have as much as the next guy impulse in check.

Ah yes, keeping up with the evil of the Jones's.

It's funny because I read a number of years ago an excellent study, there's a TED talk about this as well about the idea of a
