Humanism

"Holmgang."

What does a Humanist think is wrong in the Solar Union?

Millions technologically unemployed are not impoverished but sure are bitter;

economic and political power are moving to Asia (why?) where hundreds of millions culturally resist the Western New Order;

Martians, Venusians, Belters and Jovians are building new civilizations which do not fit in the Earth-led Solar Union;

the psychotechs, unable to overcome cultural resistance, are becoming oligarchic and acting unconstitutionally;

people are reacting against New Enlightenment safety, sanity and security, regarding it as decadent;

conflicing interests are irreconcilable;

social crises, including wars, are the way of progress.

Ye gods!
