The same mistakes made with fire over the past century have been made socially. We need to learn from these mistakes rather that throw even more monies into suppression efforts. Unfortunately suppression also creates powerful special interests that fight efforts to understand these mistakes and re-balance the system. These entrenched interests demand even greater efforts at suppression which will eventually result in naught. Monies should be saved to rejuvenate the system after the collapse is complete.
Huge societal excesses, deceptions, fraud and other rot has built up since the great depression of the 1930s and now is threatening yet another great depression. As with Yellowstone National Park in the past, today's political, economic and social leaders are actually bringing to fruition their greatest economic and social nightmares. Again ironically their economic remedies to control the situation are fanning the flames.
Much of the rot in society has to do with the concentration of power in all social systems. Today's leaders are continuing to try to prop up the large institutions responsible for this mess with funds siphoned off from the taxpayers. This is being done either through an overt direct increase in taxes, or from a covert hidden tax of future hyper-inflation.
While recessions and depressions may be naturally occurring rejuvenating forces like fire, these great depressions are the result of mankind's misunderstanding of the natural role of recessions and the economic cycle. Often our initial attempts to control nature and ourselves backfire because of our misunderstanding and irresponsible interference in natural processes.
After this financial, economic, political and social collapse from this catastrophic super cycle of our own creation, our social systems will recover and be rejuvenated just as is happening with Yellowstone National Park. Instead of getting the pain in small regular stable doses over time we have elected to take the pain all at once and in one huge dose. The problem is that this destabilizes the whole social system causing a huge restructuring of human activity in a short period of time. When we look back on this collective experience we may discover that a whole way of life has now truly gone with the wind.
