I deal with the contradiction of being a retired mechanical engineer and a Luddite at the same time. I have lost faith in our government: it is totally controlled by the corporate monster that is gobbling up the world. It uses mechanical engineers to make weapons or machinery to put people out of work while obscenely stripping natural resources. So long as science, medicine, education, justice, legislative and media are bought and controlled by psychopathic oligarchs, Big Brother will guide tech to rule, steal and murder. CO2 climate change is just another boogieman/woman that will be used to cull and control us while making a joke of the word 'sustainable.' Consequently, I live in a rural area and am learning to grow my own food. This has brought me in closer contact with Nature, the real world, and I have never felt more spirituality. The country and the world can continue on its path to hell, and I will still find peace.
