$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Devin', ' ')Are you visualizing anything in particular when you talk of "the future" and "the Earth's life systems"? (Children, perhaps?)
I'm visualizing (very fuzzy picture) - you, actually. So yes, children.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Ibon', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('GASMON', '[')However, space is the next frontier for our modern day competitors, THE CHINESE. They increasingly have the know how, and currently have (all) the money.
I hear these references of the Chinese being our competitors and also hear that they are coming late to the consumption party.
They are not late to the party. They have arrived just in time. Their austere cultural heritage is perfectly timed for prospering on the energy descent. It is almost orchestrated how their emergence is timed with the peak of major resources. No culture has been better honed to surviving in depleted environments as the Chinese. They are not our competitors but rather enablers to extend Kudzu Ape further into overshoot.
Getting to Space? I think your dreaming. Kudzu Ape will not extend it's invasive nature beyond the planet IMHO.
You have hit right on why Goldman Sachs and the American Government are so interested in China. The same way that smart Brits invested in the US smart Americans are investing in China.
When it comes down to it, the people will always shout, "Free Barabbas." They love Barabbas. He's one of them. He has the same dreams. He does what they wish they could do. That other guy is more removed, more inscrutable. He makes them think. "Crucify him."
