There are many ways to look at things. Why not an optimistic disaster, or indeed a pessimistic opportunity - it's all possible!
Everything is useful, for those who know how to use it. Everything has a use, why are we so quick to dismiss what we don't like, what we don't want? There is no point because it just happened, better to use it, to learn.
Education has been inverted. We are predominately 'taught', we are 'apparently' prepared for life; but it is not a preparation for life because the status quo will change. A key to a more satisfactory existence, where if there is any necessity to kill each other at least we could reduce the unnecessary killing, is self-education, to have the inner capability to instinctively respond in a more useful way.
But no, logic has become the god! Logic - what logic?
One of the reasons that governments make so many mistakes and don't learn from them is because all the decision makers are trained/conditioned to make the 'right' decisions, ( even if obsessively 'economic' ) they are not trained to immediately react to the results, to what actually happens.
