The Going Rate is the Bottom Line

This is sapient existence as a privately owned business. Everything is monetized. That's what makes it Hell. Old habits die hard. Merry Christmas!

Now, humankind's existential challenge is to demonetize its sapient dignity without violating it. Naturally, the adversaries of individual agency will do everything in their power to prevent it. Those are one's existential chains, after all. Being the incorrigible manipulators they are, they will, of course, in the guise of manufactured movements, continue to offer humankind the hope of baby-stepping to existential emancipation.

The fundamental conflict here is over who gets to play God. In actuality, there is no God, only sapience. Only devils, in existential ignorance, play God. As it happens, being captive to a "higher power" is not in our DNA.

The innate quest to reverse engineer existence, to learn how it works, offers humankind the most profound trajectory. On an individual scale, there's also much to enjoy in each other and in our existential home.
