Bill Parcells used to say “you are what you are”…seems to me there is little long range interest in preserving our species…there is only next month, or next year…maybe we are actually incapable

Well, we didn’t evolve to do anything other than reproduce successfully. Unfortunately, the feedback mechanism of natural selection can only function to prepare us for things that have happened before, not for fundamentally new threats.

We just aren’t wired to think several generations down the road. We are wired to secure our next meal by hook or crook, and screw like rabbits.
