OTOH, I feel like the intelligentsia of every age have been disgusted with the systemic failures around them. To put it bluntly, the system isn't for you, it's for people with IQ's of 100 by necessity.
I feel like the largest impact we can have on the future is looking for ways to increase mean intelligence. Otherwise we are perpetually stuck in the model of waiting for brilliant outliers to fix things.
