Hey, look, I can play too.

Balance is key. Balance is unobtainable. We will forever teeter to one side, over corrected, teeter to the other, rinse, repeat.

The only way to end this cycle is for advocates of the extremes to get enough traction, likely at the limits of a teeter (interestingly it doesn't much seem to matter which direction the teeter is, advocates of that extreme will just make purity arguments), and yank us out of balance.

We don't want to end the cycle. The cycle is our friend. Libertarian capitalists and communists alike are our enemy.
