A Brief History of the Future

This sounded really good, but watching it got boring very fast. Aside from some nice visuals there's not much going on here. Which is probably what I should have expected from someone who makes his living by being glib and nonthreatening to the corporations who purchase his services.

It's nice to hear from some of the people who are trying to make changes for the better, but what struck me was the total absence of attribution for the problems being addressed. I suspect that's because the corporations causing so many of the world's problems are Wallach's clients, or at least potential clients.

I'm not pessimistic about the future, but this kind of.rose-tinted glass view isn't going to help anyone deal with the changes we're facing.
