We could and we might, do a collective Crassus. Think I may just have coined a phrase.

The story goes that Crassus kept his people under subjection and abject poverty, but then the peasants revolted and killed him. As a lesson to anyone following in his wake they poured molten gold down his throat.

I could see something similar happening in the future. Who could ever have imagined the level of greed we see today?

Given we all have limited years on this earth, why?
