So maybe folks would be happier if they allowed high density land-trust style housing nearby, so they can remain relatively “middle income." in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:59:22, 2017-05-24
They’ll have asset wealth, but without the corresponding income… which all new residents must have — either that or much more asset wealth. in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:57:57, 2017-05-24

Meanwhile, aspiring to wealth consumes a lot of people’s limited time, & also natural resources, that could be put toward other happinesses. in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:44:03, 2017-05-24
And there are other things that make people happy without this problem. Autonomy. Competence. Friendships. Exercise. Good health. Trees. in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:41:10, 2017-05-24
It’s a source of happiness that by its nature cannot be accessible to everyone. You can shuffle around who gets it, but someone has to lose. in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:37:10, 2017-05-24
Systemically, being happy that you’re in the upper part of the income spectrum is the same as being happy that other people are poor. in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:36:04, 2017-05-24

Runaway renewable adoption CANNOT HAPPEN unless we also create a financing mechanism for removing more costly fossil assets from the system. in reply to ZaneSelvans 10:06:55, 2017-04-06
