For Society's Sake, We Need To Fix Trust.

The colluding people in power know that if we can’t trust each other then we can’t work well together. So they seed distrust. We fix this with transparency. The corrupt cannot be transparent.

As a result we are losing or have lost trust in most of the systems that govern over our lives. Trust in government, academia, medicine, police, voting, science, spirituality, even language (what’s a woman?) and thus - EACH OTHER - is broken.

We need to fix this. There is a way:

1) Transparency = Trust

2) Decentralization

Once we fix the trust we can reach the true potential of humans - which is as super collaborators. When we work together and trust each other we are almost unstoppable. Working together starts with trust.

So, first things first: we need to fix trust.

There is a way. Stay tuned. The next step is building a trustworthy platform for all scale human collaboration. We will tackle this very soon!

As always the entire purpose of The Rationalist is to connect with other solutions-minded people like yourself! For 4 billion years on this planet there were only single-celled organisms. Then one day they somehow learned to work together and make complex multi-celled creatures like you and me. Right now we are like those single-celled organisms. Our next evolution is finding how to work together, better.

If you enjoy strategizing solutions The Rationalist implores you to contribute your thoughts on several other big problems we covered here, here, and here (and more!)

COMMENTS ARE FOR EVERYONE AS A PLACE TO THINK TANK SOLUTIONS. They will never be for paid-only subscribers and we will never charge a subscription.
