Humans and their Institutions

                                    
                                             
                                          
Humans create institutions such as financial, political,
and numerous others for the purpose of providing useful
ways for communities of humans to interact.  As humans
are not perfect beings, their institutions cannot be
perfect.  In these days of frightening uncertainties,
uncertainties of planetary significance, the question--
and it is a dual question--is:  Can known evils in an
institutional system/ be eradicated by humans, or are   
those evils so entrenched they are beyond the/ control
of humans?  If the latter is true, the only solution is
the eradication of all humans.                           
                                                        
Some believe humans are heading toward a day when 
all will be awakened into a new consciousness.  I believe
such a day, if it is to be, had better come quickly or that
which is evil may well get beyond human control.
                                                        
As you can see, for the moment, I remain optimistic,
sort of.  What if evil and good in the realms of human
activities are equally powerful?  If the answer to this
question is yes, then it is as a coin toss, the fate of  
human existence on this planet where resources so
much in demand happen to be in decline, resources
such as money while greed and bribery slither/ hither
and yon unabated.
