The functional society is what people do, not what they believe they do. Modern humans buy stuff. That’s pretty much it. They buy stuff until they can’t, then steal money from their future self and buy some more stuff. The government and corporations are doing the same thing. If any awareness is happening, it is at insurance companies, but they use their influence to shift the reality from their customers to the government’s imagined future of imaginary planets of imaginary resources(see “flood insurance”).
