Exponential Growth or State-Powered Stagnation: What Will Be Our Future?

The Law of Accelerating Returns describes an exponential path to what for many is an unimaginable future. Will the exponential be allowed to benefit mankind or will we regress to stagnation and slavery under globalist rule? The answer to this question lies in the following question: will the exponential allow us to benefit humanity or regress?

The Exponential Explained

• Exponential growth is a feature of any evolutionary process, of which technology is a primary example.
• Although "exponential trends did exist a thousand years ago, they were at that very early stage where an exponential trend is so flat that it looks like no trend at all."
• Humans live in a linear world, and often believe progress will continue at the present rate. This is not surprising, since any sufficiently short period on an exponential scale will be experienced as linear
• The full impact of exponential growth can be seen in the tale of the inventor of chess and his patron, the emperor of China. In response to the emperor's offer of a reward for his new beloved game, the inventor asked for a single grain of rice on the first square, two on the second square, four on the third, and so on
• Where does exponential growth take us? It will appear to explode into infinity.

Kurzweil's Batting Average

• Of the 147 predictions in his book, 115 were "entirely correct," 12 were "essentially correct," 17 were "partially correct", and only 3 were "wrong."
• This gives him an accuracy rate of 86 percent.
• He became a successful entrepreneur by applying his knowledge of exponential trends

The Implosion of the Current World Order

• The actions of governments in accordance with Event 201, which inflicted a globally totalitarian response to a virus; the stated aims of the World Economic Forum, in which by 2030 what's left of humanity will become happy slaves of an elite; the extinction of fiat monetary systems brought to ruin by central bank counterfeiting; governments defaulting on their debt and unable to pay their employees-all of this and more will create a world of opportunity perhaps never before seen.
• Freedom and free markets will emerge by default if not by intention.

Conclusion The future will not be man versus government terminators, but technologically enhanced humans prospering together

• The state, which will still exist only if we fail ourselves, will be relegated to the dark chambers of history
