@mitsuhiko I enjoyed and agreed with this. It seems like the scenario we are going for is “long slow worsening of conditions for 99% of people” and not, say, power-plant compromise or backyard nuke.
Given our collective response to this on the climate, I want to try to be positive about this when it comes to economics, but find it hard to be.
