[ExI] How slow is capitalism?

[Jones Murphy]

A collapse of civilization will not end money, though it might return it to
a more concrete form for a while. I do not disagree that there ought to be
more talent focused on R&D, though.

You can call it capitalism if you want and I will call it a colossal
waste of talent.

But don't complain when you wake up one morning and the power is off
for good along with the Internet and nobody has any idea of how much
"money" they have because it was all recorded in magnetic dots on
spinning disks.
