I was busy reading James Fallows’ newest piece on rebuilding trust and on the importance of local solutions to build up connections, civic skills and governance, and I have to say this post was a nice complement. I also think that labor unions will be crucial in creating the conditions to rebuild trust--while Hamilton Nolan said a few times that they might need to start using funds for massive organizing drives, I believe unions that get in on the industries of the future, specifically energy startups, will be the smartest institutions out there in the future

Interesting post and thread ~ thank you. Could it be possible that we are headed for all of the above (greater fragmentation, stable roads that forestall this, and new undiscovered roads?). I think all three can be true of companies, and of reality itself. The danger is in thinking any one group or individual has the 'corner on the truth." Complex world, and trust is often something we can evaluate analytically, with data, and also with our experience. Thank you.
