What's the Worst Way to Save the World?
I'm exasperated by the multitude of foolish and counteractive ways people are trying to save the world. 'Let's support education, especially special education!' Fools! 'Let's give money to poor countries!' Fools! 'Let's all meditate and our waves of meditation will cross the world!' Fools! 'Let's give up agriculture and industry and reduce population and return the world to a primitivist state!' Fools! I could go on for 20 pages. Foolish ways of saving the world -- are destroying the world.

Mainly because education is often used as a tool of control, and I'm wary of increasing its power. Education in the sense of education-without-schools (like Wikipedia's goal) is better than education-through-more-schools though.
