Trickle-down ‘theory’ was never serious science;
it was always a rhetorical mask for a more straightforward goal:
making the rich richer.
On that front, when we take the stated goal of enriching the wealthy at face value,
suddenly the evidence makes sense.
Across states, the relative income of the richest Americans scales consistently with Republican politics.
So it seems that despite the trickle-down charade, the plutocracy was always the point.

Octopuses possess a radically decentralized nervous system,
with the majority of their neurons residing in their arms.
Some say the octopus is a single organism with 9 brains.
From another perspective, we can say it is nine organisms housed within a single skin.
How can multiple humans come to inhabit a single organism with distributed sensory and decision-making capabilities?
How is cognition located in the network that spans bodies and environments?

The fallacy I've experienced in both personal relations and international politics is the belief that there exists an option in which everything stays the same. Not touching the steering wheel, simply continuing as is, will mean all is well, and it's seemingly not as much of a decision as actively interfering is.
The trolly problem exposes this belief, yet we have not really overcome it.
