The insane level of complexity in our current civilization is one of the main things convincing me collapse is inevitable and will be catastrophic once it really gets rolling. Remember when the Law consisted of 10 very straightforward Commandments? Today, just the building code fills an entire library. Remember when banking could be done with a couple of clerks and an abacus? Today you need warehouses full of superconducting supercomputers burning enough electricity to light up Jupiter. When it blows, it will be something to behold. Everybody knows.
