If our society seems more nihilistic than that of previous eras, perhaps
this is simply a sign of our maturity as a sentient species. As our
collective consciousness expands beyond a crucial point, we are
at last ready to accept life’s fundamental truth: that life’s only
purpose is life itself.

Early industrial policy on Planet centered on individual markets and sectors, such as Environmental Economics, but these separate sectors create inefficiencies. Proponents of Intellectual Integrity insist that these inefficiencies are unnecessary, and work to create a system of Planetary Economics where goods and services can flow freely.
