How can the rights of the individual be protected and therewith a democratic counterweight to the power of bureaucracy be assured?

So for me I think it would just be the emotional part of it.

It is why we are still dependant on energy sources that are 100 to 150 years old while virtually every other sector of the economy has transformed itself.

The creative process ignites our imagination, and I believe that that same imagination is what will propel us forward with issues of social change.
