I am currently on a project that is closest to a process where we take money from people for a dream. The viability of the dream defines the potential candidates available for this or any dream.
If you listed the criteria that dreams need to match to the investors and you do the same with the investors both lists used to have close to the top intellect. Why because good projects need smart people to build them and smart people tend to have money who then sort them out and buy them.
This is near fully inverted now, the characteristic that allows this to happen is Socialism because the smart people are not at the top of each list anymore. Both lists are populated with lefty's and narcissists.
Its a big problem, but we do our best. The train for electricity project is going to be developed and bought by stupid Narcissists.

Not to worry Non. The peaks of logic, competence, intellect and morality (with their attendant success) will come round again. We just have to wait a while, nudge it along, perform some critical surgery, and hope that critical elements of the structure and process are not mortally damaged. I doubt the later ... as humanity (in parts or in whole) has been here many times before. Failures are ingrained in the engine of the system. Casualties vary with Epic and side. Who can observe the World and conclude that there are not cycles in practically everything? Forever different in detail and expression, but genetically related. Shakespeare's "Tides in the affairs of men", and Boulding's "No process in the World is linear for long". And others ...
Socialists would have you believe that governments can solve all society's ills. But wherever people have given them a job, they have come to serve themselves and small groups of the Entitled. And thus, have failed miserably. Did Churchill say it best? "There is nothing government can give you that it hasn't taken from you in the first place". And remember ... the electorate fired Churchill.

Wall street journal article wasn't nearly as complimentary.
California has the most expensive energy in the US by a factor of 2 and up to 5.

It hit $1,873.90 in June, far exceeding her $1,200 rent and around double what it was two summers ago.
