ha. the status quo gets destroyed sooner or later anyway. stasis is a form of change because stasis turns into degeneration. The status quo requires energy to remain the status quo.

the real problem is not moving fast enough, in not being able to develop fast enough, in not learning fast enough.

for instance, unemployment is both caused by and a failure of the speed of development. if a person is unemployed, the problem they have is not being able to transition to a new or different industry because they can't learn fast enough.

arguing to keep the status quo is arguing to "slow down". And it's usually a disguised argument of sentimentality or of a vested interest.
