We are running things the wrong way.

 We are trying to optimize the GDP which is proportional to the amount of the money that ends up in our bank accounts. We do not know how to optimize our resilience since we are not measuring it. We could model our resilience growth and compare the difference between the model requirements and the reality, Then the investments should go to the reduction of the difference before ending up in our bank accounts. Then we would have enough ventilators to meet pandemic, like Covid-19. Then we would have enough decarbonization to meet global warming challenge.

Money in our bank accounts is not important enough when we are ruining our life to get it.
