Spaceship Earth is a large bureaucratic corporation with pretensions to being a body politic with a larger identity. Kinda like those tourist trap towns run by cruise lines. Public Earth is a tourist trap run by Privatized Earth.

If firefighters spent most of their time firefighting they'd consider that a failure. So much of their effort is on preventing fires.

I agree. Perhaps the fire is entropy. Thus staffs police & fight to exact its opposing effects (motivation, mutation, transformation, expansion), if that makes any sense.

Semi related - I’ve worked with teams that complained about the amount of firefighting, and ones that didn’t. The difference was 0% the number of actually unanticipated emergencies that were needed to be dealt with, but rather a statement on the resilience of the team.

I encounted some hunter mentality sales folks who are allergic to firefighting. They will say, there is a need to another entity to be firefighters as sales has to bring in revenue. We can say conquer new territory
