The business of real human development and improvement is hardly on the screen. Employees may be replaced. Companies can shut down or move or be sold. But cities and communities and human societies are here to stay. Real investment must occur.
Real growth is needed for real people.
That is the true mark of success for a society. Genuine wealth involves depth, not just breadth. Growth in superficial wealth without growth in depth spreads the tree of society without developing the trunk, a sure prescription for destruction. This is an incredibly important distinction. It is literally the difference between destruction and creation, between life and death.
