Follow the Incentives

From Derek Thompson:

The state that once poured concrete for public parks now licenses gambling platforms. The country that regulates a lemonade stand will let an 18-year-old day-trade options on his phone. In short: The first half of the twentieth century was about mastering the physical world, the first half of the twenty-first has been about escaping it.

The role of the environments and defaults can’t be overstated here.
