Part 5: The Singularity Question - Who Inherits the Future?

Gods or Ashes, Part 5: The Singularity Question

Part 5 asks who benefits when it arrives. Our electricity, water, taxes and data are already paying for the buildout, with no guaranteed return, and why the alternatives everyone points to won't happen.
