Too bad it peaked 2000 years ago.

I know it’s kind of a meme, but Diogenes was really onto something. Don’t keep what you do not need, how can someone be respected as a person if they depend on servants, a wealthy ruler is no different from a slave once they’ve died, etc.

it'll peak once we figure out how the universe was created, and how it relates to the rest of human existence.
