Sky Shields and Alicia Cerretani discuss the anti-entropic nature of life, and its relationship to creativity as an all-pervasive principle of the universe. They explore several examples of so-called "convergent evolution," and discuss its relationship to large-scale galactic, and inter-galactic cycles, as well as its significance for economic policy making today. Free-trade and liberalism are the enemies of creativity, and must be rejected in favor of true creative progress if we as a species are to survive the death of this present, rotten, system.
