Agreed. As a young person I really wish our country had just one "front" to be united on. My dad describes the JFK Space Race years as pretty magical.

hm, what qualifies you for this position? I've definitely slept quite a bit...

but seriously, isn't the mattress industry just kind of a hoax? People have been sleeping on the ground for a lot longer than mattresses, and I personally feel much better after sleeping on a hard surface. Are we all just too used to matresses? Look at japan for example. Legit yoga mats and they live longer than we do.

Hi Professor, thanks for the AMA. I've spent time working with World Bank employees on several projects. While not going into specics, do you think change must be instituted through large institutions such as World Bank? Our political system is inherently disabled in many ways abroad, and it seems that economics are the key force at play and will remain the major motivator in developing a sustainable future. Thoughts?

This is so important. Hope that he sees this. Great question.
