That’s too black-and-white, too simplistic. There are many shades of grey
in-between. In practice, some equilibrium will be reached, for depression
follows inflation, so the two may alternate to some extent in respect to
bureaucrats/managers.
That may have been true in the past but not in the new totalistic global
hegemony of bureacratic infrastructure. An equilibrium is no longer possible
except as global auto-liquidation using WMD,

About the Hippies, I was more interested in how they did perceive or think
of themselves rather than in what their social value/function was.
Greetings,

The Hippie generation was essentially suicidal, wanting too much and in the
moment. That is what Timothy Leery and LSD was all about: the quest for nirvana
qua oblivion and a perfect example of todestrieb, i.e., u-topos and nihilo
now and not tommorrow. Didn’t you ever listen to the “Greatful Dead?”
And so this mood has evolved to global proportion where doomsday is the only
option. Cold war stasis is now impossible and where technologismo has reached
critical mass in the common availability of WMD.
Sincerely;
Bernard
