like every functioning nation, it has citizens with jobs, an army with ranks, a supply chain, emergency responders, a construction crew — and one place where all of them are born. You carry it everywhere. You've never thought of it this way. Let's change that.

It is because your brain has a few evolutionary "bugs" that prevent you from acting.
