Chose Solutions that are easy to Improve On

If they don't work out.

This has been suggested by many people, and should be taken seriously.

Consider the Computer, that has had many effects on us. We should have paid careful attention to its development (the transition from the Desktop to the Laptop, for example) and the development of the Cloud.

The key word here is development. 

We assume this is beneficial, but sometimes it is not.

Consider Industry, as in Industrialization. I grew up in an industrial town: Ft. Madison, Iowa. It had the Santa Fe Railroad on the West End (where we lived) and Sheaffer Pen (that made fountain pens) on the East End, where my Father had his Photography studio. Where people got their pictures took after they got married.

None of this now exists, and the West End has turned into a slum.

All this was developed in the first half of the 20th Century and then closed down in the last half.

And people said "It couldn't be helped!"

It could have been helped alright - if they had noticed what was going on.
