Most Common Way To Entice People To Explore Their Own Options .. Is An Opportunity To Destroy Other People's Options?

(Commentary posted by Roger Erickson)



In email from Warren Mosler, this part was especially entertaining;

"[Auto] Manufacturers are experienced at gaming the [vehicles sold] numbers."

Imagine where we'd be if Gutenberg hadn't made the illegal move of inventing printing. Or what if permanent Copy/Patent-Right had gone back to the original AdaptiveRight and OpenSource of evolution - faster than it already is?

Seeing that much effort to avoid sharing data here in a mature USA industry sector makes one appreciate how mal-adaptive policy adaptive rate remains in less coordinated industries (e.g., Wall St.) and economies.

Plus, it makes you realize how vast the untapped potential of human nation-aggregates already is! Our dynamic Output Gap is always far bigger than the static output gap we already recognize.

And, war remains the most reliable way to recruit return-on-coordination?

Wait a minute. The easiest way to entice people to explore their own options are opportunities to destroy other people's options? Go figure!

BMHOTK!

What happened to "WE came. WE saw. WE made a more perfect union?" :(

The eventual epitaph of the USA may someday feature words from an old folk song, appropriately connected to un-prosecuted fraud. (Shades of banksters with loyal, misguided accomplices!)

Hang down your head dumb electorate,
hand down your head and die,
Hang down your head dumb electorate,
poor souls, you've gone bye-bye. 
Met ourselves in the mirror, there we took our lives,
met ourselves in the mirror, shot ourselves in the foot. 
(repeat Chorus
This time next context, reckon we could'a still been here,
'stead of just a past tense, swinging from an old memory; 
Met ourselves in the mirror, shot ourselves in the foot,
hadn't been for orthodox, we'd still be here with even more diversity.
Our old image in the mirror, didn't wanna see no change,
hadn't been for fixation on stasis, we'd still be dynamic and free.

(With apologies to Laura Grandchild)
