carrying capacity as a logistical determinism is based on various models, you change the implementation you change the resolution.

we can shake the equation out via existing technology, but we cannot do so because the organization of those models is engendered by the profit motive.

it would seem that those with money and power invariably are the sorts of people unable to wield it properly – this is quite telling about the human animal. moreover: the degree of introspection

into the operations of the human mind, as a practice turned outward has given rise to forms which are essentially aberrations and ultimately inhuman.

did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?

it has been well remarked that most men lead lives of quiet desperation, but this is a bad perspective and like all perspectivisms (morality comes to mind) they are ultimately diminished by the external world of one’s fellow creatures.

the models break down in practice.

a victory garden is a very good first shot as the princes of this age, it is to be encouraged, but we have had the technology to make food so cheap that only the rich would starve and then as a mere cultural function – this is not only possible from a sustainability standpoint it is necessary.

instead we have gmo’s and farm subsidies, we have a deregulated economic model and free trade.

science is the bitch of money and power, the world is seemingly run by Malthusians..

the documentary “the corporation” makes a decent case for the corporation (being a legal entity like a person) being a psychopath.

one thing is certain, the corporations sole motive is often the profit motive, to this end it is “an externalizing machine”, and the cost is paid by everyone.

this is an inefficient model for the organization of production, all centralized control has the same flaw, the most successful companies themselves are emergent in that they emerge from the employees.

but what is necessary is an emergent governmental system of virtual representation.

it is not the modeling of the human being and its entrance into synthetic systems which has commoditized human life and made us all into synthetic properties of a discrete system – it is the inaccuracy and improbability of the model, its lack of sophistication.

and yet this transparency itself is a double edged sword. one must have a culture fit to use such a tool, for now you literally Are your FICO score.

guns and butter, napalm and color tv.

it should be increasingly apparent to us that our entire theory of civilization is built on flawed principles.

its structure is predictably sick and inhuman as a result, survival in the Jeffersonian sense is required but will not be enough to address that the crystal palace has been built up on a foundation of sand.
