    FROM PM

    POSSIBILITY ONE:

    Confusing two hierarchies.

    Right and Wrong are higher categories.

    Right: righteous, moral, ethical, amoral.

    Wrong: evil, Immoral, unethical, amoral

    POSSIBILITY TWO

    One hierarchy creating ambiguity

    Right: righteous, moral, ethical, reciprocal, right, amoral.

    Wrong: evil, Immoral, unethical, criminal, wrong, amoral

    BOTH

    Both converge on the amoral

    Both treat right and wrong as minor infractions.

    SUGGESTION

    I would suggest keeping categories of right and wrong and the subcategories within them.

    -hugs

    Well I’m a practitioner, right? So I don’t know how to make a higher endorsement than that.

    Turchin, Kondratiev, Strauss and Howe, Caroll, Toynbee, Spenger, Durant … I mean, my model is a little lower level, meaning military, economic, and demographic, rather than statistical, so I tend to think in supply demand curves rather than statistical correlations, but I’m not just a follower but a practitioner.I’M A PRACTITIONER OF CYCLES

    There are a small number of optimum houses: the longhouse (cold rural family), the manor-house(porches, large farm, multi-generation), the courtyard house(suburban multi-generation), the townhouse with shared courtyard (mult-generation), the paris-house (apartments) with shared courtyard and boulevards.

    I find the whole open-concept return to longhouses interesting and obvious. It’s the optimum.

    Most political conflict would rapidly dissipate if maintaining a checking account, accounting, basic economics, business economics, and macro economics was taught early in life. And if basic contracts were taught early in life. And if economic history were taught early in life.

    There is a reason they don’t teach it.

    So the state can lie.
