It is little stories that appear in the press -- but which you never hear anything more about them -- that give the clues as to some of the big issues that are happening under the surface.[snip]
But will there be a limit to drug use in the developed world or will it grow /pari passu /with the growing numbers of the underclass -- those who live in inner city boroughs and suburban hellholes? I'm inclined to think that drug use will steadily grow, as indeed the underclass grows due to the increasing skill divide that is now a feature of the employment structure of developed countries' economies.[snip]
"Economists" and other statistical scientists seem pretty adept at predicting things and calculating the amount of such things as the "dark matter in the universe". Surely they should be able to calculate the amount of dark money in the economy from the perturbations of people's observable economic behavior? Kepler needed only [if I remember right] 8 minutes of arc to see that all previous astronomy was wrong, and to propose the universally correct alternative (elliptical vs circular orbits).
I agree that "drugs" should be legalized, and then the persons (including myself) who are concerned about how much they are used and the effect of this on our society, should use the free market to take market share away from "drugs" and redirect it to things like persons seeking more education, and redesigning work so that persons find satisfaction doing it.
