ROGER REPLIES TO FINTAN , JB, HORSE, MARY AND RICHARD Fintan, I agree with the your concern on the term 'static' .I prefer the simple "pattern of value"or "patterned value". As for "chaotic", sorry, but I don't like it. It doesn't do it for me. "dynamic" seems perfect. PATTERNED VALUE and DYNAMIC VALUE That's what captures it best for me. Or does it set me free? **** Jonathan, Let's start something interesting. I mean REAL interesting...... What sounds fun all? **** Horse, I guess I need a new economics course. What you described as Socialism is so far removed from what I am familiar with when the term is used that it is unrecognizable. I don't think I had any concerns with what you described. (Quite the compliment from someone who sees the value in libertarian capitalism) But where is the State Ownership? Where is the income redistribution? The Socialized medicine? The long lines for toilet paper and oranges? Come to think of it, the closest model to what you described that I am familiar with is The good ol' US of A. Seriously, I like your vision as stated, but I would suggest a new name ....or is that the whole point of calling it libertarian socialism? Oh, I hope the exam went well!!!!!! ****** Richard and Mary, Thanks for sharing. >>Organisms, even animals like humans, have no way of directly inspecting their own mechanistic biological states, so their biological requirements have to make themselves evident in a way that can be readily interpreted. This resulted, eventually, in the conscious experience of desire. >> I just got a new book called "Friday's Footprint" by Brothers. It explains consciousness and the mind as products of biology and society....i am only on the second chapter though. >>>>"The organsism and the enviornment form an indissoluble entity that is to say...there are adaptational variations simultaneously involving a structuring of the organsim and an action of the enviornment, the two being inseperable from each other.">>>> You gotta read :The Web Of Life by Capra . You will love it! (Have you finished it yet Horse?) I think I feel an socio-biological urge to go read......
