How do you strike that balance? Is the balance dynamic (moving)? What "feedback mechanisms" will keep the balance?

Wish I knew.


keep thinking on it. from the "big picture" prospective
it's already in place and it's working on the galactic
scale. even much more narrowly focused down to the planet
earth herself - the self-governing, self-sustaining,
self-evolving life system is working already. we just
need to observe and emulate and build upon and into the
"natural way" or "nature of the universe". the network
is the infrastructure of the system and the information
flow is the feedback that maintains the balance. and yes,
the balance is dynamic. it HAS to be.
<talking in broad generalities now>

if the core is aligned with natural law and the
matrix is aligned with the properties of the core
and the superstructure is aligned with the matrix,
then eufrickin'reeka! you've got the perfect system.
it's outgrowth can then become ultra-complex without
everyone having to be a genius to understand it and
operate within the bounds of the system -- all one
has to do to functionally participate, contribute
and reap is understand the simple natural law of the
core and remain in alignment with that.

am i making sense?

am i spouting obvious, over-simplistic ideas that have
been postulated by economists for centuries? i don't
know, i've never studied economic theory beyond simplistic
fundamentals like laws of supply and demand.

there has to be someone out there that has already
studied and formulated, and proposed, and written
extensively along this line of thought...

help me out here lurqing dude. i'm a guy whose education
is based on witty one-line quotations and observations of
the weather and the stock market, not on volumes of
scientific study and research.
