Coronavirus and Human Relationships

Epidemics and pandemics have been around since the dawn of humanity. It is a dangerous planet in many ways and we just must accept the reality. Human knowledge has come a long way since those first pandemics tens of thousands of years ago. The coronavirus, Covid 19 of today, it attacks humanity as the internet age is well established, and the principles that led to the creation of the internet are vastly important as humans leave behind the age of fire and enter the phase when humans use specific radiation for specific tasks.

Fire was our first control of radiation and it has taken us to the age where some humans are contemplating on how to settle on worlds beyond this planet. The control of fire has brought us this far. Fire boiled the water and sterilized utensils thousands of years ago, reducing the chances of pandemics. Cooking food reduced the pathogens we took into our stomachs.

We shall discuss fire in a further podcast, this coronavirus has disturbed the sequence of the podcast and obviously other planned undertakings all over the world. Take care of what is in your hands, what is in other hands is not up to you.

The human knowledge that has increased since the dawn of humanity is not only about pandemics and the pathogens that cause these epidemics and pandemics. We understand far more about what type of relationships these viruses have with the humans. A relationship that clearly humans dread and would rather not have that relationship. Humans understand that these viruses just need a host that fits specific parameters and organization of information.

Not forgetting that a human being and that virus are made up of the same thing, basic particles, and stuff even finer as proved in colliders. This stuff we have called konke, because the man who pointed out what is happening in every experiment with a collider, in his language konke is everything, and he termed that finest of particles, the stuff that goes into every basic particle, konke.  Both the human and the virus are just information organized in a different manner because of relationships. As both the virus and the human being are made up of basic particles, but different relationships that basic particles are having with each other such that we can categorize some types of relationships that basic particles and atoms as viruses, and other relationships as human beings.

As everything is made up of the same stuff and it all has the same basic characteristics, I have said much about this over the years, the virus needs other pieces of living information to have certain conditions so that it can thrive. Sometimes the human fits this bill according to how the virus is structured. As all relationships take energy to maintain, when a virus gets into a relationship with a human, it does not want to waste its energy under conditions that it can not thrive. This is why pandemics are a random event.

Pandemics and epidemics are random events because the pathogens are not always equipped with the right type of energy to make a relationship with human beings such that whatever it is it becomes what we have termed a pandemic. The virus must have the right characteristics. All events are random including the event that led to our existence the big bang. It is not always when a pathogen can become a pandemic, specific parameters must be met or the relationship can not take place that leads to a pandemic.

Those relationships are for the medical experts, but we know it is all about relationships because everything in this universe is in a relationship and all those relationships take energy to maintain. With pathogens, the energy needed to maintain the relationship might end in the death of the human, that is why humans dread this type of relationship.

It is not just our knowledge about viruses that has increased since humans first appeared on this earth, we understand viruses, that is why we try to develop vaccinations against them. In time as we understand further the relationships between pathogens and humans, our techniques of protecting ourselves will increase.

Our knowledge of many, many other things has also increased since the dawn of humanity. We fly destroying such statements like if man was meant to fly god will have given man wings. Our imagination and desire to mimic nature has led to humans flying, creating their own wings. We have podcasts, smart phones, abundance in some societies of food, but the principles to create that abundance of food is available to each and every society. We kill without putting ourselves in harms way like the gods, we kill from a distance. But the principles of killing from a distance are available to all human beings. Thus, though killing from a distance, any society can organize such that they too do the same thus not decreasing the chances of death. We have lit streets from electricity, don’t have to walk in the scary dark, but these principles of lit streets are available to all societies.

Some societies actively research pathogens in order to understand better the relationships between pathogens and human beings, thus be better able to protect themselves, the principles that lead to a society being able to afford to research pathogens and thus better protect themselves are available to all societies.

If the principles are there for every society to utilize in all these things that require the human mind, like research a pathogen and use equipment and other techniques to reduce the effects of pathogens, then societies either respect these principles or disrespect them in how they organize their society. At the end of the day a society by its actions is only rewarding or punishing itself.

All societies in todays world on this planet fall under a jurisdiction of a government. A government can not justify it’s existence on any moral grounds if it makes no effort to protect the physical borders of that society. Why is this? It is because of the physical relationships the society has with what is within those physical borders. That is where society get’s it’s physical resources to exist and food and shelter are derived from these resources. The resources lay within the physical borders.

Once the physical borders are violated, the societies very existence is at stake. An attack on the borders is a random event like all other events in existence. Being a random event and will more likely take place if there are no gaurds at the border, the government has to be doing something, that is the very existence of that society at stake.

Famine is a random event, but it is more likely to occur in societies organized in a certain manner that increases the likelihood with having a famine. Given that all these principles are there for all societies in this age of the podcast, it means societies have chosen a set of paths that include greater likelihood of having a famine, the famine is evidence of this reality. A government doing it’s duty to the preservation of that society would have policies that ensure greater agricultural output. Greater agricultural outupu includes better agricultural techniques like irrigation, top quality seeds, proper feeding of livestock, all this is about a society having the best economic activity taking place within its boundaries.

We can not defy reality, there has to be some economic activity taking place. A government in the way of this production is giving way to famine, a random event whose chances can be reduced with sound principles accepting that people must be allowed to put food on the table in the manner that they are good at, and only the individual can truly know what they are good at, that will ensure enough taxation for the government to understand what to do when these random crises spring upon the society.

A famine would not likely affect the food rations of those who are the heads of governments whose societies constantly face hunger. It is because of this that don’t mind. They will take the little that is there for themselves.

A healthy society is one that must rely first and paramount on hygiene, a bath a day if possible is a good culture. Is there the money to build such a structure that it is possible for society to have that one bath a day given all the principles we understand, not just about pathogens but how to organize society that it produces the most amount of knowledge, more importantly it utilizes the most amount of knowledge it possibly can.

Acquiring of knowledge is a random undertaking, who is at acquiring knowledge is always random at any time. As acquiring of knowledge is random, and each human being is a random information package, every human being alive today is a product of chance. There will always be those little differences on thought of how to do things, how to solve a problem. Society needs to understand this for creating the most knowledge. At the end of the day, knowledge being random is about trial and error.

As knowledge is trail and error, the relationship between human beings in a society that accepts this reality is that the more people participating the better. If somebody believes they have a better way of doing things, they will have that right to be proven wrong or right. In doing things better that individual action will benefit the whole society, as the society will see a better way of doing things and will recognize this fact so that others can involve themselves, that is why it is important to know where ideas originate from. It might turn out to be not a better way, the society learns not to do it that way.

The government, if and only if it desires, and has a sound respect and appreciation that knowledge is a random thing will protect all equally, all will have the same rights, then society will organize itself in a manner of respecting knowledge, economic activity will follow these realities around knowledge. Only a society that actually respects the importance of knowledge in economic activity will allow somebody to say I can do it better and is allowed to try, succeed or fail. Somebody has to be always allowed to say that is wrong, there is a better way. Somebody is anybody, the culture has to accept somebody is anybody.

The knowledge process is like a computer in very slow motion, but still a computer. Respecting knowledge leads a society to grow its knowledge base. It does this by trial and error, just like a computer making complex calculations. Once knowledge is confirmed as true, the society adds upon that knowledge, bit by bit, a society that respects knowledge, the society is always calculating, be it buildings, making an engine, creating better weapons, improving on building technologies, better and more efficient transport, improvements in scientific theory getting closer to the origins of everything such as understanding everything is in a relationship and all relationships take energy to maintain, better medicines and health care as we understand better the relationships between pathogens and human beings, a society that respects knowledge as a whole, through all those individual calculations, because somebody, anybody is allowed to participate, and should be actively encouraged to participate and do things better if they can, adding to the capacity of the society acting as a computer.

Doctor Ben Carson talked at a White House press briefing on Saturday March 21 2020, in the middle of the Corvid – 19 pandemic, he understood when he mentioned that housing has everything to do with healthcare, a clean environment, a good modern home with the best the technology has to offer is a safer environment from pathogens. Good homes and housing come from a sound economy; the whole economy is what the government taxes. Good housing is not only good for one’s health, but it also signals the economic output of the society, the societies ability to mobilize resources.

The nature of how a society decides to look after its healthcare is up to that society, however when it comes to a pandemic, like an invasion of the borders threatens the existence of society. Famine too threatens the existence of society, a starving people are hardly loyal and shouldn’t be expected to be loyal to a government whose member have fat shiny chicks at any circumstances if they are using their mind, but if they believe the famine is an act of god, and all they have to do is pray or dance for rain to end the famine, then they will be loyal, they know no better, they never appreciated themselves, the culture didn’t let them appreciate themselves.

A government is there to protect the people, if a plague or pandemic wipes out the population there is no use for that government because that government would have failed in its duty. Given the reality of 2020, and that all societies know and understand that it takes resources to take care of something like a pandemic that threatens the entire society. All these principles are there for all societies, those that feign that their cultures will not allow these principles should not be shocked by starvation and misery caused by disrespecting knowledge.

When a pandemic strike, a government has to have a contingency plan, people are not paying taxes just to have a bloated government where people can suck others for food, shelter and clothing. A government needs to have been prepared, then what is its role? A pandemic is a random event, a prudent government from experience would know this and be ready.

That means the money and resources must be made available so that people can continue to eat, then don’t quarantine them if it is as normal and people should look after themselves. To make sure there is food, the government would best have operated a balanced budget a surplus or miniscule deficit, because fighting a pandemic like a war is expensive, people need to eat whilst they are in quarantine. If a government has wasted this money then people will go outside looking for food and endanger everybody, people need to eat. The government should be aware of these things and be prepared. All those people need to eat, they have been paying taxes for a reason, the government can’t come and say there is no money, where is the money, what was it spent on, who was the money spent on now that people have no food with such an unforeseen disaster but is known to be random.

It is about respecting each other and respecting ourselves. Allowing equality before the law, means all can participate in the economy, the more people participating, the more the government can collect in taxes to be ready to defend the lives of the citizenry. There is no excuse today for a government not to be able to feed people through a pandemic knowing the reality that in many societies people are living paycheck to paycheck. A pandemic is an invasion, it can be a very deadly invasion, and it doesn’t choose, it chooses a human being. A pandemic production can be cut dearly, people are not going to work, the government will be collecting less taxes, it should be ready for such an eventuality, good budgets means resources will be there when production is being cut.

The best system to generate these resources is one that allows anybody to say I can do it better, or this is wrong, and the system allows them to try and get their acknowledgement, be it profit, recognition for work, royalties, a recognition for improving societies knowledge base. A society working together understanding the meaning of the word a professional attitude.

With sound production, a society improves its chances when it comes to defending its borders, it reduces the effects of relying totally on nature for food, thus reducing chances of famine, it has the money and resources to better survive a pandemic.

It is about recognizing that everything is in a relationship, relationship are all random and have a cost in energy to maintain them. The pathogen causing the pandemic has to be in a relationship with human beings in order to kill them. The idea is a society understands how these relationships occurs and creates some type of inoculation that will break up this relationship. These brings into play the second law of information, as everything is information, an information package will remain in it’s present state unless a relationship is established, the medical experts know they must create new relationships to combat the existing relationship the pathogen has with humans.

A Pandemic is a random event, a society will be ready for it, even if the entire society perishes from that pandemic, at least it recognized that the pandemic is dangerous and was always ready to do the best it could for itself by following sound principles that allow the society to be actively ready for such an event. It gave its best even if exterminated by the pandemic, that is all the universe can ask,  do your best to survive and prepare yesterday as best as possible for survival in any eventuality by having been prepared yesterday by following sound principles of knowledge creation.

Those finding themselves not within the trade routes means they have nothing to offer the world in terms of technology, knowledge creation but already identified resources by other minds like raw materials, they better be specifically created, because a pandemic this means absolute critical danger, because there is no respect for knowledge, that is why they are not on the trade routes where the pandemic will first travel. But it will reach there in this world of 2020.

Has a society fallen short of being best ready for a pandemic given that all the principles are out here? If not, that means that society was only looking after a click, it was robbing  better to think of a government that is for the people, the first idea for that is all are equal before the law, the law has no class, race, ethnicity, or religious affiliation. This finally leads to anybody, as all have equal rights under the law, then anybody can say that is wrong, I know a better way. In a pandemic one will not see wholesale prizes of basic hygiene increase, when all lives are at stake.

look around you, look at society, look at the relationship’s humans have with each other, you know why?

Food, Defence, Economic Organization and Relationships

The podcast can be found here: Food Defence Economics Relationships

When one mentions words like economic organization, one is talking about a society, people who share a common border. That common area within the border is administrated by a government, there are some people in charge of that society. That society is made up of individuals, that is the basic unit of society, of all societies a fact that one can never escape.

This basic unit of society, the individual primarily needs food and water to survive. Water to stay hydrated and food to have energy to enter more meaningful relationships of being an individual than just waiting to die if you are starving. After one has food, they can look for shelter, they have the energy to undertake this task. They would prefer the best shelter they can get given the circumstances. Most people today buy this shelter, rent this shelter or inherit this shelter. They also must buy the food if they do not grow it for themselves, most of the world’s population today lives in an urban setup not growing their own food.

Most must do some activity that they will be compensated for and they can convert that compensation to purchase food and shelter. What has happened to most? They must have food and they receive energy to enter a relationship like work to be paid for that energy expanded in creating that relationship. With that pay they will have money for food and shelter and extra luxuries if the compensation for each calory at the end of the next time period covers more than just food and shelter.

An individual most often must leave their shelter and go and make relationships to be rewarded in spending that energy in making relationships with food and shelter. They go and make relationships within what we have termed society. We have termed these relationships where people are compensated for expanding energy in a relationship to get compensated as the economy of the society. At the end of the day it is the value of the relationship that one is compensated for.

Value of a relationship in economic activity is more than just output. Take two individuals A and B. If they work for themselves and A catches 30 fish and B catches 25 fish, A for their relationship with the activity of fishing is rewarded with 30 fish and B is rewarded with 25 fish. However, when both A and B are employed by C, relationships become more complex. C has his own relationships in his mind from locations in the past. C may very well actually reward B a higher compensation than A who caught more fish. That is just the world, it is all about relationships. When C rewards B a higher compensation than A who has done more work, that means C values other things besides output because of the relationships in their mind.

Economic activity is the exploitation of information for the benefit of society. It is information exploiting information for its own purpose. It is always important to remember at he back of one’s mind that a human being is made up of the same stuff that they are exploiting for survival and to have material progress. The orange farmer picks oranges that are made up of the same stuff as they are, protons, electrons and neutrons. This is the same for every material good that is brought to market, we are information exploiting information for our gain because we can, though made up of same stuff as a watermelon, we have the mind and the ability to exploit the watermelon.

Most economic activity of a society takes place within its borders, within its boundaries. Within these boundaries all information is potentially there to be economically exploited. The exploitability depends on the knowledge that a society possesses, the knowledge base of society.  Outside the boundaries of a society the relationships towards resources and potential resources are different as those materials belong to other societies.

The resources and the exploitation of these resources inside the boundaries determine the material well being of that society to a large extent. Not forgetting that the members of that society are themselves a resource, the most important resource because it is the human mind that determines what information is a resource. Coal is only a resource when the human mind understands how to use it to produce something meaningful like heat. The human mind has determined that sunlight can be turned into electricity, hence solar panels, but the human mind had to identify the process first before turning it into a resource.

The materials inside the boundaries of a society belong to them, but other societies might covert them, and cross the border to take them. Borders have always existed; a society will claim an area and defend it as their ways depend on them defending these resources. How we treat our borders is what changes over time, to cross a border meant entering another societies territory and thus one had to obey the customs of that territory their language, their traditions, their worship, just don’t be insulting.

Another society coveting those resources might decide to take those resources, the only way to repel them is to have border security, this calls for arms and people permanently looking after those borders. These people who permanently look after the borders are removed from being able to participate in the economy, but their very existence ensures that the society has an economy by securing the resources of that society.

However, the well being and the ability to defend the borders are tied directly with the performance of those who participate in the exploitation of resources. This is because through their taxes they provide food and shelter for those protecting their borders as well as equipment. Food shelter and equipment cost resources, cost money. This money is provided by the civilians, that is why power flows from the people.

How then should an economy be organized such that the concept of power flows from the people is fully utilized, the borders are safe as can be and the people are enjoying the maximum benefit of their resources?

Before going any further let us understand what is truly meant by power flows from the people in this little illustration that some might have heard of. It comes from the example of catching fish. A catches 30 fish and B catches 25 fish. There is a 5% tax for the defense of the border. That means A pays 1.5 fish a day towards the defense of the border and B 1.25 fish.

For the defence of the borders if that is a top priority of a society, it would be wrong to disallow A from catching fish because B has some connections. If for any reason there is some reason that A is not allowed to fish for the sake of A, it happens everywhere, then other relationships enter considering the defense of the boundaries, other relationships over and above. It is the production of a society that determines the food, shelter and equipment for the defences of the boundaries.

A society at it’s most simple is just the people living with a common border. The obvious characteristics of both A and B is that they are both from the same society by reality of the boundaries that are there, it does not matter how these boundaries got there they are there.

That A catches more fish with an equal percentage levy, a fair system an equal portion this recognizes it is not just work done but effort. The effort may be the same, but the work done is not the same. A percentage acknowledges it is a random event and all have to it. A proportion could be replaced by you must all pay 1 fish as tax, what about the fishermen who caches only 3 fish. This can never be fair, that is why a percentage is used, a percentage takes into account both the ideas of work done and effort.

In a period when they are both out in the ocean, river, or lake where they get these fish, they would almost relatively spent the same amount of calories fishing, that is the effort, calories is an attempt to measure energy for our consumption. . Same amount almost relatively because we must include things like body size, metabolism, a lot of stuff, but when one gets the idea the effort is similar, they must understand the effort must be rewarded, not everything can be taken. What if somebody only catches one fish. They are just not good at fishing, but they have put in as much effort as B who catches 25 fish. That fisherman who only catches one fish will need energy tomorrow to catch fish, that is why a percentage is taken to reward effort.

Work is rewarded by the more fish one catches and the amount they keep. Work and effort are two different concepts. Effort is trying, work is having the task done. A scientist can have all the right equipment, all the funding, but adding new principles to science is a random event. That scientist in the fanciest of laboratories might discover nothing, but that fancy laboratory increases their chances of finding a scientific principle. Another scientist might have nothing, no fancy laboratory, no fancy grants from fancy institutions, relies on second-hand data and discover principles, though their chances are far much lower than the scientist who has a laboratory.

The question that must be asked by society is how come a scientist with no laboratory and no funding discovered a principle of science, yet a scientist with access to the best laboratories and best funding found nothing. Why is A who catches 30 fish being blocked by society for B who catches 25 fish. There can be many reasons for this but is it just for society.

Obviously if A is blocked for B society will have to increase its efforts to replace the work of A. But the reasons for blocking A or even the worst fisherman unless he has a different choice that will feed them better. Themselves feeding themselves better means more for the protection of the borders that determine physical limits of direct influence of that society.

The society for its very existence should prefer greater work for effort ratio. That means more effort becomes work done meaning more for the defences of the border for the same percentage in taxes levied. Understanding that every relationship is a random event, and the borders must be protected for the very survival of society, who does what in society must accommodate this principle. It can’t be committees formal or informal, because how can they be so sure of fully comprehending the randomness of an event. This must be decided by the society.

When one says something is a principle of information, like the reality that everything is in a relationship and all relationships are random, a culture then can’t say our ways do not align themselves with that reality because they are our ways, that leads to a lower work effort ratio. A principle has no culture, it is just the way things are. It is not just a society that is affected by randomness, it is all societies, all particles, all stars, all planets, everything is affected by the reality of randomness.

The idea of who is favored in society by the removal of realities of randomness in their laws tells one who is favored and who is not favored in that society. It shows in that society who is more of a citizen than who. All this we can see by who is favored by laws that increase their probability of food on the table over others.

The idea of the two fishermen A and B has to apply to every sector of society involved with economic production, ensuring a work over effort ratio that is strong enough to look after society and protect it from extermination or slavery. A slave of course being the noncitizen with no rights, none of their work belongs to them, it is 100% taxed, everything just gifts from the master, they have the least probability of food on the table. Randomness has been twisted to such an extent that the laws decree 100% the slave has no right to participate in any economic activity, in any sector for themselves.

Accepting that everything is random to one extent or another the society will be taking care of the immediate problems and the future problems maximising work effort relationships. The immediate problem is to make sure there are enough taxes as possible to look after the boundaries of society. The future problem is being taken care of because when we allow randomness to take full effect there will always be an attempt to increase the knowledge base thus taking care of the future. Taking of the future resulting in better material goods available with more refined knowledge put into them, and thus the possibility of better weapons to defend society from annihilation.

The question a society must ask itself, what needs to be dropped from their culture to make it comply with the reality that everything is in a relationship and all events are random, all relationships are random. To comply with this at the very least in ensuring that there is enough being produced such that society is not handicapped in providing food, shelter, and weapons to those defending the borders. Understanding principles behind the work effort ratio understanding things are random we get better ratio and thus better utilization of the resources of society. Human beings are resources of that society, how should this resource be treated.

Is a human being in a society free to follow the principles of randomness according to the relationships that have made them who they are at that moment, to go and get food and shelter for themselves and their families. If they are not free who should control them. This is how myths of light and dark start. Note both the light and the dark are after control of the human being. They talk of separation of the humans until all humans fall under that religion, only then can there be peace, that is a recipe for war right there.  Why can’t the human being be in control of itself and make the choice. Of course both light and darkness have emissaries in human form who have first choice to the food, or they did when they held sway over the destinies of human beings, in some societies theologians still have a lot of power and have first choice to the best food available.

Note that both dark and light in the scriptures appeal to the ego of a group, the specialness of that group over other groups. Everything is in a relationship and all relationships are random merely looks at the human being, the scientific qualities of a human being. It’s can’t deal with how changing a religion makes one superior that very moment.

Randomness for those who accept it always leaves the door open for challenges, it accepts it is dangerous to canonize knowledge, one never knows where the next piece of knowledge is coming from. The computer programmer might have the best equipment but one with the cheapest might create better programs if they apply themselves. People contribute most to society when a societies culture accepts reality that everything is random, increasing the work effort ratio understanding these basic principles around food and the defence of society.

Not accepting that everything is random not only means less than otherwise could be for defence, but it creates resentment in society. People often know when they are being cheated even if they can not do anything about it.
