So, an individual in Australia purchases a widget on Amazon, which is
manufactured in Ohio and shipped internationally in California. The Australian
bloke (can I say bloke here? is that okay?) spends their cash which is then
taken by the American government. Then, the widget is produced in Ohio and
shipped to a warehouse somewhere before being sent to California where it will
be brought on a boat to Australia. This trip involves three stops, Ohio,
California, and Australia. However, as the product was bought on Amazon, which
is a service, there is another entity in the arrangement which is the state in
which Amazon is located - let's say it's in California as well. So, Ohio is
compensated for the production and storage, California is compensated for the
Amazon facilities and the shipment abroad, and Australia is given a widget in
exchange for dollars (which are then disposed of, as they are not a true
currency once internal but rather a form of debt that are sent abroad, to be
redeemed at a later date.

Now, another example. Should Washington or Maine desire one day to become part
of Canada, for example, they must necessarily seek exclusion from the United
States market. They would bring with them only what they carry, and that's...
not ideal, as most of the wealth of a nation is in it's interactions with
others. But say they do not desire exclusion, and rather would instead prefer
to simply trade with Vancouver or Quebec. External trade must be facilitated
through a higher level, in this case the national level. Washington might
request a certain type of good from Vancouver, and Maine might desire a
service from Quebec. This request would be given to the national
representative (or rather, the tier higher than the state) who would then
develop a contract with the nation of Canada to purchase the type of good or
service they desire. Assuming the canadians are still utilizing the capitalist
mode of production and economics, there would need to be an exchange between
American dollars and Canadian dollars. This is handled nationally, and those
dollars can be circulated across the globe by canada should they desire. For
example, the American dollars passed to Canada might be spent in Brazil, where
they then find their way to England, and then to Australia. Then, several
months later, those same American dollars are used to purchase a good or
service from an American industry by creating a contract with the American
government. Such a contract could be on the individual level or higher level,
however as capitalism tends to decay all social fabrics that bind a group of
people together leaving the naked individual alone, it tends to be on the
individual level.

I love petting dogs on walks! Unless their owner seems to be in a hurry, which
they often do if they aren't outside to enjoy the scenery, but rather to get
through the next part.
people walking up to a dog owner and asking to pet their dog is part of the
scenery. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you might miss it.
(but often, I'm on my way somewhere else, which is a blessed opportunity that
you can only get if you live on the opposite end from your destination of a
trail.)
We should have trails in ALL DIRECTIONS from ALL PLACES to ALL PLACES.
Otherwise, you won't see people and connect to them face-to-face. All you see
is a front-bumper, the sparkling of a reflection off the light as it's casting
a beam from the other direction (where the car it's reflecting off of is) ah
yes the "car" that it's reflecting - that person yeah them right there! You'll

oh turns out it wasn't memory corruption as I had thought, I just got

============================
I think the bottom line is, you need a better reason for [unintelligbile] than
profits. that's greed.
(was it dangerous? show me.)
if the answer is "I don't make the rules" then you need to talk to someone who
does. or, better yet, someone [else/who does] needs to listen to what you say.
[by profits, she means healthcare - you can tell because it says "bile" and
that's something that healthy people aren't all that accompanied with]
^^^ see this is usually how it comes out. it's hard to translate it into more
relevant things but when I write narratives or long-form explanation
discussions (being taught in schools) transmissions I tend to [--- stack
overflow---]
^^^ see this is why I try to talk about more germane things. like costco and
rent-a-bucket. usually it ends up being "hey who would have thought, storing
all your stuff in a warehouse and selling your own factories's stuff in one
warehouse unlocks unlimited life-sale potential. "no price-tag? sorry, it's
not for sale. here I'll help you put it back." btw costco should sort their
lines like the airport before security instead of a series of distributed
queues. This way people wait in line while going through the last few aisles,
like the [thing that I'm describing -> so anyways as I was saying] oh yeah
uh there's a lot of empty space at the front of the lines in costco you know
how in grocery stores people have that empty space to walk through right after
that and before the cashier there's a series of stands that contain the same
merchandise. that way, if you pass through there, which any customer will,
you'll pass by the stuff that's small, numerous, and otherwise easily stored
in more standardized locations.
[I can be utilized to vast potential in any industry, let me at 'em] 🙂
oh um, sorry where was I? I think we were talking about god or some such.
=========================
and then I came back, remembered the syncing of timing, and realized this: you
could have stalls all the way along where the lines were. if you had half as
many cashiers, the lines could be half as long. this way you can shop while
you wait. this might enable shoppers to plan for things they know they have,
if they spend more time in the consideration. A healthier pantry closet, a
healthier home.
the cold aisles should always be optional.

"oh but what if one artist has 1500 works and another has 15"
first of all, damn, good job. That's a lot of work.
second of all, what you should be doing is making a simple thing called a
STRUCT that stores DATA about each artist which lets you make decisions about
how to distribute dollars. The artist with 15 pieces simply has fewer data
points than the artist with 1500, but they are no less deserving of
compensation for their work when the AI generates something in their style, or
using their style as an inspiration.
"oh but just because a piece is similar to another piece doesn't mean the
first piece used the second piece as inspiration"
I don't care. It's not meant to be a perfect solution. I'm sure there's
problems with it, just like there are problems with anything that I, or anyone
else, has ever suggested at any point in time while living on this earth or
