G*****9 发帖数: 3225 | 1 I talked a lot about the US economy and civil engineering. I just found that
similar but much deeper and broader thoughts are available on line:

Here is my interpretation: a man stops planting and hunting for food, but
turns to fatty food traded with his future wealth. As a result, his
strengths, muscles and bones degrade. If the situations keeps going, he
cannot do planting and hunting and create any wealth. Then, how can he
purchase the fatty food?
Science, engineering and innovation build the muscles and the skills for
self-sustaining. Modern financing sells the future for fatty food. The man
prefers to the way of living that brings him food faster (or in MBA's term,
profit maximization). As a result, this idiot addicts to the latter way. For
a nation, the corresponding economy mode is called FIRE, economy fueled
with Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate. The counterpart corresponding to
the first way of living is called productive economy.
Then, why civil engineering lacks money? Well, from asset management point
of view, this piece of asset contributes least in adding values. It is like
the bone of the human; if not broken, who cares about it? Moreover, from the
perspective of capital, engineers and scientists are the laziest and they
deserve the low pay and long work hours, since they creat money too slowly.
Sure, I agree. No scientists and engineers create values faster than a money
printer. No productive economy is better than FIRE. According to Marx, this
is the ultimate stage of capitalism. Hey, folks, did you send application
to the PARTY? |
