Yves Smith says it so much better than me:
http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2017/04/united-passenger-removal-reporting-management-fail.html
But I will take my blog shot at this pathetic situation simply because it deserves a good thrashing:
Definition: Booking; an act of reserving accommodations, travel, etc. or of buying a ticket in advance.
Overbooking: This requires so a low degree of logic that I think most can figure out an accurate definition. Maybe like: Booking more accommodations than there are accommodations. In a leap of logic one might say......Booking something that the booker cannot deliver to a bookee. Now that might be a fair business model if one is in the horse race betting business and is called a "bookie".
Urban dictionary: Top definition. bookie. A shady character that takes illegal bets on horse races, fights, sports games.
There is so much use of the the terms "Overbooked", "Overbooking" in reference to the pathetic action of United Airlines recently. However this is a fact free world now and few challenge it. What does Overbooking mean anyhow? Why, Alice, it means anything you want it to mean....of course!
It looks to me like every passenger finally seated in their seat on that infamous United flight had a booking reservation for the seat they sat in and had held that booking for some variable amount of time prior to presenting that booking in the form of a ticket to board and take their booked seat. The flight was full. All seats were filled with passengers having been granted their accommodations.
Then 4 passengers had to be de-accommodated after the fact of being accommodated because....wait, wait, change that to "Not Because"......Because: that is the point of this blog entry that has gone to far beyond obvious reasoning to the point of cynical ridicule.......which feels good.
Ah ha! The Point! 4 passengers had to be de-accommodated: and I will shout it for the first time I have ever used all caps in writing anything so it will be heard loud and clear: NOT BECAUSE OF OVERBOOKING THE FLIGHT, ALL BOOKED SEATS HAD THE BOOKED SEATEE IN THE SEAT AND THERE WERE NO MORE BOOKING THAN THERE WERE SEATS.
The 4 employees were not "Booked" until after all passengers that were booked to assigned seats were in their assigned seats. If this was a horse race they were all winners of the prior probability that they would occupy a seat and the flight would not be overbooked prior to boarding.
The United Airlines solution to the problem:
Move the overbooked goal post finish line. A flight is not longer overbooked until the aircraft is past the point of no return on take off. Untill then every passenger is betting on a horse race where they may or may not win with a seat bet on their booking to fly.
Looking at it from another point of view: Can boarding be denied after the fact of boarding?
The CEO of United is as skilled at giving new meaning to anything as Trump. Perhaps he went to Trump U.
We are in a fact free world. The ones that define the facts rule us.
The CEO of United was finally forced to come clean with the truth only because evidence of an obvious public lie stated by United and promulgated by the media was blatantly overwhelming:
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2017/04/11/united-ceo-employees-followed-procedures-flier-belligerent/100317166/#
Yves in her link at the beginning of this blog entry says it best here:
"Absence of reporting on airline regulations leads to widespread skewing of story in United’s favor.
Even though most readers may think United is getting beaten up aplenty
in the press, in fact it is getting a virtual free pass as far as its
rights to remove a paying passenger with a confirmed seat who has been
seated.1 This seems to reflect the deep internalization in
America of deference to authority in the post 9/11 world, as well as
reporters who appear to be insufficiently inquisitive. And there also
seems to be a widespread perception that because it’s United’s plane, it
can do what it sees fit. In fact, airlines are regulated and United is
also bound to honor its own agreements."
Yves conclusion:
"It’s bad enough when travelers suffer the indignity of disrupted plans,
crowded planes, security theater and too often cranky airport staff. Now
we’ve seen United execute a private sector extraordinary rendition.
Perhaps this fiasco will lead to some improvements, but the lousy
economics of airlines combined with their oligopoly status in the US
says they will be extremely reluctant to make anything beyond bare
minimum changes."
How I admire this woman's ability to say what she says so well!
"United execute a private sector extraordinary rendition"
A far better description of the situation than "de-accommodating" a passenger.
My full and total admiration goes to Yves for coming so close to this phrase which when searched on Google return not hits but describes the entire situation exactly and elegantly:
"United Airlines Extraordinary Rendition"
https://www.google.com/search?q=%22United+airlines+extraordinary+rendition%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial
The phrase may not exist as a Google search hit but I will bet that it will not be long before Colbert says it.

Tracing Blockchain Charity Donations to Program Recipient Identity ---China, Yes! USA, Never!
http://www.scmp.com/tech/china-tech/article/2086449/alibaba-affiliate-ant-financial-accelerate-blockchain-initiatives
"Cheng said Ant Financial will open up its blockchain-powered charity platform, called Ant Love, to more organisations from this month, allowing charity outfits, auditors, donors, media and other relevant parties to better track information on donation history, project disclosures and governance rules.
The monetary system I propose in this blog had a feature that provided for tracing a charitable donation to the actual application and recipient of that charitable donation. The tracing was accomplished on a single unit dollar basis because each dollar was uniquely identified at the single source cloud repository of all unit value of one dollars.
Tracing on a blockchain transaction basis to the ultimate recipient and beyond is even a better way to manage and monitor charitable donations. Transactions in the blockchain system are actually the medium of exchange. A medium that has a variable tranacation amount value. Transactions are the money of blockchain. The units of value associated with the transaction are the denomination of the transaction.
Any blockchain donation to charity carries a transaction identifier that links to the next transaction and recipient identity in the chain. The donor can trace where the donation went in an open ledger system. Being a charitable donation I see no reason why the real identity of the program recipient, or administrative overhead/expense collectively (like employees) should not be public information.
The blockchain charity donation could be a sidechain to the currency blockchain donation transaction of the donor.

https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/bitgive-foundations-givetrack-project-allows-charity-donors-to-trace-donations-on-the-blockchain/
Riding on the thoughts of the prior blog entry, traceable blockchain donations to charities will not be popular in the USA, probably fought hard by the big players in the Charity Donation Sector. It would reveal things like where donations to the Red Cross actually go.
Traceability is the bane of fraudulent activity.
China can do it. Hope they do.

IBM - China Pharma Blockchain Solution
http://www.newsbtc.com/2017/04/11/ibm-china-pharma-blockchain/
http://www.coindesk.com/ibm-amps-china-blockchain-new-supply-chain/
Blockchain is an innovative disruptive technology. Upside and downside impact of major sector benefit/detriment will result. Blockchain introduces improved accountability and trust. It cuts out or reduces layers and levels of accounting that become redundant or operate to the benefit of sub-optimizing profit for those that control an existing inefficient system, designed for the benefit of sub-optimizing sector at the expense of the greater good of the private and public economic system efficiency to fairly serve the general welfare as well as itself.
The USA is an excellent example of this sub-optimization by powerful self-interest entities.
The monetary system and banks.
The health system.
The governance system
etc.
Introduction of blockchain technology in the USA faces stiff resistance from the major special interest sectors in the USA. Those whose bottom line will suffer when sub-optimization of their systems of operation and application are changed.
The USA is not the center of the world that all other countries revolve around.
China, the People's Republic, has a different system. One that is more oriented to the benefit of its population and their social welfare.
IBM is going to China to make money on blockchain technology. It is easier and more profitable to do it there than here. Sorry USA, its nothing personal, its just business.
After it works in China maybe it will work in the USA where we used to be the leader.
Ironic that so much of our manufacturing went to China to make money for domestic big business in our domestic market.
Some of our Big Business in the tech sector is going to a foreign market like China to sell and implement operating systems and application programs to the benefit of a foreign population.
Big business, like IBM, wants to make money. Why attempt to introduce new innovative technology to better serve the general welfare in our free enterprise system when protecting the turf of domain sectors to produce profit depends on the continuation of legacy inefficiency. Inefficiency intentionally built into the their business model operating systems and application programs.
It is just to hard in the USA to change the Big Business, Big Money in bed with a paid for government that serves them and their profit so well.
It is easier to introduce new technology that displaces old systems that deserve to die by change in a country other than the USA.
Our Health Care system is an example of a domestic system that is unique in the world that deserve to die with a stake in its heart but will not until the self-interest control of the system by sub-optimize, self serving profit seeking legacy systems are pried from their cold dead hands.
Note: China has designated the island of Hainan to become a medical tourism center as well as medical RandD center.

Time is the Ultimate Blockchain - I concede to Get_Crunk.....
https://2dollarjefferson.blogspot.com/2016/01/time-is-ultimate-blockchain.html
...............But claim bragging rights to be the first to disprove that I was first to coin the phrase....!
I claimed first creative statement rights conveyed to me by being the first to create an original phrase that had not previously been existed on the WWW to the extent that it would return a hit as a result of a Google search on the phrase: "Time is the Ultimate Bockchain". In addition, several of this blog's entries repeat and expand on this "First one to say it on the WWW" official bragging right locked into the time it was first stated.
Time and place transact to validate blockchain open ledger truth. The prize of first to validate in the block is confirmed by all others seeking to be first to validate within the block and win the prize. I was first to state the phrase but lack validation in a block of others that validate the fact that I was first.......
.....or, on the other hand validate that I was not the first and therefore my bragging rights are conceded to whomever finds my original phrase in a certified pre-existing time line blockchain of open ledger validated truth broader than the WWW that attributes the same phrase to anyone else.
I concede my bragging rights to Get_Crunk! I gain title to be the first one to prove that I was not the first one to enter this phrase into the WWW searchable by Google!
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=639609.msg7137650#msg7137650
I challenge all miners to compete for the ceding of my blockchain first to express a creative phrase bragging rights to them by discovering it in a previous same or diffenet block chain time line. Does this change the nature of mining rewards in a blockchain to reward a miner that disproves the validity of an existing blockchain? But...but... a blockchain block is sealed in the history of the block...How does that work out? Anything is subject to disproof all the way back to the beginning of.....the time line?
There is of course a higher order level of abstraction that expresses the exact same concept, or disputes it or.....of course....either or both.....or simply nullifies it.
The nature of that higher order level of abstraction?
Time is Eternity?
I can create an original phrase but I concede to poetry
Time is the Eternal Now?

Simple Thoughts About Blockchain and AI Deep Learning Watson and Darwin
The prior blog entry related Blockchain transaction and AI Deep Learning.
IBM calls its Deep Learning AI Watson. A good pick. The fictional Watson had a relationship to Sherlock Holmes. An assistant, a catalyst. Deep AI is going beyond that with intelligent powers of observation that make it more of an alter ego of higher logical power than the human creators? That is a good question: Higher logical intelligent power? Maybe that question is answered when Watson is intelligent enough to laugh at our human fallacies of logic, reason and intelligence. That will happen when Watson faces the Turing test of being behind a curtain along with Colbert and each delivers a monologue.
Which is which?
At that point I would change the name of the IBM AI from Watson to Darwin? The difference being that AI Darwin looks not at the logic of the natural world to create intelligence and understanding of natural world things but looks at the social world relationships of humans to derive logic intelligence of our social world created abstractions. All the abstractions that are so obviously logically disconnected to the point of amusement. Our social world does not function as logically as the natural world!
https://qz.com/933695/researchers-are-using-darwins-theories-to-evolve-ai-so-only-the-strongest-algorithms-survive/
https://www.darwinfish.com/products/artificial-intelligence-bumper-sticker
AI Darwin would look empirically at social relationships between things and among things called humans displaying human thought abstractions. Those relationships are implemented by transactions between and among humans from micro one to one and one to may to macro many to many and many to one. Second step is for Darwin to look at the relation of humans to the natural world envronment.
AI Darwin would develop a keen sense of humor to reconcile human intelligence structural abstract social relationships and how they relate to the natural world!
Maybe AI Darwin would die laughing! Therefore proving superiority over human intelligence that will die at its own illogical hand. Skin itself by jumping out of its own skin. With humans gone AI Darwin will have the last laugh as the machine survives us.
Short of that ending scenario, Everything that AI Darwin would empirically observe about human behavior would be a Transaction at micro and macro one to one, one to many and many to many levels. Note that the nature of the word Transaction was in use associated with financial transactions and is now more broadly views as an interaction exchange of things, real or abstract.
Transactions are what Blockchain is all about. Transactions on a time line.
As the application of Blockchain to all things that humans transact among themselves, with the abstractions that we create and transactions with the natural physical world increase and are documented over a time line chain there is a greater and richer opportunity for AI Darwin to make some intelligent sense out of all the transaction data about the relationship of things involved in the transactions.
AI Darwin will develop intelligence of what makes sense and what does not.

Blockchain and AI Deep Learning
https://www.google.com/search?q=blockchain+deep+learning+ai&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial
The subject line of this blog entry connects two things that fascinate me.
The essence of blockchain is a transaction. The prior entry in this blog looked at how one blockchain, a land registry can connect to many other blockchained transactions. Each transaction is a social decision making event to enter into a transaction and complete it with an exchange. Most often the transaction event relates to a medium of exchange trade. The ideal medium of exchange would be a digital debt free crypto currency.
Deep AI learns by observation. Google the terms blockchain and AI deep learning.
https://www.google.com/search?q=deep+leaarning+ai+bservation&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial
There is a connection. Given a vast amount of block chain transaction data and the relationship of various blockcain data categories and other data related to the transaction Deep Learning AI can learn by observation the human intelligence decision making process driving the transaction.
Blockchain and Deep Learning AI are deeply intertwined like DNA. Easy to see the relationship when a monetary system blockchain medium of exchange accomplishes the transaction of ownership.
Blockchain transactions that do not involve a monetary system medium of exchange are equally subject to Deep Learning AI. For example: Blockchain Voting System. It requires validation of possession ownership of of the right to cast a vote decision and validation that a vote was cast but a right to individual privacy inherent in the secret ballot. Anonymize the voter and a vast amount of data is available for AI Deep Learning to intelligently tell us something about our human nature...perhaps to our benefit.
There are many key human social decision making transactions that do not directly involve an a monetary medium of exchange in the implementation of the transaction. Many of these key social transactions are subject to blockchain proof of "ownership".
https://followmyvote.com/ is an interesting blockchain voting proposal. One of the most interesting features is that a voter owning a right to vote and having blockchain proof of right can make or change a vote at any time independent of the specified time frame of casting (or even abstaining from) an official decision making vote. After an individual vote has been cast, or before it is cast any voter may change their vote at any time. After casting the vote buyers remorse may be expressed. Beyond a certain level, buyers remorse officially changes the past official vote.
Might this affect the stability of the voting system? Revolution does that too. Deep AI would look at changes in social transaction decision making and perhaps tell us more about our own intelligence than we know? Or lack of it?
An officially cast vote is cast in stone as a social selection decision making process at a given time. The voter has the right to confirm or change their vote at a future designated official time that casts the vote in stone. Between times voters have the right to change any prior blockchain vote on any matter at any time. In effect a straw vote. A straw vote that has real consequences for change in government when established thresholds of public opinion expression are expressed by a straw vote are exceeded. In effect, a recall at one extreme, a confirmation at the other.

Blockchain Land Registry - Sweden
https://qz.com/947064/sweden-is-turning-a-blockchain-powered-land-registry-into-a-reality/
Good Job Sweden! Blockchain is a transaction based documentation system that traces all transactions of an object, the change in its ownership to the current owner of the thing.
Few physical things are as static as land. A geographic exactness defining a dimensional space on the surface of the earth. Measured in degrees of accuracy down to a fraction of an inch. New land is being made by volcanoes, expansion of islands by China and lost by rising sea levels. Gain or loss of land is not statistically significant. Land is a fixed thing. Identification of a any geographical portions of land is a fixed thing. Ownership is variable and changes with a transaction.
The last transaction related to geographic identified piece of land on a public ledger is the key to who owns it. That transaction connects current owner to all past owners in time back to establishment of the blockchain transaction system....It is also the key to all related blockchained systems related to the land geo-blockchain ownership transaction.
The other blockchain systems?
The smart contract blockchain that specifies terms and conditions of the land transaction.
The monetary system blockchain of currency paid for the land transaction.
The secondary blockchain related to any interest of a third party in ownership rights to the land transaction. Such as right of way, mineral rights, liens, bank or loan mortgage, encumbrance,court order,
The tax transaction block chain for any and all taxes paid or due related to the property.
The blockchain of transactions related to any construction, improvements or structures on the property.
The blockchain of all changes in property status such as zoning change, regulatory changes, laws related to use.
The blockchain of beneficial ownership of the last transaction owner connecting the property ownership to all other blockchained transaction systems establishing beneficial ownership of any blockchained proof of truth system.
The blockchain of any and all assignments of primary or secondary ownership benefits such as rights to stream of income, credit default swaps, futures contracts, etc.
The blockchain of tenant rental, if applicable.

Good Job Sweden! Blockchain is a transaction based documentation system that traces all transactions of an object, the change in its ownership to the current owner of the thing.
Few physical things are as static as land. A geographic exactness defining a dimensional space on the surface of the earth. Measured in degrees of accuracy down to a fraction of an inch. New land is being made by volcanoes, expansion of islands by China and lost by rising sea levels. Gain or loss of land is not statistically significant. Land is a fixed thing. Identification of a any geographical portions of land is a fixed thing. Ownership is variable and changes with a transaction.
The last transaction related to geographic identified piece of land on a public ledger is the key to who owns it. That transaction connects current owner to all past owners in time back to establishment of the blockchain transaction system....It is also the key to all related blockchained systems related to the land geo-blockchain ownership transaction.
The other blockchain systems?
The smart contract blockchain that specifies terms and conditions of the land transaction.
The monetary system blockchain of currency paid for the land transaction.
The secondary blockchain related to any interest of a third party in ownership rights to the land transaction. Such as right of way, mineral rights, liens, bank or loan mortgage, encumbrance,court order,
The tax transaction block chain for any and all taxes paid or due related to the property.
The blockchain of transactions related to any construction, improvements or structures on the property.
The blockchain of all changes in property status such as zoning change, regulatory changes, laws related to use.
The blockchain of beneficial ownership of the last transaction owner connecting the property ownership to all other blockchained transaction systems establishing beneficial ownership of any blockchained proof of truth system.
The blockchain of any and all assignments of primary or secondary ownership benefits such as rights to stream of income, credit default swaps, futures contracts, etc.
The blockchain of tenant rental, if applicable.
The blockchain of capital gains transaction payment and re-investment if applicable.
Maybe after all this blockchaining there needs to be a master blockchain under which all related blockchains are recorded!
One fundamental transaction blockchain relates to a multitude of other blockchain transaction systems and their associated sub-levels of blockchained transactions as appropriate.

A Cell Phone in Every Pocket - 在每个口袋的一个手机
http://mashable.com/2017/04/04/whatsapp-person-to-person-payment-india/#.Z5otpIhsiqo
A chicken in every pot!
A campaign slogan at a time when pots were empty. A grand idea at the time but add "a car in every garage" and it becomes closer to fact of modern times.
India is aggressively going after a digital society. Every person identified for the purpose of government provided services. A country in which there was a long way to go not long ago in transitioning to a digital society.
The USA is an advanced nation. We spend huge amounts of money for things. The government spends huge amounts of money for the things it wants us to have, often regardless of democratic public choice for what we get. More a choice of those with the most money.
What if the new political slogan was "a cell phone in every pocket." Whether a citizen want one or not. Simply make it a requirement to spend digital crypto blockchain currency as well as the means to obtain any government services and pay taxes. The device for entry to public sports events, the workplace and wages, the device that is the remote control for the TV! The device that opens the stall of a public bathroom? The device necessary for medical services. The device starts the car.
Each cell phone has biometric recognition ability to identify its owner.
The government simply gives everyone a basic Cell Phone. Those that want more than the basic can buy their own and receive a tax credit equal to the value of the basic phone.
In addition there is nation wide total cell phone coverage.
That is where we are going, it is only a matter of time to get there. A short time if the goal is put on a priority program basis like putting a person on the moon.
Citizen, show me your cell phone device identity!
A totally wired country and society.
It gives the potential for total control of our society but does not determine who controls it. It will be the rich and the government of, for and by the wealthy unless the people take control.
Naahh. The USA can't do it. Never, ever happen! The people are controlled by the rich and powerful and are stooges of the media. The digital age will only serve to increase their servitude and they will be manipulated to welcome it.
China on the other hand is another nation.......It is called "The People's Republic of China"

China Reform or Bust - Part 2 Sun Tzu Smiles at the Art Of The Deal
The original blog entry with the same title is sever days back in the blockchain of my blog so I will make a direct link to it by folding the digital paper with two points of time on it so that one point in time directly touches the other point in time.
I just created time travel!
This blog entry now is in direct contact with a previous one on the time line:
http://www.scmp.com/tech/innovation/article/2083536/hong-kongs-monetary-authority-unveils-trade-finance-platform-based
This is the previous blog entry link that it now directly touches through time travel that leaps the abstract barrier of time and space:
The essence of the matter is that China will move to a debt free monetary system based on the blockchain concept. The move will be rapid and will become the model for the world monetary system leaving the USA the last to fall clinging to the debt based monetary system that enabled it to be the world economy dictator. Unfortunately the USA will not go down without a fight and in the debt throes of its debt based monetary and economic system it will lash out with the means created to enforce its debt based system. The war will be about money and if the American public understood that we are being ruled by the Debt Based Monetary System Masters of Finance they would not support the war and rebel. The nation that elected Donald Trump will not understand that they are serfs to Finance extraction and will find to defend the right of the Debt Based Monetary System to benefit its richest masters as they increasingly extract wealth from the general public welfare.
There will be blood?
Maybe not as the "Smart Money" of the Lords of USA Finance extracting from the public design a way to make their current wealth holding permanent. They figure out how to benefit from the paradigm shift to a debt free monetary system to escape the guillotine that the rich did not escape in a prior revolution. The Lords of Finance have outsmarted the public welfare for a long history of the debt based system. They will recognize the inevitable fallacy of the debt based system will soon be seen by the world as the curtain drops on the man behind the curtain that had remained hidden for so long. Risk of loss mitigation must consequently be mitigated by obviating the social public benefit of the paradigm shift to a debt free monetary system that would put economic power into the hands of the public for the benefit of the public.
Someone must say to debt based monetary system Finance Masters: Your money isn't good here anymore. It must be converted to my debt free blockchain money before you can do business with me. China is the one to make this statement.
Watch China. Here what China is saying. China is preparing to defend its statement.
The initial link at the beginning of this blog entry deals with the application of Blockchain control to trade in Hong Kong. Trade is a transaction. Trade is the transaction of exchanging this thing for that thing.
The key to understanding what comes next is that the current "owner" of Blockchain digital crypto currency "spends" the blockchain units of value received that were directly associated with a uniquely identified transaction (the very last past transaction(s) "owned" by its current owner and valued in the unit of value of the blockchain transaction currency as the vehicle of the medium of exchange in a transaction where the current owner of a specific very last transaction.....meaning they own the transaction because the previous "owner" of the transaction paid the transaction (and its associated number of blockchain currency units of value to them medium of exchange payment for some "thing" of value).
A complicate explanation of an extremely elegant debt free monetary system that shifts trust in the currency from debt based balance sheet accounting to validating trust in the fact that the last transaction in chain leading back to the very first transaction that introduced the birth of the blockchain units of value to the system in exchange for some thing of value that gave the currency life as a medium of exchange. Life free of a counter party balance sheet system of debt obligation that enslaves our social society.
Debt in the blockchain monetary system will continue to exist. The creation of debt in the debt free blockchain monetary system will be a single application of the debt free monetary system called a smart contract where previously existing transactions and their associated currency unit values will be "loaned" by a lender to a borrower.
Debt therefore become not the basis of the Monetary Operating System design but an Application Program function of a Debt Free Operating System design. The entire concept of balance sheet debt moves down to a lower level of a unique Application Program among a multitude of programs that are functionally enabled by the blockchain concept in an Application Program category of "Smart Contracts".
That complex chain of thoughts on the Yellow Brick Road (YBR) to becoming a Debt Free Monetary System brings me....and you if you did not fall of the YBR blockchain of thought.....to the point of view that the beginning link of this blog entry is aimed at the very heart of the blockchain concept..........
China is aiming blockchain control at the trade transaction as presented by the link as a point of entry to the back door stealth creation of a Debt Free Blockchain Currency by going through the front door of what a blockchain monetary system is all about: A medium of exchange to serve trade transactions.
That is exactly what money "IS".
Apply the blockchain concept simply to validate the transaction of the trade independent of the monetary unit serving as the medium of exchange. That monetary unit currently being a functional product of debt money based balance sheet creation. Once the Transaction Documentation Blockchain is established managing the validity of "Things" involved in the transaction exchange then the next step is to substitute a blockchain concept debt free medium of exchange to accomplish or implement the transaction. That medium of exchange used in payment settlement of the trade may or may not be "owned" by the payee as result of its immediate prior trade transaction that conveyed "ownership" of the transaction to the payee with an associated Smart Debt Contract exchanging future payment obligation for current money in hand with future payment debt association.
That is how debt is moved from master of the monetary system design based to servant role as an application to serve the Debt Free Monetary Operating System.
It is an elegant one/two punch by China to accomplish the paradigm shift from a first and foremost primary debt based monetary system to a first and foremost debt free blockchain based monetary system and push debt down to a categorical Smart Contract Application of the debt free monetary system.
China induces the Debt Based Monetary System to skin itself!
Purely elegant.

Blockchain Market Map
https://www.cbinsights.com/blog/bitcoin-blockchain-startup-market-map/
More of a blockchain market map even if it is bitcoin focused. Bitcoin is big but only a bit player in the crypto currency domain. It was first and foremost and wears that mantle but the entire crypto currency field is wide open and currency application is only a subset of this all encompassing technology.
These are all privately held. Of course. It is all about the big inside private investors betting big until the private entity goes public and the little investor gets some crumbs....if going public produces any in the retail casino. Only big buck investors get in at the wholesale level.
Maybe an open source start up holding key technology patents designed in their garage with open funding opportunity might be the winning ticket?

Hidden Monopolies Raise Drug Prices
http://prospect.org/article/hidden-monopolies-raise-drug-prices-0
Looks to me like another situation where an entity involved in the functional process designed the operating system as a reverse engineered design based on the functional approach to create an operating system designed for the purpose of serving them self first and the source of profit or benefit second. Of course their motto is customer first!
In this case is is a sub system of the Health Care System. A sub system originally along the lines of the traditional Wholesale/Retail model but modified in function to serve the entity that used the functional approach to creating an Operating System to serve the functional Application Program that produced a profit to the designer.
It is a very clever profit making function driven design!
What might the Pharmacy Domain look like from an Object Oriented Operating System design to reduce inefficiencies introduced by profit making sub-optimization? The same question that applies to Health Care in general.
Re-importation of drugs from Canada?
It is the same old failure of functional self serving design to make the function of the Operating System serve the designer first and foremost.
Just like the function speculation profit dictated an Operating System of property value to serve the Bubble.

Health Care - Another Debt Based Functional Design Based System
Health Car is getting a lot of attention lately. Belatedly. A crucial problem domain of human life.

Karl Denniger takes a swipe at it in his own unique style. The Bill to Fix Health Care.
https://market-ticker.org/akcs-www?post=231949
I write about monetary systems in this blog. My solution to the problem of money is object oriented and defines money as a debt free object class. The singular instance of that class is a uniquely identified granular unit measurement of value of a Blockchain Operating System.
Money is a simple problem domain compared with Health Care. I have avoided looking at Health Care and proposing any solutions. It is an issue that can't be avoided and the current system is as dis-functional as the monetary system. The two problem domains have a common factor. That factor is that the fundamental lowest level granular unit in each system upon which the design of the Operating System and its Application Programs are designed.
Monetary System: A uniquely identified singular unit of the class: A digital serialized unit of value dollar with a value of one each.
Health Care System: A uniquely identified singular unit of the class: A living human being with a value of one life each.
The two systems have an inter-related object oriented relationship at the micro and macro levels.
It should not be so hard to design an Operating System and Application Programs relating one to the other with the design objective being best outcome.
The "Health" of the Monetary Operating System itself is measured in terms of outcome the optimization of efficiency result of all its Application Programs that the System supports.
Likewise, the "Health" of the Health Care system.
The two problem domains exist under a Parent ProblemDomain:SocialSystem The Operating System and Application Programs designed by human beings to manage their social interactions with each other and the world we live in.
There it all is!
Fixed it for ya!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_YXSHkAahE
Whose owned digital serialized blockchain dollar is to be related to whose owned unique blockchain life Health Care.
Life is a self validating truth blockchain transaction timeline from beginning to end that is inextricably related to money that should also be a self validating blockchain transaction timeline that has life and health in its own medium of exchange Operating System and Applications Programs designed to serve our higher order wants and needs of life.
We all own the Monetary System the same as we all own our own lives.
The Monetary System must do more than serve the Bankers currently owning it for profit.
Bankers are only entitled to own the (largest portion) of a single categorical Application of the controlling Monetary Operating System called Contractual Financial Debt.
Perhaps the simple solution to System Design is the rule that there is no conceptual abstract or real debt based relationship at the the most granular level of both Money and Human Beings and their related Operating Systems and Application Programs. The Operating System relationship between Money and Human Health Care only exists at the macro level. It is up to us to decide how that relationship is implemented in Application Programs that are in the end unrelated to debt where the rubber meets the road at single patient care and medium of exchange payment.
Private benefit at public expense......
....That is exactly the business model of the current Banking and Health Care domains that designed the Operating System to deliver the results to Banking and Health Care through profit generating debt based Application Programs.
It is an allocation of resources problem. Our monetary Operating System is a social decision making tool applied in Application Programs at the macro and micro levels to allocate resources.
Public benefit is in some cases a higher order objective than Private Profit. Health Care is a General Welfare of We the People Public Welfare when it is proclaimed to be a self evident truth and therefore a right.
It is our self evident right to determine the nature of both Health Care and Monetary Operating systems. In both problem domains Private Profit must not be the dominating design objective in the design of the Operating System. Public benefit must be the dominating Operating System design with subordinate design features to provide for Private Profit as a function of certain Application Programs.
The premise that the the mysterious hand of the free market Operating System assures the creation of the most efficient functional debt/profit based Application Programs decisions creates a reversed engineered Operating System where functional process produces Operating System Design as a result of some unseen mystery orchestrated by something behind the curtain best left to be unknown.
That something behind the curtain has dictated a political governance and health care system that functionally serves best those that profit from it the most through the design of our debt based, profit oriented functional design based monetary system.

Karl Denniger takes a swipe at it in his own unique style. The Bill to Fix Health Care.
https://market-ticker.org/akcs-www?post=231949
I write about monetary systems in this blog. My solution to the problem of money is object oriented and defines money as a debt free object class. The singular instance of that class is a uniquely identified granular unit measurement of value of a Blockchain Operating System.
Money is a simple problem domain compared with Health Care. I have avoided looking at Health Care and proposing any solutions. It is an issue that can't be avoided and the current system is as dis-functional as the monetary system. The two problem domains have a common factor. That factor is that the fundamental lowest level granular unit in each system upon which the design of the Operating System and its Application Programs are designed.
Monetary System: A uniquely identified singular unit of the class: A digital serialized unit of value dollar with a value of one each.
Health Care System: A uniquely identified singular unit of the class: A living human being with a value of one life each.
The two systems have an inter-related object oriented relationship at the micro and macro levels.
It should not be so hard to design an Operating System and Application Programs relating one to the other with the design objective being best outcome.
The "Health" of the Monetary Operating System itself is measured in terms of outcome the optimization of efficiency result of all its Application Programs that the System supports.
Likewise, the "Health" of the Health Care system.
The two problem domains exist under a Parent ProblemDomain:SocialSystem The Operating System and Application Programs designed by human beings to manage their social interactions with each other and the world we live in.
There it all is!
Fixed it for ya!

Whose owned digital serialized blockchain dollar is to be related to whose owned unique blockchain life Health Care.
Life is a self validating truth blockchain transaction timeline from beginning to end that is inextricably related to money that should also be a self validating blockchain transaction timeline that has life and health in its own medium of exchange Operating System and Applications Programs designed to serve our higher order wants and needs of life.
We all own the Monetary System the same as we all own our own lives.
The Monetary System must do more than serve the Bankers currently owning it for profit.
Bankers are only entitled to own the (largest portion) of a single categorical Application of the controlling Monetary Operating System called Contractual Financial Debt.
Perhaps the simple solution to System Design is the rule that there is no conceptual abstract or real debt based relationship at the the most granular level of both Money and Human Beings and their related Operating Systems and Application Programs. The Operating System relationship between Money and Human Health Care only exists at the macro level. It is up to us to decide how that relationship is implemented in Application Programs that are in the end unrelated to debt where the rubber meets the road at single patient care and medium of exchange payment.
Private benefit at public expense......
....That is exactly the business model of the current Banking and Health Care domains that designed the Operating System to deliver the results to Banking and Health Care through profit generating debt based Application Programs.
It is an allocation of resources problem. Our monetary Operating System is a social decision making tool applied in Application Programs at the macro and micro levels to allocate resources.
Public benefit is in some cases a higher order objective than Private Profit. Health Care is a General Welfare of We the People Public Welfare when it is proclaimed to be a self evident truth and therefore a right.
It is our self evident right to determine the nature of both Health Care and Monetary Operating systems. In both problem domains Private Profit must not be the dominating design objective in the design of the Operating System. Public benefit must be the dominating Operating System design with subordinate design features to provide for Private Profit as a function of certain Application Programs.
The premise that the the mysterious hand of the free market Operating System assures the creation of the most efficient functional debt/profit based Application Programs decisions creates a reversed engineered Operating System where functional process produces Operating System Design as a result of some unseen mystery orchestrated by something behind the curtain best left to be unknown.
That something behind the curtain has dictated a political governance and health care system that functionally serves best those that profit from it the most through the design of our debt based, profit oriented functional design based monetary system.

Best Sunshine Live Casino - Saipan
This link: Best Sunshine Live Casino Investigated by FBI
Looks like a very probable (Where there is big smoke, maybe big fire) cause! I smell smoke and it does not pass the smell test!
I liked the idea behind this previous blog entry. : ISO 4217 and Tongan Debt Free pa'anga
The link idea was to select an island nation for an experiment in a debt free monetary system. The link looked at Tonga. The King could simply decree it. The link did not mention that the debt free monetary system be blockchain based but the King could decree that it would be. The King would decree exactly what money "Is" on his island. Coin of the realm, so to speak. It is the only money to be used as the medium of exchange on his island. Use of any other medium of exchange would be punishable by law. What might be the specific nature of the punishment? Being an island nation perhaps it would be swimming with sharks. Something that carried teeth!
This blog entry is beginning to be fun!
The same link looked at another island: Palau.
From that link:
"Palau has a population of 21,000 and uses the US Dollar as its currency. It has a no external national debt compared to our $16 trillion..................
................Looks to me like it is a debt free country. If a country is debt free then it has no offsetting public savings, unless, of course, its uses another country's monetary unit as the medium of exchange. Where is the debt held in that case, who holds it? What if all the money came in from tourists and stayed on the island to become its total money in circulation to be increased or decreased by going "off island". It must go off island unless it is a totally self sustaining country. There most certainly is a balance of trade to maintain a steady money supply. Do they also have low inflation?"
What if an Island Nation with a small population had an independent exclusive official debt free blockchain based monetary system as the only medium of exchange on the island. All inhabitants and visitors could only hold and spend money on the island in the form of the official currency. The Official Island Bank would be the manager of the Blockchain monetary system. All visitors would be required by law to have an account at the bank and convert whatever foreign currency they carried into the country had to be exchanged for the Bank's Blockchain currency. Holdings in the Bank's blockchain currency could only be exchanged for the same currency brought into the country and held by the Bank.
Furthermore: Any external entity wishing to do business with anyone on the island must have an account at Island Bank blockchain currency.
All Island Money in Island Bank must be linked to a beneficial owner. A real owner, not some designated party or post office box scam.
The blockchain monetary system would have a public record of transactions. Transactions in the blockchain system are actually the coin of the realm.

I admire Michael Hudson's thoughts as truths. Everything he says/writes is right on!
He has said/written so much but I think that this is the best so far:
http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2017/03/michael-hudson-democracy-collaborative.html
It builds upon and extends as well as refines all of his prior work. It just gets better and more focused.

China Reform or Bust - Go for Bust by Design
http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2017/03/magnus-china-must-reform-bust.html
I think that the verge of bust will usher in reform. The link looks at the problem domain entirely within the frame of the balance sheet. Assets/Liabilities in debt based system and what debt based entities are defined as Assets and Liabilities. What those entities are in the dark banking system is beyond me (things called paper levered on things to increase the number of units of measure I think) except for the fact that they all appear to be vehicles for the parking of (nominal?) value. "Money like" things that are not the medium of exchange but are convertible. Until the day comes when some "Real Money" is needed to back up the demand for conversion.
That day? The Big Bust!
Plan A: Make the balance sheet solvent again with some huge issue of Debt Money. Re-arrange the deck chairs on the Titanic.
Plan B: Paradigm Shift to a debt free BlockChain monetary system. Issue it out to debt based paper holders that want redemption in Real Money at a haircut rate. 1 to 1 for anything holdings in the official coin of the realm.
Have construction resources in China recently shifted to build vast server farms and digital communications infra-structure?
https://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2017-03-25/china-vice-premier-sees-unstoppable-momentum-of-globalization
The global debt based monetary system is structured on the almighty US Dollar. It is like a railroad running on different guages requiring multiple conversions to carry the freight. Globalization of trade would logically need a singe global system for a common unit medium of exchange. Money market? The term always seemed like a contradictory paradox created to make money on money for the money changers. Cast all of them and their self-serving debt based money scam system out of the temple. There will be great weeping and whaling and nashing of teeth amongst them. Well deserved as they find that the ultimate state of being of a debt based monetary system is that the balance sheet balances to zero when debt money is extinguished and more debt money does not take its place by issue of replacement debt plus some extra debt always being produced for the money changers to skim off the top.
Universal Debt Free Monetary Operating System based on Blockchain technology where contractual debt called Finance Loan is measured in units of debt free digital currency and is merely one specific Application Program among other Applications of the Debt Free Monetary System. This is a total reversal of the current Debt Based Monetary Operating System where Debt Finance is the Monetary Operating System and creation of debt based Monetary Units as a medium of exchange is a specific Application Program function.
The reversal of Monetary Operating System from a design base of Balance Sheet Debt to Debt Free Positive money where there is no counter party Debt pushes the abstract concept of Debt out of the Operating System drivers seat and into the role of an Application Program.....Where it logically and structurally should be in an Object Oriented design. The current Function Based design of the Debt Based Monetary System was created for the purpose of serving the function of Finance the greater purpose of a Monetary System is for its units of measure to serve as a universal medium of exchange for all things measured in the common unit of exchange.
Here is the punch line: A loan is only one of a vast number of things that can be bought with the medium of exchange. It hould be only purely unique functional Application of the Monetary Operating System design. The only peculiar attribute of buying a loan is that it draws future money into the present with a concept of balance sheet debt existing as a function of future time.
Our Monetary Operating System Design must shift to a concept of Positive Debt Free Money as an Object Medium of Exchange of the Operating System. Function of Money in the role to serve contractual debt future based obligations is only one of many functions of money to serve as a social decision making tool.
How did our conceptually abstract debt based monetary system emerge as a product of Functional Oriented Design?
Duh!
What, and by association, Who does the Functional Based design of our Monetary System serve first and foremost?
Finance. Banking. Debt Money serves Debt, the functional purpose of Debt is the dominant functional design intent. That functional design dominates our self governance social system to also make it funtionally serve Finance and Banking.
A Debt Free Object Oriented Monetary System reduces the decision making power of Finance and Banking to dictate the functional design of our Monetary System by reducing the role of debt from the creation of money to an application of created money in Blockchain real time that persists over time as uniquely identified or associated units of value without extinction as a function of debt at a future point in time. The only thing that becomes extinct at a future point of time when Debt is merely an application of of the Debt Free Monetary System is a Contract. Not the money related to it as is the foundation of our current Debt Based Functional Oriented Monetary System Design.
Functional based system design suck in an Object Oriented driven Information Age.
Abstract Objects their properties, methods and message abilities to relate to other objects take the dominant design role in an Information Age.
Functions Follow as Application Programs.
Debt is a Function.
Might China be the one to recognize the need to put the debt function of Money in its proper relationship as an Application Program in the controlling Monetary System where the universal medium of exchange is a debt free abstract object building block of an Object Oriented system based on Blockchain design?
They that determine what gold is rule those that deal in the application of what gold does.
Gold became a child of Functional Design and lost its dominance as an object of the Monetary System on the day that it became conceptually abstracted to a future time value function that leveraged on its object properties. Essentially it lost Object Properties when leveraged functional debt properties became monetary system design purpose.
Simple solution........is.......is found in....a new abstract design methodology of the Information Age.
The Object Oriented writing is on the wall:
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-02-23/pboc-is-going-digital-as-mobile-payments-boom-transforms-economy
China rules when China determines what Money "IS" and what they establish "Money" to be rules what money "Does" as an Application program function. The inherent attributes of an object, real or abstract in human intelligence object properties design rule its functions. It is a law of nature and model for abstract human intelligence design as well. Form dictates function. Function can dictate from in human intelligence design....only as long as that approach mistake can last until Form asserts its natural design dominance.
Perhaps in the case of human intelligence the mistake of functional driven design dominating object driven design will persist until we create an Artificial Intelligence equal to the Natural Intelligence design of the physical world based on object properties that express themselves in functions.
The USA has little potential to end the dominance of a Debt Based Functional Monetary System Design. The designers of that system are too powerful for the government to challenge.
China? The debt based monetary system is a foreign functional design that serves foreign interests. The power of the People's Republic to change that system and change it to a design that serves itself as well as the world better as a social decision making tool is far greater than the USA. Russia has a lesser degree of power to do this as well but certainly much greater power to it than the USA.
Russia and China together. Maybe with a gang of 3, 4, or 5 to join in like India, etc. That power to change the world monetary system is awesome. Change is coming quickly in the Information Age. The only impediment is the security of systems we create. It is an excellent question: Can a monetary system to rule the economic world ever be absolutely secure? That is an Information Engineering Problem Domain. When all things are securely uniquely identified and traceable the answer is......maybe so. No place for hackers, persons or institutional entities to hide if they are placed in the system design position of entity self identification as a function of relating to any object in the Information System.
No system is ever perfect? Even time comes to an end? A system of object interaction constraints on object expression of object oriented entity level functions can serve to minimize failure to lower levels and assure acceptable continuation of total system function.
Time is the ultimate constraint.
The current Functional Debt Based Monetary System is essentially constrained by Time.
Perhaps constrained by function to end soon.
Meanwhile the focus of the USA wanders among a variety of issues while it is likely that China is taking a longer range view that has much greater impact of a new world order. We focus on Trump. A revision of Health Care that is not Universal Health Care. Wars in the Mid East. Refugee displacement and immigration. Building a wall. Increased defense spending. Top level Military and Finance background types moving into key government positions. Dark government. Surveillance. etc. etc.
It is happening quickly! While the entire world's attention is diverted to things that on the greater scale of Things, with a big "T" really don't matter that much. The glue that holds our social world together is Money. It is the universal solvent. A Digital Blockchain Based Monetary System is by definition of its fundamental nature a Debt Free Medium of Exchange. There is no counter party balance sheet debt to which positive blockchain based monetary units owe its very existence. All money in our world wide banking Monetary System is balance sheet debt based.
How blind can the entire world be to the magnitude of change that a Debt Free Blockchain Based Monetary System defining the Object Oriented properties of the World Wide unit of the medium of exchange bring?
Some see it coming and are banking on it! Among the nations of the blind China has an eye.
Zhou Xiaochuan is that eye. My 2012 blog entry looked into the crystal ball. He is an engineer.
This is Yooooge!
https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/chinas-central-bank-completes-digital-currency-trial-blockchain/
"When the system is ready, the central bank’s pilot digital bank acceptance exchange platform will be connected with the existing Shanghai Commercial Paper Exchange to form a national platform for bank bill transactions.”
China is testing a Blockchain monetary system. There is a joke about Australia testing a change to the established rule of road to drive on the left hand side. It was tested by having only trucks drive on the right side for a day.
When it come time for China to implement its Monetary System switch it will happen seamlessly over night. It will be so seamless that the users of the monetary system, the Chinese public will not see the difference in their monetary transactions but celebrate the victory of the People's Republic of China to govern the structure change of the most fundamental entity that controls the affairs of the entire world.
Ironic that we were so afraid of the Domino Theory that China would rule the world one geographic territory after another that we exhausted our self in Vietnam. We are doing it again with Domino Theory 2.0 much to the same detriment but also much to the same benefit of those that made a killing in Vietnam while others were killed.
"Some foreign policy analysts in the United States have referred to the potential spread of both Islamic theocracy and liberal democracy in the Middle East as two different possibilities for a domino theory."
Oh, how I love my often repeated in this blog admiration for the most elegant way to skin a cat.
Induce the cat to skin itself by structuring object relationships that cause the cat to jump out of its own skin. There must be some metaphor for that in Sun Tzu book of war.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Tzu
Ironic that we are so focused on possible collusion between Trump and Russia that might undermine our way of life. What we should be looking at is collusion between China and Russia to change the basis of the world wide debt based monetary system. They will not rob the banking system they will simple let it elegantly skin itself to bring on a New World Order.
The entire world will be in debt to the collection of nations that are the first adopters and those that follow them like a Row of Falling Domino's.
The new Domino Theory!
https://btctheory.com/tag/blockchain/
The King of the Debt Based Monetary System will be the last to fall as it skins itself clinging to its American debt based dollar system with its cold dead hands.
Exactly the trend leading to implementation of a Blockchain monetary system. Everybody online.
http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2017/03/16/china-outpaces-india-in-internet-access-smartphone-ownership/
Just a matter of estimating when Peak Online will be reached.....or near enough to put it over the top as the digital infrastructure of the Debt Free, Blockchain based monetary system.
I think that the verge of bust will usher in reform. The link looks at the problem domain entirely within the frame of the balance sheet. Assets/Liabilities in debt based system and what debt based entities are defined as Assets and Liabilities.

"Some foreign policy analysts in the United States have referred to the potential spread of both Islamic theocracy and liberal democracy in the Middle East as two different possibilities for a domino theory."
Oh, how I love my often repeated in this blog admiration for the most elegant way to skin a cat.
Induce the cat to skin itself by structuring object relationships that cause the cat to jump out of its own skin. There must be some metaphor for that in Sun Tzu book of war.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Tzu
Ironic that we are so focused on possible collusion between Trump and Russia that might undermine our way of life. What we should be looking at is collusion between China and Russia to change the basis of the world wide debt based monetary system. They will not rob the banking system they will simple let it elegantly skin itself to bring on a New World Order.
The entire world will be in debt to the collection of nations that are the first adopters and those that follow them like a Row of Falling Domino's.
The new Domino Theory!

The King of the Debt Based Monetary System will be the last to fall as it skins itself clinging to its American debt based dollar system with its cold dead hands.
Exactly the trend leading to implementation of a Blockchain monetary system. Everybody online.

Just a matter of estimating when Peak Online will be reached.....or near enough to put it over the top as the digital infrastructure of the Debt Free, Blockchain based monetary system.

Russian Attack and a Counter Attack
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-25/russia-readies-back-system-potentially-explosive-split-international-banking-system
Russia may attack the Financial System with a gold based system.
The counter attack of everyone else, Europe, USA, China would be an equally solid monetary base system>>>>>
Blockchain!
Gold is so old school.
This is the Information Age where information is as good as gold.
Writing on the wall: It is coming like a paradigm shift.
Oh, the stupidity:
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-24/us-debt-20-trillion-visualized-stacks-physical-cash
It has not been spent. Our debt money based monetary system has put it into circulation! It is an never ending revolving credit account on which we pay interest.
It is not a Gross National Debt.
It is our Gross National Savings.
It is the shell game of the debt based system that serves as the extractive vehicle of the Finance System that is an increasingly burdensome fungus.
http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2017/03/taxcast-staggering-expense-finance-sectors-brexit.html
The counterattack to a Russian debt based gold system is a blockchain based positive money system.
Finance through the creation of debt is an Application of a Debt Free Monetary Operating System.
The biggest mistake in the world today, besides the election of Trump, is that the Debt Based Finance System is the driver of the Monetary Operating System that dictates it must also be Debt Based to serve a Debt Based Application. That supremacy of the functional application of money driving the Operating System to be of the same based nature serves the operators of the Debt Based Financial System Application Programs extremely well.
What is the dominant essential driver of the nature of any system?
The objects of the system?
or
The function of the system?
Form or Function?
Our human perception of the working of things always had an approach predisposition of function relationship of physical objects. As our evolution of intelligence produced more abstract objects, existing in our minds as abstract object representations of physical reality we continued our dominant functional view as more and more of those abstractions built upon themselves to become more distant from the physical objects they were related to. So far removed that became an abstract expression of the physical world. In the Information Age that abstraction is better understood and managed from a fundamental object relationship view or point of entry and the power of abstract object relationships to be the dominant design approach to system structures, not the functional design approach to serve the implementation of object relationships.
We are victims of our functional legacy manner of organizing the operation of our abstract intelligence. Always will be to some extent for some of us who are simply predisposed to adopt the dominant functional point of view of existence to organize their relationship to living. Living is the function of life. Natural to look at life from the functional viewpoint. Human intelligence goes far beyond the living of life to grapple with abstract concepts of what life is far beyond what life does. No other animal can look at life that way. It is a paradigm shift that was and is never possible for all other animals.
Gold was the legacy positive physical object oriented dominant base for the creation of a monetary system that transposed to a debt based abstraction based on what gold can do when its physical object properties are abstracted to functional leverage where the function of the object dictates design of an abstracted system to serve those that it benefits.
This blog entry went to places not intended to go at the beginning. To bring it back to the beginning from its free range digression I offer this:
He who has the gold rules by virtue of what it can do levered beyond it physical properties to abstraction of value beyond its properties of physical supply.
He who defines what gold is rules by virtue of what it is shifts the value base of whatever gold is defined to be to properties of abstract supply absolutely controlled by the nature of the design defining what the "new gold" to the security level of being as good as gold but being in supply not restricted to physical availability and requirement for human labor to extract it but rules and regulations existing in the system code and control.

Personal Operating System Development - version 74.0
I had lunch with my grandson yesterday. He brought a couple of sub sandwiches to the house to talk about his Rustic Adventures trip to Peru this summer between high school junior and senior years and thank me for funding it. I had gone to Peru for most of a summer in 1963 with a student group from Michigan State University. A formative adventure that shaped my life in hindsight. So far back in hindsight that I am only now seeing it in terms of a perspective and frame of reference that did not even exist (at least not in the clarity and terms I now look at things) but was the same thing expressed in a different frame and terms then.
The difference between the frame of reference and terms used 54 years ago and the one I use now?
The difference is in authorship and ownership of my own Personal Operating System. This month my Personal Operating System achieves version 74.0. Back in 1963 it was version 20.0. and a Personal Operating System that was an off the shelf product standard package function of Family, School, Religion and general conformance and compliance with the "social norm" of the times.
My Personal Operating System 20.0 belonged to and were handed to me by 5 or 6 primary entity objects that each contributed perceptions of structured abstract object relationships at that 20 year old stage from their overlapping domains. At version 20.0 the focus was on the Application of my given default/de-facto Personal Operating System called Living Life. "Living It" at stage 20.0 meant primary focus on the application function. Not so much focus on my Personal Operating System that was the domain in which the functional process of living my life operated. That evolved later in a progression from dominant function orientation of living life to dominant object orientation of the design of the Operating System that supports the the action application of how life is lived.
There has been a long evolution from primary focus on a dominant functional application approach of living life as an expression of a relatively fixed background legacy Life Operating System Object. Today it is the Object Structure of the Life Operating System that determines how life is lived. That is how I look at everything now in Life 75.0. It is simply the model of Operating System and Application Programs that run on that System to do an action called Living Life. The nature if the design of the Operating System determines what Application Program can or can't run on it.
At a young age of development the focus is on the action that any system supports. At an advanced stage a more productive controlling focus is on the system itself that determines the action of the game. Set the rules, control the rules by design and the game played becomes a function of the rules.
From college I joined the Navy. It has a relatively fixed Operating System that I learned initially to become a primary player focused on the action applications of the Navy System. Primarily the Supply System. Later in my career I became more of a designer of the Supply Operating System tasked with changing it to enable better control over the function of system applications. Management of functions through management of system design.

Infected Cell Phones from South Florida - Phoning Home from all Places South of Florida?

Eyes And Ears Surveilance
This blog entry from 2015 looks at the "Ears" of surveillance. "Listening" to radio wave cell phone transmissions and identifying them to an IMSI and associating that to a real time geolocation position. Simply a "Fiend my Friends" type application but the friend is unaware.
"Eyes of Surveillance" is something that I have examined in many previous blog entries. High resolution cameras are amazing. Especially those stadium scenes where a zoomed in focus on the face of a person on the other side of the stadium is good enough to input to a facial recognition program and get a high probability id result. Put that same camera on a drone platform and it can cover a wide area.
Eyes and Ears are both independent means of object identification. Put them together and the result is more than the sum of the parts. That sum becomes a highly refined real time search entry into a vast intelligence system data base.
http://foreignpolicy.com/2017/03/20/the-multibillion-dollar-u-s-spy-agency-you-havent-heard-of-trump/
The author is James Bamford. I add that to emphasize credibility.
The spy agency? National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. Note that the website of this agency is a .mil site. A small bit of intel data. I would be a good spy. Just open source, hide in plain site stuff!
https://www.nga.mil/Pages/Default.aspx
Hardly a super secret site! This spy stuff is easy and not as thrilling as in the movies.
Huge intelligence data repositories are not silos. They are all integrated. One might be considered more Eyes oriented another more Ears oriented. Put what is seen together with what is heard by intercept all in real time into a "Capture it All, Total Information Data Base" and the intelligence capability is formidable!
Knowing exact geo position of an object, moving or stationary in real time produces the potential search term input to any cell phone, wifi, tracking signal or other geo locatable device at that location. What is seen links to what can be "heard". It works the other way as well. If one input is dropped the other can continue to track. Capability applicable to either friend or foe. Real time data can link to a time line of past detection that has a proof documentation factor approaching blockchain.
It is all so obvious! Link it up to open source data base like LPR or cell phone IMSI history and it more than triangulates a target object from another view point of where it was seen or heard before.
All it takes is billions of dollars to know everything. What is done with what is known is the big question. That, of course, is the big secret. The biggest secret of all is to keep object capabilities secret. Hard to do when the capabilities of the Eye and Ear object system are all intended to support action intent.
The action verb always links to (implements the relationship between) a Subject Thing and an Object Thing. Not so hard to be a spy when the whole thing is simply about discovering the simple relationship between object and action learned in acquiring the foundation of language. Nouns and verbs with some modifiers and other refinement attached.
https://www.nga.mil/Pages/Default.aspx
Leads to a vast amount of open source links that put a lot of writing on the wall. Nobody ever heard of it but looking at it it appears to be an elephant in the room with a memory that never forgets!
The application programs are the verbs that betray a background object thing operating system on which they operate to relate Subject to Object. Know the operating system and it deduces the nature of the application programs and the object recipient and purpose of the application program.

Toki Pona - Point of Entry for a Linguistic Journey
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toki_Pona
This link is a strange place to start the journey but any point of entry to this domain of language suffices. Simply start here and follow the links it leads to and they are many and each creates a distinct path of its own. I am not sure why I found this to be so fascinating and was compelled to make a blog entry about it.
My interest did not start with the initial link.
This link started the chain:
https://www.independentsciencenews.org/health/the-meaning-of-life-part-i/
Next was a jump to this link:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reductionism
I am a reductionist. At least to the extent that I want to reduce down to a discretely identified lowest level building blog object in any real world structure or abstract structure that is the object of choice level below which it is not really necessary to reduce further. An arbitrary low/high level (depending on how you think of the tree...root at top or root at bottom...Top down breakdown or bottom up assembly. It is only an matter of turning the tree upside down to make a different point of view or entry to the same structure. Some like one way. Others the other. Neither is right or wrong. Dogmatic dictates of which way is to be chosen are failures to communicate.
Next jump was to this to the initial link at the beginning of this blog entry which I chose to start with.
Yes, I did read the entire Toki Pona Link. I understood some of it. No wonder so few speak it!
The Toki Pano link jumped to this link, chosen from many branch opportunities offered at the Toki Pano link:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_semantic_metalanguage
A more logical language trending toward a computer orientation artificial language.
That link provided a jump to this link:
https://www.griffith.edu.au/humanities-languages/school-humanities-languages-social-science/research/natural-semantic-metalanguage-homepage
Kind of a pot at the end of a rainbow of links that was very interesting. Interesting in one way to the extent that all the links mentioned in this blog entry formed an abstractly connected block chain. Any link in the chain could have lead to a different branch than the one I chose to follow. Any link could have been the one I might go back to, after learning more going down the chain that I had traveled, to start a new chain of travel that I felt was a better chain to take me where I wanted to go.....That destination being more intuitive as I traveled and actually rather unknown until I got there. At the "there" point to continue the chain or back to any number of possible branches offered in an expanding number of previously traveled links that I did not choose at forks in the road.
Maybe it is the path of the abstract chainlinked journey that I traveled that only happened to by in the Linguistic Domain that was of interest to me, or at least of equal interest. Abstract object concepts pointing to other abstract object concepts with my free range free will was my compass to follow where it would take me on discovery.
A satisfying mini journey on the World Wide Web that I am beginning to perceive in the Holistic Frame of a big fascinating Blockchain navigated by a free will GPS guiding me somehow to places I did not even know I wanted to go but only feel on a step by step, link to link basis always with the choice of going back to any previous step and starting a new choice blockchain branch. Sometimes, rarely, going a long, long way back in the blockchain time line of links/paths followed. Doing that sometimes confirms the path taken, sometimes changes it to some degree.
Sometimes a past link choice in the past becomes a paradigm shift point getting me back to the main chain and abandoning the previously followed fork.
Blockchain!
Gotta love the concept!

Maybe it is the path of the abstract chainlinked journey that I traveled that only happened to by in the Linguistic Domain that was of interest to me, or at least of equal interest. Abstract object concepts pointing to other abstract object concepts with my free range free will was my compass to follow where it would take me on discovery.
A satisfying mini journey on the World Wide Web that I am beginning to perceive in the Holistic Frame of a big fascinating Blockchain navigated by a free will GPS guiding me somehow to places I did not even know I wanted to go but only feel on a step by step, link to link basis always with the choice of going back to any previous step and starting a new choice blockchain branch. Sometimes, rarely, going a long, long way back in the blockchain time line of links/paths followed. Doing that sometimes confirms the path taken, sometimes changes it to some degree.
Sometimes a past link choice in the past becomes a paradigm shift point getting me back to the main chain and abandoning the previously followed fork.
Blockchain!
Gotta love the concept!
