WilliamLMillerThat insight became the foundation for an economic dynamic of sound finances that crowds out poverty and taxation. Since then, I’ve spent over three years writing it out, refining it, and preparing it for peer-reviewed publication. As a layperson, I also hired an academic editing service to help polish it for submission. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/UBI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UBI</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ValueCreation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ValueCreation</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AcademicJourney" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AcademicJourney</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/EconomicPhilosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EconomicPhilosophy</a>

WilliamLMillerWe don’t always recognize how much value we create just by living fully—by loving, wanting, building, choosing. Value doesn’t begin with money. It begins with desire—concupiscere. What we care about, we shape. What we shape, we improve. That’s how the world gets better. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Concupiscere" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Concupiscere</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Philosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Philosophy</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ValueCreation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ValueCreation</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/PositiveThinking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PositiveThinking</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/NeurodivergentWisdom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NeurodivergentWisdom</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/HumanFlourishing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HumanFlourishing</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DesireAsCreativeForce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DesireAsCreativeForce</a>

Christoph Begall<a href="https://mastodon.social/@nielspflaeging" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@nielspflaeging</a> I was about to answer that your equation is a little to simple and that you are forgetting <a href="https://toot.kif.rocks/tags/valueCreation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#valueCreation</a> and <a href="https://toot.kif.rocks/tags/flowOptimisation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#flowOptimisation</a>. But actually I think that you get both by <a href="https://toot.kif.rocks/tags/selforganization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selforganization</a>.

Christoph Begall<a href="https://mastodon.social/@nielspflaeging" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@nielspflaeging</a> my first point was that <a href="https://toot.kif.rocks/tags/liberatingstructures" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#liberatingstructures</a> does not imply <a href="https://toot.kif.rocks/tags/valuecreation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#valuecreation</a> (this is where we agree), but it does not deny it either. For me the first is a tool, the second is a goal. Focusing on a tools instead of a goal does not create value, but the same is true for alienating people that like certain tools.

Christoph Begall<a href="https://mastodon.social/@nielspflaeging" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@nielspflaeging</a> what you say sounds to me like oversimplification, but also fits with my experience. There were a few super nice people with deep believe in <a href="https://toot.kif.rocks/tags/liberatingstructures" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#liberatingstructures</a> , but they seemed to have lost the focus on <a href="https://toot.kif.rocks/tags/valuecreation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#valuecreation</a> . I still feel like an engineer and this is a little too much « l’art pour l’art »

Niels PflaegingA word about <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LiberatingStructures" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LiberatingStructures</a>: I find that it's usually people with little or no clue of actual <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/valuecreation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#valuecreation</a> that find it amazing, exciting and, well, "liberating".Think about it.Thinking about what is said above: Scrap "usually" and substitute it by "always". Scrap "little or" 🙂 Sorry.

Niels Pflaeging<a href="https://mindly.social/@paulio" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@paulio</a> The answer to your question is simple: Every company wants to adapt <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BetaCodex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BetaCodex</a> philosophy because they are ALL facing what you call "pressure from consumer demand". We call it market-pull. How can I be sure? Well, all markets became complex around the 1970s and 1980s. And may I disagree with the "core belief" you are stating? NO business is about <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/money" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#money</a>. All businesses are about <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/valuecreation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#valuecreation</a> and they NEED the $$$ to survive. Just the way that human existence is not about oxygen! ;-)
