work is done when a force moves a body or when there is a change of
energy. considering that all known life is solar powered carbon units,
what distinguishes us in wealth ought to be a product of our minds
affecting our environment. we all have a vision of how to manipulate
our environment to best suit ourselves. it takes some insight to come
to a negotiated settlement. governments would have us believe that
boom and bust in the economy is bad. perhaps this is bad, for
government. there is no shortage of outlets for energy expenditure.
the easiest way to create wealth is to identify a need and fulfill it.
this requires some knowledge which must be aquired over time. how
wealthy do you think would be the person who bestows immortality upon
mankind and provides the universe as its domain?
