Max interviews Prof. Samuel Bowles, who has an interesting take on the concepts of wealth and property. He defines the term "guard labor" and points out it constitutes about 25% of US economic activity. Add 20% of economic activity spent on health care and it's no wonder Americans are spinning their wheels but not going forward.

1. Max is the best!

Guard labor, I never heard that one before.

What do you want to be, a serf or a guard?

One might get an extra piece of stale bread as a guard.

5. Max, I wish I could do what you do. Thanks so much. Do I have to move to Paris?

Pass it around if you like it.

My interest in public awareness is reflected in my intention to provide some general competency skills and common sense awareness through public education!

A strong functional social fabric depends entirely on the generally publicized understood, accepted and practiced competency skills built on "common sense" processes embedded in our non-verbal behaviors and include a touch of shining brilliance from the adoption of the "golden" rule(s).

This site strives to provide some data on how to move back in the direction of a democracy that functions
to provide services for our tax dollars (payroll, sales, excise, fdc, etc.).

Thanks for your hard work.
