Again as told, the knowledge of faith is dark and dim, according to I Cor.13:12: "now we see through a glass, darkly." But in their first state there was dimness neither in man nor in the angels, since darkness was the penalty of sin. Hence neither man nor the angels can have had faith in their first state.
Again as told, the apostle says in Rom.10:17: "faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." But there was no place for this in the first state of man or the angels, since they did not hear anything from another. Neither then was there faith in this state, whether of man or of angels.
On the other hand: the apostle says (Heb.11:6): "he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." Now in their first state, angels and man were coming to God. It follows that they had need of faith.

So, tell me again, what do the business owners in that community pay taxes for?

The Soviet Socialist System had "workers" doing non-productive work and were paid in worthless currency, thus,
"We pretend to work; they pretend to pay us". It is also noteworthy, that the small but powerful "elitist ruling class", lived quite
well on imported goods living in a swamp.

Funny how some people find such a system desirable.

Joshua 24:14,15

Configuration Items and Change Authorities. One is a candidate for change and the other is the entity that controls it.
Change Authorities may be individual contributors, managers, or committees representing knowledge with respect to the item, its proposed change and related impact. Change has to be defined in terms of its scope, importance, justification, and root cause. As well, within a Best Practices environment, change should be identified in the context of an improvement, a preventive, or a corrective action."

In late 2010, Lumber Liquidators, a retailer with $650 million in revenue and 225 locations, reported a net income drop of 45 percent due to "reduced productivity" associated with its ERP implementation. "Enterprise Resource Planning", which unfortunately puts focus on resources rather than individuals. From a project success perspective, it would be more helpful to call it "Everything Requires People."

Lumber Liquidators problems arose because, apparently, the company did not anticipate the difficulty employees would have transitioning from the old system to SAP. Poor training is a common obstacle on enterprise implementations of this type.
The CEO of Panorama Consulting, Eric Kimberling, placed ERP change management into a broader context:
Unfortunately, Lumber Liquidators isn’t alone in its insufficient attention to organizational change management, ERP training, and communications. Most companies view these activities as optional, nice-to-have activities. However, as many companies realize the hard way, these are critical necessities.

Diminishing returns are due to the disruption of the entire productive process as additional units of labor are added to a fixed amount of capital.
The law of diminishing returns remains an important consideration just as in farming.

As before standing on a square has difficulties until they are aware what is around them as opportunity costs. For those up to the proverbial chin not
wanting to admit the waves coming in the square cesspool enjoy the vertical square foot world. Indeed to tolerate it has landed costs I convey.

The marginal returns to each successive increment of labor inputs get smaller and smaller and ultimately turn negative.

I find it fascinating, aedens, that your chart at the end fits exactly with the generational cycle:

Optimism -> Austerity (like 1870 or 1950)
Euphoria -> Awakening (like 1890 or 1970)
Desperation -> Unraveling (like 1910 or 1990)
Depression -> Crisis (like 1930 or 2010)

I wish that was the actual case going forward. Be very careful. From August 10th

Civil war between the SDR bank cult lobbies and the militarized industrial paper fiat complex cults.

Non financial corporations have been borrowing money from the bond cult, whose members have been desperately scrambling to lock in yields as the Fed has driven them closer to zero. Mutual funds purchased $267 billion in corporate and foreign bonds in 2012. To the extent that some of these funds have been used to buy back shares, the bond cult has been financing the bull market in stocks.
This was all masterminded by the Fed’s equity and bond cults and implemented with their NZIRP and QE programs.

I forget what chapters, but this was all nicely described in Orwell's book, 1984.

The primary aim of modern warfare is to use up the products of the machine without raising the general standard of living. Ever since the end of the nineteenth century, the problem of what to do with the surplus of consumption goods has been latent in industrial society. From the moment when the machine first made its appearance it was clear to all thinking people that the need for human drudgery, and therefore to a great extent for human inequality, had disappeared. If the machine were used deliberately for that end, hunger, overwork, dirt, illiteracy, and disease could be eliminated within a few generations. And in fact, without being used for any such purpose, but by a sort of automatic process — by producing wealth which it was sometimes impossible not to distribute — the machine did raise the living standards of the average humand being very greatly over a period of about fifty years at the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth centuries. But it was also clear that an all-round increase in wealth threatened the destruction — indeed, in some sense was the destruction — of a hierarchical society. In a world in which everyone worked short hours, had enough to eat, lived in a house with a bathroom and a refrigerator, and possessed a motor-car or even an aeroplane, the most obvious and perhaps the most important form of inequality would already have disappeared. If it once became general, wealth would confer no distinction. It was possible, no doubt, to imagine a society in which wealth, in the sense of personal possessions and luxuries, should be evenly distributed, while power remained in the hands of a small privileged caste. But in practice such a society could not long remain stable. For if leisure and security were enjoyed by all alike, the great mass of human beings who are normally stupefied by poverty would become literate and would learn to think for themselves; and when once they had done this, they would sooner or later realize that the privileged minority had no function, and they would sweep it away. In the long run, a hierarchical society was only possible on a basis of poverty and ignorance.
