Ramsey on discounting future " welfare" or Keynes ?




Altruism suggests we maximize the rate we race to global free laboring
Ie the point where there is no necessary social labor

Future finite souls caught in the pre free laboring interval
should be minimized

what might mitigate this prescription
other then giving the present cohorts of finite souls
A better freer life

The bourgeois optimal is a golden rule
That attempts to equalize sacrifice

Equal sacrifice might suggest several competing and opposed prescriptions
Based on various calcu
actions and objective function assumptions

Uncertainty creates another fat layer of retardants on accumulation max

It amazes me how far I've drifted from 5 year plan heroic sacrifice

So much if it seems not just murderously wasteful
But filled with a nimrod like hubris

Storming heaven

Ah where has my romantic pursuit of the sublime mass self sacrifice gone ?
