Engineering mechanics making biology redundant
There was a time when a person could feel and know the result. He/ She did not need any lab tests to read the results. Understanding was living. Now even the lab test results often confuse. We are not paying attention to the natural faculties lost whenever a new technical device is invented. The concrete jungles, with multi storied apartments and nil space for trees and birds, insects and the rest of the biosphere are making us the bio-queers or freaks. But we thumb our noses at the transgender, homos and lesbians!
Economics and the economic development is actually the total extermination of nature. In the first chapter of economics, the apology is that it is a study of the ordinary man in his ordinary business of life. Many variations of this definition have been also added.
But from the second chapter onwards, the man is forgotten. You find, the indifference curves, cost curves, revenue curves, supply curve, demand curve...the mock Newtonian Physics! Meaningless technical jargon and make believe technical expertise obfuscates the basic fact that the so called subject is dealing with human beings, bundles of emotions and capable of living only in emotional relationships and never in the make believe mechanized monetary equations.
What we have to study are 1) Ecology, 2) Psychology,3)Natural Geography,4)the resulting tribal and social customs, traditions etc,and never this so called economic man, the nonexistent phantom.
Man basically is a social creature. As a social creature the basic natural drive must be altruism and not the deadly competition. Wants or greed are not unlimited. It is the urge to help, to belong, to grow with the tribe that are unlimited. Actually the human organism before the development of the cortex or mind, depended only n the sense of smell. It could distinguish among 10,000 different smells—friends, foes, sex partners, meals..., far better expertise than now we people who are totally dependent on computers. As the smells were common, perceptions too were common and there were no misunderstandings, negotiations, wars etc.In fact the entire biosphere obeyed the ecosphere and perception based on the common smells enabled symbiosis, cooperation, coordination, harmony...
Today we are busy curbing our Amygdala with analysis, and allow the blindness innate in the imprisonment to the visible spectrum, dominate our lives. Every other organism, the entire biosphere itself, we have dethroned from their partnership with us, in the gigantic stupidity. The common smell/communication was an emanation from the total reality and not the less than one per cent reality or the visible spectrum which has given us the pride of the big fool.
Economics has created a big wedge between man and his own basic nature. When a member of the tribe was found stealing, he felt totally ashamed and he simply could not live. Shame overwhelmed them.Now,thanks to economics and fraud promoted as a great talent the thieves smile happily and become the great leaders.Socities have become gigantic Kleptocracies—huge thieving corporations, gigantic in size and so complex that they cannot be even managed or modelled, trying to steal from each other and all, devastating nature. From robber barons, societies have moved to huge corporations totally inanimate and who just rob from nature. On the TV channels without even realising that lies are uttered, as they have become automatic habits, you find lies pitted against lies, as debates!
Markets are created for new products which are taking over as substitutes for our organs. Economic development has become innovating new and new products to market them without regard to the damage they do to the individual biology and the biosphere. Machines are edging out biological entities including ourselves and the entire ecosphere. Generating social hysteria for what is called economic development is the method of market promotion today.
Can this dismal science-economics without any concern for ecology, be allowed to continue as a faculty at all?
