Strong Indications That Money Is Now Like Electrons In Electrical Circuits

Because now you can see that we are in a situation where, if money can be more directly converted to information, and especially electrified information (or information can be more directly converted to money), in the sense of simply "crunching numbers to get more numbers;" something I've been talking about for some time now; you can see now that those sectors (information tech and finance) of the economy thus blessed are growing very rapidly, delivering the best profit margins, whereas most of the other areas are not.

Unfortunately, living beings need things that are a bit more substantial as well and, as you can see in the graph below, those sectors of the economy that make, and do, things of substance, aren't fairing nearly as well as one might hope they would... Well, assuming of course that all of us folks involved actually want to continue living you understand. Details details, right?

It's also disturbing to note that it is with information, and its control, that despots, and authoritarian governments, stay in power. And of course, how else could it be when money is both motivator, and the means to make people believe in whatever reality you want them to believe in.

Neat trick, hugh? Not so survivable any more though. Not in the long run, which in today's measurement of time (because the electrons want always to move faster) is not a very long run to come at all.
