28 July 2012: Human Commoditization
by jcyf94
Information are bought & sold. If one can bet on anything, why not privacy? We are all hacked one way or another. Why not human life? Financial products are subject to interpretations, and if you are armed with lawyers, you get to solidify your interpretations. Why not human life? Speculating on human lives, bundling human lives into derivatives, a…nd extract values out of human lives, as long as O…TC markets are off the hand of regulators, think of the evolutionary effects and innovation acceleration, for no one wants to have his life betted on and lose his liberty permanently. You learn to strike others preemptively & control the less informed so you have control over your human investment, whether you stand on the long side or short side. Slavery is of the same mentality: capture, dehumanize, and torture into absolute obedience. Except, your death worth much more than your productivity. Human lives are the most abundant economic resources in the world. There already have been enough pioneers with spirits of ingenuity to see the potentials of controlling and commoditize human lives with least opportunity or sunk costs. As long as OTC markets stay out of regulators’ anti-competitive meddling, people with elite status not only could find another alternative stream of profit while gradually cleansing the indesireable aspects of society, bundles after bundles, no longer having to deal with ungodly sights of poverty, numbness and ignorance and unpleasant noise of human right, tyranny or inequality. There is finally a market solution to societal pathology, growth stagnation, and overpopulation of the sub-species. Finally, the entitlement problem will have the focus switch from the well-breed superior core of the cvilization to deficiency-ridden inferior burden of the society. You open the door to human commoditization, the private proprietory technology will take care of nuisances like humanity, ethics, or unresolved thoughts and behaviors. By then, can we truly establish a perfect market and an unfettered capitalist system in its purity with the invisible hand truly serving its optimal function.
