In a situation where there is significant deprivation of the
fulfillment of needs, the <br>
extreme top is only affected minimally. The extreme bottom isnt
affected all that much <br>
since it seems to be isolated from provision already. The middle gets
wiped out.<br>
<br>
Pizzas are delivered every day. As long as there is an unlimited
supply of pizza,<br>
everyone gets all they want or need. Reduce the numbers of pizzas to a
deprivation<br>
point where there is not enough to go around. Some will get all they
want. Some will not.<br>
Those who accumulated pizza wealth at rapid rate will get better and
better at eating<br>
and the weaker slower eaters might not get any on some days.<br>
<br>
We see this in pig raising scenarios where there are environmental
deprivations.<br>
<br>
The big pigs will eat first and then lie down in front of the feeder
and ask the <br>
others if they are big enough to make them move out of the way.
Finally the big<br>
pigs get tired of lying in front of the feeder, but the situation is
under their control.<br>
<br>
The challenge is to design sustainable systems that allow provision of
needs <br>
while dampening the tendency of a small elite group to dominate and
reduce access.<br>

Eugene Debs thrown into jail by the vicious Woodrow Wilson, who kept

the First Amendment with the weasel-words about "fire in a crowded
theater." <br>

The "deeply un-American" Espionage Act was used by the federal
government three times in the century from Wilson's day to ours. The
Obama administration has already used it six times.
