Loose birthday morning thoughts

Even people who write about an alternative thought framework of economics, the relationship between business and society, and those who would like to see this entire system based on and derived from the mission of humanity [please wait for this! ...] keep arguing, exercise pecking ordering, fight for the primacy of their ideas.
