10. "the smallest jurisdiction of governance that can solve the problem"
The way of the EU wise.... (think of the complexity of a multinational
government like the EU, not with mere states, but with different
depreciation schedules, whole different languages and histories of
accountancy and value. It's a nightmare, the eu, and the only way
is to trust everyone.... with trust and goodwill, no hurdle is too
large.

I question whether this exists in the system of government with
jurisdiction over the problem. Health and welfare of a loved on
is an intimate jurisdiction... cost is not a concept, only life,
love, indeed, so cost is not a basis really, and cannot be trusted
as the basis of a social accounting.... the free markets rhetoric
discounts what i can't but call the "social elevation", the merit
by which we collectivley aggreee our mutual society is about
beyond trading products.? What is this? And would we to cut loose
all the ties, and nuclear detonate any nation that violates threaty
rights, creating a sort of tense longstanding inevitable cataclysm.

:-) love, santa
