How Social Deterioration Works

 

October 23, 2021

Social deterioration is caused by incompetent corrupters taking over social structures and using them for power mongering purposes. Taking-over means shoving out competent persons and putting incompetents in their place.

Social structures are not supposed to be power structures. Defined functions are stripped from social structures once they become power structures.

All organized activity has been reduced to corruption in that manner over recent decades. It's how the economy shifted to channeling money upward and out of reach of normal social activities. Power structures channel money upward, which is how mongering power works.

The nonfunctionality of organizations is obvious. In the financial area, the removal of laws created to stop the robber barons has freed up and created endless organizations designed to strip resources from businesses and leave nothing but debt ridden and bankrupt shells for previously successful companies.

The nature of the problem is visible in the deterioration of technology. Nuclear reactors can no longer be constructed in the western world and probably nowhere else at this time. Whenever a project gets started, it disintegrates into chaos and is abandoned—no credible explanations of why.

The details show non-compliance at meeting required specifications. Why not just add a few inspectors to enforce compliance, as the laws require? The failure to do so, over and over, shows an inability to do so. The inability to do so shows that the degree of complexity is overwhelming everyone involved.

The demands were no problem several decades ago. In between, the world lost its ability to produce nuclear reactors, just when they are most needed. Superficially, activists are demanding safer technology. But there never was a reason why the reactors could not be produced and managed in a safe manner.

The excuses are all over the map, which shows that they are excuses rather than actual reasons. The real reason is the same reason why complex technology can no longer be produced anywhere. No one can manage the complexities anymore.

The high technology of computers might look like it is thriving, but it too is deteriorating into nonfunctionality, as software becomes too glitchy to do what it is supposed to do. The big plans for expansion are on hold due to an inability to handle the complexities.

Mechanical screw-ups are occurring where they never existed before, such as rail tracks disintegrating due to arcing between dissimilar metals. The inspectors can't locate such problems, because they know nothing about high voltage processes—total incompetence at what they are supposed to be doing.

Military technology is grinding to a halt, since it is the most demanding. The latest aircraft carrier has only one elevator for moving aircraft to the surface where there was supposed to be eight. Magnetic lifts were designed in, while there is no such thing as magnetic lifts and never will be. So an old-fashioned elevator had to be patched in after everything was constructed.

The inability to produce properly functioning F-35s is due to endless nonfunctionality of mechanisms—not just the high technology but such routine things as ejection mechanisms. Why not just hire someone who knows something about those processes? Because they have been shoved out of the process and replaced by incompetents.

Another example is building new battle ships which are rotting from the inside out. It's caused by dissimilar metals in contact with each other and disintegrating due to electrolysis. That problem used to be prevented by neutralizing high voltage plasma energy which runs through metals. Someone missed that problem in new designs. That's like missing the windows in an automobile. It's what happens when incompetents shove out competent persons.
