List,

THE LAW OF VALUE AND WORTH (OF THE INDIVIDUAL IN RELATION TO THE GROUP)

Demand and Supply: One should buy into the group "low" and sell out to the
group "high"...in order to create a "trust" of symbolic funds (One should
willingly suspend disbelief in order to create trust).

> "trust"
individual
<------------------------->value/worth<--------------------------->group
(one of many) e pluribus unum
(many of one)

quantity increases value decreases: value increases quantity decreases
worth increases quantity decreases: quantity increases worth decreases

Here is an objective measure, "trust"--a proportional quantity of the
objective measures of "value" and "worth" of the individual in relation to a
group and of the group in relation to the individual. It shows that
(finally) the "trust" is independent of either group or individual
standards. It implies that "success" is also an objective designation which
manifests where the uniqueness of the individual intersects with the
sameness of the group--at this point value and worth are entrusted to "god"
(essence, gestalts) and manifests through the individual (it becomes
"self-evident"). Which is to say that we could just vote on the proposed
question (above) "Democratically" and the person who receives the average
number of votes (neither the most nor the least) is the winner...as long as
he/she voted "undecided". This person would be the least subjectively
objective and therefore the most trustworthy (as long as he/she decidedly
voted undecided).
