Liberty Day is too, for some, not all.

I woke up with the concept of division of labor working in my brain and once aware enough to regain control over my thoughts I participated in the work on division of labor. The idea is to measure how division of labor works.

If there is only one person, or if every person is completely disconnected from every other person, there can be no division of labor.

That is one way to measure division of labor.

A very good example of division of labor is provided by the natural thing called reproduction whereby one isn't enough to make enough one.

It takes two.

One does one thing.

The other does the other thing.

That is the division of labor example provided by the natural process of life as life exists.

The measure of that example of division of labor is the number of people in the past, now, and the number of people in the future - clearly.

Failing to divide that labor is an end to the process of reproduction, unless other means are used, and even those other means require more than one person working to accomplish whatever goal is in mind.

Labor = work.

Action resulting in production.

Before the action there is no production.

After the action there is production.

One person can act, and one person can produce, and when only one person is involved in the act that produces then there is, by definition, no division of labor. The one person does all the work, and no one else does any of the work.

1/0

1 divided by 0.

How does that work out, and I can show you, but I didn't do all the work, I've read about work done by other people on this division of labor measure.

Division of labor is one thing. How is division of labor measured?

Another example can be provided, added to the example of reproduction, and I offer a unit of production, which can be measured as a calorie, which can be converted to a measure of power, so long as the measure of time is included.

Calorie per second.

That can be converted to watts.

1 calorie/second [I.T.] = 4.186 8 watt

Look here

How many rednecks does it take to screw up a light bulb?

I'm just saying...

Division of labor on anything can be accurately measured and to do so there must be a product measure, a thing that is produced, and then divide that thing produced by the number of people working on it.

1/2

It takes 2 rednecks to screw up one light bulb.

The work load is divided by 2, and the measure can be much more accurate.

One redneck holds the ladder, the other redneck does the screwing on top of the ladder, and the result, the product, which is one screwed light bulb, is produced, and it required, in that example, 2 rednecks.

How about colonization of mars?

1 = Colonization of mars.

That is one thing.

One thing not yet produced, and the question is, and the question can be answered when it is answered, and that question, when it is answered, can be answered by however many living beings were required to produce that one thing.

1/1 plus many zeros

How many zeros?

How about human colonization of Earth?

Before, way before, back in time, way back in time, relatively speaking, there were no humans colonizing Earth, now there are, that is again: one thing.

Colonization of Earth = 1

What is the accurate answer for the division of labor?

1/?

or

1/x?

How many zeros?


This may seem to be stupid to you, but to me it is how my brain works on knowing things better, by working on these things, looking at these things from many different angles, and creating examples, and producing problems, and asking questions, and not settling for answers that are riddled with contradictions.

How about something more specific in detail, and something more practical, something like asking a group of young people if they can divide their labor and produce 100 dollars.

$100.00/10

Suppose there are 10 young people in the room.

A time period is need, or there is no power in the answer.

How about converting the $100.00 product into a fixed measure of power instead of a fraudulent criminal measure of legal power?  I know, that is saying a lot, and probably confusing people, but that is why I'm asking for a conversion to something less dubious as the $100.00 measure.

The 10 young people still have to get the cash, in the time period allotted, and then we can convert that to calories, we could all go to lunch and buy some food.

How about that?

10 young people, they have until tomorrow noon to divide their labor and pay for lunch to feed all 10.

Lunch/10

One of the kids comes up with a plan.

That is division of labor working right there on that spot, at that time.

We all go home and ask our parents to fork over 10 bucks each.

Johnny, you all know about Johnny, well, he says, no fucking way, dude, my parents are broke.

Time is running out.

The thief shuts up, not wanting to expose his version of work to the rest of the potential victims. Once the product is produced, it is his plan for it to go missing.

Lunch - lunch = no lunch/10

Math is an angle of view.
