STEMPrime Supplemental #6 | Commentary on JRE Episode #1492 Jocko Willink Interview

This is a commentary on the Jocko Willink Interview. Jocko’s perspective and approach to leadership is phenomenal. As far as psychology and sociology goes – he’s nailed it. Simply listening to this man talk; I am nearly certain that he is, if not self-actualizing, he is on his way.

He employs almost everything that we talk about in STEM Theory. A restructuring of social motivational foci, he knows how to get other’s intrinsic motivation engine’s revving (self-determination theory of motivation), and -whether he realizes it or not- his entire method for dealing with others is a form of helping others actualize. Self-actualization is a cornerstone of what Jocko is talking about.

This supplemental is a commentary on Bret Weinstein’s interview on The Joe Rogan Experience. Bret Weinstein’s idea of “The Dark Horse Duo Presidential Plan” is brilliant, for way more than just one reason. I’ll review his idea and deliver my own personal perspective on the issue.

Supplemental #9 | Legalized Ransom & Kidnapping

When it comes to social damage, nothing compares to how we abuse money.

Arrests really are just legalized kidnapping; and bail really is just legalized ransom. How we handle crime and punishment is simply, and unarguably wrong. We’ve put currency on such an impossible pedestal that every corner we turn, money is destroying something.

STEMPrime Edibles | A Rebuttal to Jeremy Bentham’s & Prof Scott Huettel’s Definitions of Value

Episode 6 part 2/4 excerpt – Prof Scott Huettel’s course, “Behavioral Economics: When Psychology and Economics Collide” on The Great Courses Plus website is an amazing course, and I would definitely recommend it to anybody interested in economics.

However – he reviews Jeremy Benthams claim that value is attributable to pain and pleasure, and then continues to deliver his own analysis as to what the fundamental variables are that we see as value.

I would have to disagree with both Prof Huettel and Jeremy Bentham.

If you’re interested in checking out Huettel’s course, here is the link: https://www.thegreatcoursesplus.com/behavioral-economics-when-psychology-and-economics-collide

STEMPrime Edibles | Why The Term “Post-Scarcity” Needs To Be Replaced

The New Post-Scarcity”, I review the two main issues I have with using the term “post-scarcity” especially when it comes to STEM Theory.

The contest submission deadline is October 1st, 2020 at 12:00am

STEMPrime Edibles | Commentary on ‘Words & Numbers Episode #167’: If It Saves Just One Life

Episode 5 excerpt – Antony Davies and James Harrigan of the Words & Number podcast (https://fee.org/shows/audio/words-numbers/) dedicated an entire episode to the pandemic-fueled “If it saves just one life” mantra and the associated question of the morality of the situation.

The episode referenced is #167 (https://fee.org/shows/audio/words-numbers/viewing-the-world-through-panic-tinted-glasses)

STEMPrime Edibles | Cutting Crime By Over 90%

Episode 4 excerpt – I break down crime into two major categories according to crime statistics provided by The FBI (https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s & https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2018/crime-in-the-u.s.-2018).

A logical analysis shows us the surprisingly large percentage of crimes that are financially motivated.

So – how does this play into STEM Theory?
