While we are all flinging around jargon and links, am I so wrong to say that
"nudges
<https://www.amazon.com/Nudge-Improving-Decisions-Health-Happiness/dp/014311
526X> " are a way of moving to the adjacent possible?  

 

Speakingof the non-adjacent impossible, I woke up the other morning with a
fantasy of being in some sort large community meeting, and standing up and
asking the question: 

 

"Why ==>exactly<== is it that everybody shouldn't have the same annual
income?"

You're just trying to get a rise out of Nick, right?
