Decision Making Technical Means: steel End: movement An end is chosen, let’s say to make movement and transportation easier. We decide to make automobiles. With that end in mind, a decision is made to use steel to make the automobile. The technical means for making, and shipping the steel are decided.
Decision Making Technical Means: steel End: movement End: speed but it uses a natural resource (steel), and contributes to our valuing lighter and faster cars. A new end, speed, a perverse end, arises. The means fulfill our original need
Decision Making End: movement End: speed With this new end (speed) in mind, new decisions are made to enhance the speed of the car. Decision Making Technical Means: steel Technical Means Now, the means for creating these faster cars are decided.
Decision Making End: movement End: speed Decision Making Technical Means: steel Technical Means Means (steel) have now justified means (faster cars). Means and valuable ends are severed. Valuable ends are lost.
Decision Making End: movement End: speed Decision Making Technical Means: steel Technical Means End: production facility The means for building faster cars fulfills (1) the value of speed; and (2) it contributes to the need for the production of big and fast cars. Means (steel) have now justified means (faster cars). Means and valuable ends are severed.
Decision Making Ends End: speed Decision Making Technical Means: steel Technical Means End: production facility Decision Making Yet another round of decision making begins to fulfill the need for production. Technical Means One of the means for production of fast cars are people.
Decision Making Ends End: speed Decision Making Technical Means: steel Technical Means End: production facility Decision Making Technical Means People are now the perverse means to facilitate machines.
TO SUMMARIZE:
Decision Making Ends End: speed Decision Making Technical Means End: production facility Decision Making Technical Means Perverse means proliferate. Means and ends are severed. Perverse ends are pursued. TO SUMMARIZE: Valuable ends are lost
Decision Making Ends End: speed Decision Making Technical Means Technical Means End: production facility Decision Making Technical Means the solution Valuable Ends add valuable ends supplement technical means
Decision Making Ends End: speed Decision Making Valuable Means Valuable Means End: production facility Decision Making Valuable Means Valuable Ends the solution add valuable ends supplement technical means with valuable means
