This topic is complex, I am trying to understand the different scales and issues at each each scale....
----
Discuss things I care about:
1. Scale dependent systems maximize freedom
- Communities require shared language.
- Communities that are forced to adhere to values from other communities are undermined
- Authority for a community is undermined by experts from outside the community
Distortions:
1. 'Killing grandma'
++ remedies available. responsibly for health. diabetes etc.
- Pandemic. Epidemic.
++ Flu, measles. Invading army
++ Physical communicable disease, AIDS

Is it measurable? Will defining a metric of success help? I am not sure. But here are two:
1. Measure illness
2. Measure freedom (or measure censorship)
