RBE is also common sense. Did your parents charge you for room and board when you were a child? Would you charge your elderly and infirmed parent for such support? Just extend that concept and treat everyone as your family. It is much easier to understand when survival is a higher priority in situations such as total war.

No, it isn't common sense. That's why it isn't intuitive. A RBE economy is not analogous to the nuclear family situation, again that's a poor example and an extreme oversimplification.

Why do you believe that RBE is not like a nuclear family? Can you give an example?

RBE is as simple as e=mc² to describe and just as difficult to understand. All science is like that. Scientific truths are simple to demonstrate and nearly impossible to thoroughly explain. That's why scientists go through 6 or more years of college. That's also why science is not a debate and I will not engage in debate. Debaters use logical fallacies to cheat their way through arguments.

Except this isn't science, and your pedantic meanderings aren't proof of anything.

That wasn't meant to be a scientific statement. It is epistemology. You just made my point by making a fallacious argument.

Ask me a specific question about what you don't understand or be perceived as arguing through ignorance.

How aggressive. Why are you entering a discussion convinced you have all the answers? Isn't that the hallmark of ignorance rather than intellect?

I am merely your humble servant.
