Causal Factors In Unruly Behavior

 

By: James Allen Homyak 

September 18, 2024

Causal factors can play a part in our lives, perhaps, far more than we realize. Take for instance a sudden almost unruliness cropping up in someone's personality or sudden behavioral imbalance. Quickly we may wonder what had gotten into a person to give us such pause. 

"Whoa! What is the matter with you today?"

Often these can be our first words we're likely to blurt out. Many of us know intimately that we are likely to encounter such a board mix of generational differences.

Oh, what to do?

We don't always have the time or patience to dig in to what can cause unruly situations.

What makes people tick?

How are people affected by causes which we might not fully appreciate? As in "we weren't there to witness what went down."

Take for instance the youth in our lives. What goes on in their day? What crazy event has potential to really be upsetting?

Our young people can often be impacted by situations in which they actually may even have some idea what do do or think in their minds as a reaction.

Perhaps at a later time after experiencing any given matter, we can all act out in a particular manner given our various personalities and emotional maturities.

In the case of our loved ones we get accustomed to their underpinnings so well that we know them to generally share their mind and thoughts -- or bottle them up inside to stew or simmer. It can be a real mixed bag anymore.

Recently this occurred to me: We humans and our animals are now experiencing a shift in both energies and consciousness all around us -- concepts in esotericism or metaphysics of late,  where we could not possibly have prepared for all of this during any of our own upbringings. We base our lives upon our knowledge & our wisdom & our decisions & our capabilities -- or what have you.

Some of us are now turning to more recent discoveries in science, technology, the humanities, cultural uniqueness and prevailing social constructs. My point being, people have now realized the ability to turn to a plethora of tools and resources, of late, to help us figure out -- perhaps why -- junior needs another neutral influence to step up and handle a matter -- as we've gotten ourselves to wit's end. Unified front needed, etc. etc. 

Can we blame it on the moon? Do we scan our memory to figure out if we did something wrong?

Now is where I've personalized the thought process to delve into some ideas I've tried in order to get a clue about our little  situations in life. Nothing is new. It has all happened before.

I realize everyone can turn to our spiritual awareness -- even our Holy Books, etc., etc. Yet the truth is these sort of guides were produced so long ago before technological measurement had even been devised. We can only hope that we've gotten a handle on as many of those teachings as possible to equip us for balance and moderation.

We need to know...

We need grammar, logic and rhetoric pretty much always. Topics such as arithmetic, music, geometry and astronomy are likely to be the farthest from our mind when we are simply fed-up by unruly behavior. Yet these seven disciplines form the entire core of our classical liberal arts which we're supposed to grasp in public school. These days it has gotten fairly routine for people to conclude we've all been affected by knowledge and wisdom (and lack thereof) which has been messed with (read: corrupted) by forces all around us.

Therefore, I feel compelled to propose some ideas to try out for yourselves in better understanding everyone or any one. After all, the more we know about people, the more we can pickup on clues and hints to move ahead in the right direction -- that is, if it's our responsibility to act or react.

Ask yourself this question:

Have I somehow been blocked from certain concepts that could actually help us? In the case of relying on God's Word regarding our interpersonal relationships we are only as prepared as to the degree in which we apply the Word to our daily discourse.

However, I am one to believe it is time for everyone to awaken to the very real knowledge that we've gotten wrong information from nearly every front imaginable. So it has been said, "the stars are aligned" or "the planets in our solar system affect the aether... just seek deeply into Nikola Tesla!" or as it has been written, "great signs and wonders will occur in the heavens in the last days."

Control over people has been so deliberately engineered across all generations that we're left unaware.... if all we do is get up, go to work, earn our keep, make a buck, pay our bills, rinse and repeat, just like everyone else.

Tools, Tools & More Tools --

Almost everyone has smartphones these days. Some are dumb phones too. Yet when caught unaware, we seldom give it a second thought regarding a simple-to-download, install and try-out various free powertool apps.

Take for instance The Biorhythm Charts -- which scientifically follow us over our entire lives. Moreover, there are free astrology apps to enjoy the tidbits of intrigue one may find. It is possible to input specifics about ourselves into these mostly free tools... and if nothing more, to unlock capabilities that hardly existed back when over 4,000+ denominations were authored and sermons were heart-felt.

There are countless times in my own life that DH / Daily Horoscope by Comitic (specifically this one) has completely nailed it in producing a reading for my particulars relating to my life, what happens with me, etc. Then I get hints about what to do or think in my own little vacuum between my ears.

As mankind, we all have technologic measurement taking place to know full well that massive energy changes (metaphysical) are taking place between the earth and sun and moon. The whole topic fits under the heading "natural law" yet our world has been shaped by 'the robber barons' who did not want us to know much at all. Why was that or why is that? Control. Profit. Dominion. Power. Falsehood. Malevolence. Servitude.

I've proven to myself that we've got a strong degree of manipulation behind everything we thought was both true and real. Our youth have become completely surrounded by every imaginable factor... that it's no wonder anymore. Diversionary forces are at play to destroy families. Pulpits mislead. Educational matters are controlled. Current schoolbooks can and often do lie, or bend and distort reality. Youth today have almost no skillets publicly available that were deemed essential to our recent ancestors. Obviously that is a subjective statement. Kids are dished up the topics they have to deal with. Some topics they're nudged to not even tell mom or dad about such as gender dysphoria. 

 That's how come I tell everyone...

  • broaden your horizons to what has been blocked
  • open up to new ideas in how we operate 
  • realize the many truisms which had gotten occulted on purpose (read: deliberately hidden from view)
  • notate the day/time you were born as precisely as possible to put into your biorhythm chart... take note to check up on yourself and your loved ones, as mom's know fairly accurately when baby was born down to the minute
  • open up to tools that give hints into the 16 personality types as discovered through the Myers Briggs Personality Type Indicators. (MBTI)
  • formulate new questions to carefully ascertain just how vulnerable we are; our sons and daughters; to chaos and confusion and misinformation.
  • in all of this, it can be very possible to get to the bottom of our unruly states of affairs. I can assure you that it won't be 'anti-Christ' to try some of these ideas. The lives you save could be those of your own family.

Read up on these terms:

  • gut microbiome
  • intestinal dysbiosis
  • human parasitology
  • bifidobacterium in humans
  • kitchen cures from grandmas gone by
  • good health & wellness starts in your gut, your kitchen, and not the pharmacy
  • adrenal fatigue and endocrine disrupters
  • antibiotic effects on
    • aging
    • metabolism
    • endocrinology
    • gut balance
    • homeostasis
  • prebiotics and probiotics
  • deep sleep while lighting is turned off

Later on, I may revise this work with deep studies on causal effects that we can better address in our lives. This is enough now for all my loved ones. 

Take good care, and watch out for tailgaters and gang-stalkers.

P.S.  Here's a glimpse at "how deep the proverbial rabbit hole goes" if I really broaden things out both far and wide:

Causal Factors

Definition of Causal Factors

Causal factors are significant, unplanned, and unintended contributors to an incident or negative occurrence. These factors, if eliminated, would either prevent the incident from happening entirely or reduce its severity and frequency. The term encompasses various elements associated with human performance or safety management systems, which can be broken down into direct causes, root causes, and contributing causes or extenuating factors.

Importance of Identifying Causal Factors

Identifying causal factors is crucial for industries as it allows them to understand the underlying reasons for incidents. By recognizing these factors, organizations can develop effective strategies to prevent similar events from occurring in the future. This process involves a thorough analysis of the circumstances surrounding an event to pinpoint what went wrong and why.

Examples of Causal Factors

For instance, in industrial settings such as oil and gas operations, pipeline ruptures may occur due to several causal factors. A faulty electrical wiring system could lead to a fire; here, the faulty wiring is the direct cause while inadequate maintenance might be identified as the root cause. Contributing causes could include the age of the building or improper installation practices.

In another example related to pipeline integrity, corrosion or damage may result from insufficient maintenance or inspection protocols. Additional contributing factors might include environmental conditions like soil composition or weather patterns that affect pipeline durability.

Methods for Identifying Causal Factors

To effectively identify causal factors associated with an incident, several systematic approaches can be employed:

Root Cause Analysis (RCA): This method involves asking a series of “why” questions until reaching the fundamental cause of an issue.

Fishbone Diagram (Ishikawa Diagram): A visual tool that categorizes potential causes into different categories such as people, processes, equipment, and environment.

CLC Analysis: This technique analyzes the life cycle of an event chronologically to identify key events and their corresponding causal factors.

5 Whys Technique: Involves repeatedly asking “why” (typically five times) to drill down to the root cause of a problem, provided human attitudes don't fly in the face of loving care.

These methods require a structured approach and a commitment to investigating deeper underlying issues rather than merely addressing surface-level symptoms.

Causal Factor Charting

Causal factor charting is also known as fault tree analysis and involves creating a diagram that starts with an incident and works backward to identify root causes and contributing factors systematically. The steps involved in this process include defining the issue at hand, identifying outcomes resulting from incidents, determining direct causes based on evidence collected during investigations, identifying contributing factors that led to those direct causes, creating a visual representation through a causal factor chart, analyzing relationships between identified factors, and finally developing preventive measures based on insights gained from this analysis.

By employing these methods effectively within Root Cause Analysis processes, organizations, households, families, etc. can enhance happiness, transparency,  safety performance by preventing future incidents through informed corrective actions.

Blah blah, right?  Alrighty then!

Unruly Behavior

I leave this definition up to you, my readers. May you find your inner peace. Example of unruly behavior that is awash in causality.

Here's the September 18, 2024 Taurus reading from DH, which I pasted in here to illustrate my point above....

Taurus horoscope for Wednesday Sep 18

Learning something new can be challenging, especially if it's something you are not naturally inclined toward. For example, if you are not tech-savvy, just about anything technology-related might be intimidating. In reality, though - for a smart person like you, Taurus - it is the self-consciousness about a learning experience that is the toughest thing of all - and also the most limiting. If you relax and don't worry about being judged, and you apply yourself to studying and then using your newfound knowledge, you will pick up a new lesson quite easily.

    THE ABUNDANCE PARADIGM: WHY AI FORCES A RETHINKING OF MONEY ITSELF — PART 1

    By Ellen Brown on May 11, 2026

    A Universal Basic Income (UBI) has long been proposed as a way to cushion the blow of jobs lost to automation. Under that model, everyone receives a modest monthly payment – enough to cover basic needs and prevent extreme poverty. 

    But Elon Musk has gone further. On April 16, he posted on X:

    Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI.

    Rather than a subsistence stipend, Universal High Income (UHI) would be a level of income allowing ordinary people to live well in a world where machines do most of the work. Musk has also said that AI and robotics are the only things that can solve the massive U.S. debt crisis. 

    That sounds promising, but where will the government get the money to pay the UHI? Critics say any government that tried it would go bankrupt. There are also other concerns, which will be addressed in Part 2 of this article. Here we will look at the financial underpinnings: why UHI is even thinkable, why AI forces a reexamination of how money enters the economy, why the current system cannot scale to meet what is coming, and the implicit transition needed to meet that challenge.

    Why the Current Money System Cannot Scale

    The national debt of the U.S. government just topped $39 trillion. China’s is $18.7 trillion. Japan’s is $8.6 trillion. Those of the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain are each in the multi-trillion-dollar range. Collective global debt now stands at $353 trillion, 305% of the world’s annual economic output. So even if, hypothetically, everything produced in the world in a year were applied toward liquidating the debt, it still would not be enough to pay it all off. 

    In fact the debt can never be repaid, because of the way money currently enters the system. Nearly all of the money supply today is created by banks when they make loans. Banks do not lend their existing capital. The loan itself creates the money. The bank adds the loan amount to the asset side of its balance sheet and balances that sum with the same amount on the liability side. When the borrower withdraws or transfers the funds, either the bank takes them from its reserves in “vault cash” or the Federal Reserve debits the bank’s digital reserve account at the central bank. But the lending bank typically has funds coming into its reserve account at about the same rate as they are going out, so its reserves are continually replenished. Thus a very small reserve account can support a much larger money creation engine. For decades before the Fed discontinued the reserve requirement in 2020, it hovered at around 10%.

    The chief problem with this debt-based system is the interest, which the bank does not create in its original loan. For a typical long-term loan, interest can double the total tab or more. Where is the money to come from to pay this added liability? Across the system as a whole, it must either come from more borrowing or from existing funds. In the case of governments, that means issuing interest-bearing bonds or tapping taxes and other revenues. The interest on the debt compounds, meaning the government is paying interest on interest. This makes the debt increase exponentially, until it is mathematically unsustainable. Then bankruptcies occur, of banks or even whole governments. Booms turn into busts, and the cycle begins again.

    Today, interest on the federal debt is the second largest budget line item after Social Security, exceeding $1 trillion. Meanwhile, workers are losing jobs to AI/robotics, shrinking the income tax base. The system is clearly unsustainable.

    How to Raise Demand to Scale to the Upcoming Supply

    A Universal High Income would replenish the shrinking tax base by replacing the lost wages of unemployed workers. But where will the money come from to pay the UHI? The only sustainable solution is for the government to issue it interest-free. That does not mean through the Federal Reserve, which creates money in the same way banks do: it buys federal interest-bearing securities with accounting entries. The Fed collects the interest, which it is supposed to return to the Treasury after deducting its costs. But since 2008, its costs include paying interest on the reserves of its participating banks, which consumes its profits. (See my earlier article here.) 

    The only interest-free, debt-free solution that will actually increase the money supply sufficiently to match the projected productivity of AI/robotics is for the money to be issued directly by the Treasury.

    This is not a radical new idea. It is authorized in the U.S. Constitution, which provides in Article 1, Sec. 8, that “The Congress shall have Power To … coin Money [and] regulate the Value thereof .…” Abraham Lincoln used government-issued “Greenbacks” to avoid a crippling debt to British-backed bankers. Debt-free government-issued money was also the funding mechanism by which the American colonists succeeded in creating a thriving economy and liberating themselves from the oppressive yoke of the British Empire.

    In his 1729 pamphlet “A Modest Inquiry into the Nature and Necessity of a Paper-Currency,” Benjamin Franklin argued that a lack of currency was a tax on industrious farmers and producers, and that a reliable, locally issued paper currency was the “oil” for the gears of trade. The “Nature and Necessity” of this currency was to facilitate the movement of goods between neighbors. Franklin observed that the British strategy of keeping the colonies short of cash was a method of economic suppression. By forcing the colonies to use gold and silver, which were constantly drained back to London to pay for imports, the Crown kept the colonies in a state of permanent debt and low productivity. When the money supply matched the productive capacity of the people, universal prosperity resulted without inflation. 

    This logic evolved into the “American System of Political Economy” championed by Henry Carey, economic advisor to Abraham Lincoln. He wrote:

    Two systems are before the world… One looks to pauperism, ignorance, depopulation, and barbarism; the other in increasing wealth, comfort, intelligence, combination of action, and civilization. … One is the English system; the other we may be proud to call the American system, for it is the only one ever devised the tendency of which was that of elevating while equalizing the condition of man throughout the world.

    In the context of the 21st century, the “oil” that best lowers the friction of trade is debt-free government-issued money similar to Lincoln’s Greenbacks and colonial scrip. Rather than implementing a radical financial innovation, we would be returning to our roots.

    Inflation or Deflation?

    The chief objection to the colonies’ paper “scrip” was that they tended to over-print, so that “demand” (money) outstripped supply. Too much money chasing too few goods produced price inflation. But in the 21st century, we will soon have the opposite problem: too little money chasing too many goods. Machines don’t need food, clothing, shelter, transportation, medical treatment or other services. So who will buy those goods and services? 

    Money needs to be issued to human consumers, and not just to a few wealthy human consumers serving as debt brokers thriving on interest. To create sufficient demand for the voluminous output of AI/robotics, it needs to go to the whole national population, evenly distributed. Not only can UHI work in that sort of abundant supply without producing price inflation; it is actually essential to prevent deflation.

    In a conversation on X, Musk wrote:

    In a normal economy, issuing more money simply increases the dollar price of the existing output of goods & services, meaning people do NOT get more stuff. If AI/robotics massively increase goods & services output, then you actually MUST issue dollars to people or there will be massive disinflation. 

    As paraphrased on Yahoo Finance (reposted from Benzinga), Musk wrote that handing out more dollars becomes a problem only when the economy’s supply of goods and services fails to surge alongside the money supply. His claim is that AI and robotics could lift production so sharply that the bigger risk would be falling prices, not rising ones.

    But aren’t falling prices a good thing? In this case, no. Prices would be falling due to a lack of demand, meaning producers can’t find customers for their products. They wind up laying off workers and eventually going bankrupt. When spread across the whole economy, the result is a deflationary spiral: prices fall, businesses lose revenue, and the economy contracts, not because production is inadequate but because purchasing power is insufficient. The result is recession or depression. In the Great Depression of the 1930s, food was rotting in the fields while people were starving, because they were out of work and had no money to spend. 

    Job cuts from AI are already happening. According to the same Benzinga article:

    Evidence of near-term strain is showing up in corporate announcements: employers disclosed more than 27,000 job cuts linked to AI in the first quarter of 2026, according to Challenger, Gray & Christmas. The outplacement firm said that figure was up 40% from the same period a year earlier. 

    Robert Reich reports that wages are around two-thirds of the typical corporation’s total cost, and that in the first four months of 2026, big U.S. corporations cut over 128,000 jobs. 

    How Soon Will All This Happen?

    Another Benzinga article, reposted on Yahoo Finance on March 16, detailed Musk’s projected time frame:

    Speaking remotely to the Abundance Summit last week, Musk told XPRIZE founder Peter Diamandis that the global economy is on the verge of an explosion so massive it defies historical precedent.

    “I’d say the economy is 10 times its current size in 10 years,” Musk said, before quickly clarifying that the growth could be even more explosive. “Greater than,” he added, framing the projected shift in economic output as a “fairly comfortable prediction.” …

    Ray Kurzweil, author of The Singularity Is Near, sees AI reaching Artificial General Intelligence (human-level intelligence across virtually all domains) by 2029, and full transformative abundance by 2045.

    Other experts question these time projections, but a radical transformation of traditional manufacturing and trade is likely to happen sometime in the reasonably near future. The question is, will the money system transition soon enough to rescue all the laid-off workers from homelessness and famine?

    The Sovereign Wealth Fund Alternative

    There is another model for distributing the gains of automation, one that can be phased in gradually as the AI workforce expands. It comes from Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI. In an ironic twist, Altman and Musk, who jointly founded OpenAI in 2015, are now locked in a high-profile legal battle over whether Altman diverted Musk’s $44 million investment to transform what was conceived as a nonprofit “for the benefit of humanity” into a highly lucrative for-profit enterprise.

    That dispute aside, Altman’s alternative model for sharing AI-generated wealth is a national sovereign wealth fund seeded by the profits of AI and robotics. His proposed American Equity Fund would take public stakes in the companies and technologies driving automation, capture a portion of the resulting productivity gains, and distribute them as universal dividends. The Fund would not replace a Universal High Income but would complement it.

    This approach has several advantages. It ties payments directly to real output, scales automatically with productivity, and can be introduced gradually, avoiding the shock of issuing large payments before the supply side has fully expanded. It would resemble the Alaska Permanent Fund, which distributes oil revenues to residents, except that here the resource would be the most powerful general-purpose technology since electricity.

    Conclusion: A New Monetary Logic for a New Productive Era

    For centuries, money has been issued as a claim against the future productivity of human labor, repaid from the income that labor generates. The logic of this debt-based system collapses when machines become the primary producers of goods and services. Then the limiting factor becomes purchasing power — the ability of human beings to access the abundance their own technologies create. That requires a monetary architecture that expands with output rather than debt, and distributes income not through wages alone but through mechanisms tied to the productive capacity of the whole system.

    Universal High Income and a sovereign wealth fund are two ways of doing that. One ensures a stable floor of demand; the other ensures that the public shares in the gains of automation. Both would be grounded in real production. But for the public to have access to those gains, the money supply needs to expand in proportion to the expanding pool of goods and services. This can be done by restoring the innovation our forefathers baked into the Constitution: debt-free money issued by the government itself.

    How to fund a UHI without triggering inflation or driving the government into bankruptcy is the first objection critics raise, but there are others. They argue that people would stop working or stop learning, that society would collapse into idleness or chaos, that life would lose meaning without jobs, that the government would have the power to control how people spend their money.  Will a UHI ring in the promised utopia or lock us into a state-controlled digital prison? Part 2 of this article will address those concerns.

    Many a time I often think about moving to Russia, so sick and tired of living here in the West.

    Over there things get done and child molesters etc don't just get away with a slapped wrist, free to again prey on the innocent.

    Those promoting society's moral decay will now have to answer for their actions also.

    Way to go Mr Putin.
