My blog, misaligned markets is named so because market capitalism has caused markets to become misaligned from the purpose they're supposed to serve. But what is misalignment?

Read about Aristotle's great insight about greed and how it applies to everything from money to climate change.

Beyond greed: Mammon as an analogy for maloptimization and wicked problems

Analogies are fundamental to how humans navigate abstractions. "Mammon” is how I refer to the tendency for technology, social policy, and other goal-oriented human action to give rise to seemingly paradoxical and unintended consequences.
