What I mean is the system of exchange that GR attributes to "Them", the
System that says tormenting, torturing,  killing 10,000 slaves is a small
price to pay for  a few dozen A4 rockets (the System that manages to
convince engineers like Pokler that it's OK to ignore that suffering in
order to advance their technological project), the System that says it's OK
to rape Mother Earth and deplete irreplaceable resources for short-term
profits that line the pockets of a few, & etc. GR seems to lay out this
sort of "moral economy" quite clearly, and it crosses national boundaries.
