If I ever take the PMP test...
"When I took it, some 11 years ago or so, I did self-study (Rita Mulcahy materials) and participated in a monthly study group at my previous job...
Rita passed away some years ago but the company she founded, RMC Learning Solutions, continues to produce courseware."

Scarcity, abundance and tunneling
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2013/09/13/being-poor-changes-your-thinking-about-everything/
* Study showing after 6 months after being debt free, without other intervention street vendors go back into the same problem they were having before
* With time, you have too much abundance at first. You need to make distant things (like deadlines) seem more immediate.

* If you take tunneling, then the best incentives are those positively impact the tunnetl - that make you do the right long term thing by impacting your choices in the tunnel.

Steve's verses on Old Testament taxes
From Steve Converse's outline on 9/17/2017
Direct taxes
Direct taxes
- Levite's tithe - 1/10, paid to support Israel's theocratic government (Lev 27:30)
- Festival tithe - annual tax used for cultivating national life (Deut 12:10-19)
- Welfare tithe - once every 3 years, used to support welfare services (Deut 14:29)
- Temple tax - annual half-shekel tax on men 21+ for tabernacle/temple (Ex 30:14)
Indirect taxes
- Gleaning tax - leave some in the field to be gleaned by the poor (Lev 19:10)
- 7th year fallow tax - any crops were left first for the poor and then livestock (Ex 23:10-11)
