I have a few questions for Steve K:

1) is this only a question of "presentation" or are there inherent
non-presentational (i.e. analytical) advantages in the use of systems
engineering flow charts?
2) what do you see as the analytical advantages of systems engineering
tools and differential equations rather than other tools like matrix
algebra and game theory to model capitalist dynamics?
3) what branches of mathematics are best suited for the development of
chaotic models?
4) is capitalism chaotic? Why or why not?
In solidarity, Jerry
