Distributions of Life-Concerns by Productive Power

• MI2 quantifies people's Life-Concerns in 3 categories: Desires, Aversions, and Powers
• The charts below show how people's Life-Concerns were distributed over their Productive Powers (News Categories) in 2012
• High-Attention Desires measure the High-Attention people fixed on unfulfilled Desires (e.g., concerns about the lack of Money, Freedom or Truth)
• High-Attention Aversions measure the High-Attention people fixed on excessive Aversions (e.g., concerns about excessive Slavery, Deceit, or Debt)
• High-Attention Powers measure the High-Attention people fixed on powers that hindered/enhanced the fulfilment of Desires or increased/decreased the Aversions (e.g., concerns about Bankers, the Law, Justice, Trade, Religion, Technology, etc.)
• News Categories are the Productive Nexuses, Systems, or Powers (Productive Systems include Governments, Banks, the Financial System, Protests, Debt, etc.)
