The World is a complex thing. Anyone looking to manage it... is going to wind up being enslaved by it; one way or another, sooner or later. A lot of bronc-busters and skilled wranglers have come down The Pike over the centuries. They... mostly... all got thrown... and a good many of them wound up under the hooves because... The World is a rampaging beast on occasion and you never know what might set it off.

Sometimes, The World is docile for a while, but... it gets hungry and horny at regular intervals, so... as long as you are of a mind to stay on a schedule, and cooperate, The World won't start kicking the stalls or... getting too frisky when you want to take it for a ride, and... yeah... let's look at The World as a wild horse or a bull in the pasture (or the wild). It's something big that can also get ornery if you irritate it or... its needs aren't met.

This won't concern you... unless you are looking to tame that horse or bull or... you have to take care of it. If you know what you are doing, and especially if you are a horse or bull whisperer, you can get something... much larger and considerably more powerful than you... to do what you want it to (most of the time), BUT... it will ALWAYS be a trade-off of some sort. So... you are going to have to make deals or... enter into arrangements... that's just how it goes. It can get extraordinarily complex.
