Poor -- disconnected from the flow of money; fewer options -- disconnected from the flow of ideas; not able to move to better territory where the economy actually works -- disconnected from mobility or migratory flow of people; in danger -- disconnected from what some call the flow of security.

The freedom of these "flows" to be exported from the places where there is a great sufficiency, or indeed a surplus, to places where there is a deficit, is a working indicator of how well a place or people is connected with the functional part of the world as a whole.

Establish this kind of connectedness in place of disconnectedness, and prosperity results. Prosperity balms the wounds resulting from being disconnected to the rest of the world.

The recent evacuations of children from the west Texas Fundamentalist Latter-Day Saints compound is a repair of a problem of acute disconnectedness. Those are some wounded people there. We'll have to show them where the balm is. Tw would no doubt remark that eighty-five percent of the FLDS's problems stemmed from its top management, which quite deliberately mandated complete disconnectedness from motivations that look baser by the day.
