This idea and determination of value is represented by the concept of the Consequence of Being, which represents the human assessment of the Consequence and value of any entity as it exists in the present, as compared to a changed state in future, which requires its transformation or destruction. For instance the value of the woods which now exists, that must be transformed and destroyed, for and as compared to the shopping mall which will replace it. Or one could say, the value of cow, as compared to one's next steak. Every individual who makes economic decisions, by design or default, makes an individual determination as to the Consequence of Being of all they consume, but of whom is almost no-one.

CONSERVATIVE / PROGRESSIVE DICHOTOMY

The distinction between the determined Consequence of Being of pre-existent, as compared to the tandem states changed, is described here as representing the difference between the concepts of Conservative and Progressive.

The terms Conservative and Progressive represent the human perspective of change, as two opposed determinations, concerning the value of any given pre-existent state, as compared to the changed state which replaces it. Conservative is defined as an evaluation, wherein any given pre-existent state possesses Consequential Integrity, such that its transformation or destruction is limited or prohibited, for any alternative condition. The forest is of greater importance than any products made from it, or the church is more important than the chain store slated to replace it. Progressive is defined as an evaluation, that the creation of progressed or so-called superior qualities & conditions, explains and justify's the transformation or destruction of any given pre-existent state. Wood products are more important than the trees that they come from, or the economy generated, by a new chain store is more important than a religious or historical building.
