A [[Consumerium:Itself|Consumerium]] '''intermediate channel page''', e.g. for [[friendly retail]] | A [[Consumerium:Itself|Consumerium]] '''intermediate channel page''', e.g. for [[friendly retail]] is an [[intermediate page]] that details every [[comprehensive outcome]] of buying any [[Consumerium:intermediate commodity page|commodity]], [[Consumerium:intermediate product page|product]], or [[Consumerium:service|service]] from a given '''channel'''. | ||
'''Channel''' relates to the last link in the [[w:supply chain|supply chain]] from [[manufacturer]] to [[consumer]] ie. it is a [[retail]] chain, for simplicitys sake we are going to make the assumption that all [[location]]s of the chain carry the same goods (at least in the begining). It can also be a [[restaurant]], [[bar]] or [[cafe]] | |||
[[Consumerium Services]] manage these in the [[Research Wiki]]. Differences such as the [[packaging]] or [[transport]] method or [[waste disposal]] poilcy mean that the same [[product]] can have a drastically different impact based on how it is bought: consider buying organice rice in bulk that is transported via ship vs. buying it in small packages that are [[FedEx]]ed by air right to your door...! | |||
Such pages help people identify [[healthy signal infrastructure]] concerns and make choices to, e.g. minimize [[tantallum]] use, or maximize [[Consumerium Service access]], or otherwise patronize our friends (and punish our enemies out of business entirely). See [[buy book]] for examples of how this might be done. | Such pages help people identify [[healthy signal infrastructure]] concerns and make choices to, e.g. minimize [[tantallum]] use, or maximize [[Consumerium Service access]], or otherwise patronize our friends (and punish our enemies out of business entirely).

Effectively these pages are about the [[institutional buying criteria]] of the [[Consumerium Governance Organization]] itself, and how it expands operations. Note that we probably are somewhat more forgiving of various bad practices by suppliers essential to build out the infrastructure initially, but that we must swap out bad suppliers for good ones over time. These pages might go away when the [[healthy signal infrastructure]] is stable all over the planet! | Effectively these pages are about the [[institutional buying criteria]] of the [[Consumerium Governance Organization]] itself, and how it expands operations.
