Trust is a core axis of this thesis, not a footnote. High capital with low trust is exactly the pattern the Suppression Weight is built to surface — the Dharma Zone is where capital and trust move together.
LATENTlow capital · high trust
Trust is high but capital hasn’t arrived yet — the upside the thesis chases.
DHARMA ZONEhigh capital · high trust
Capital and community trust move together — the healthy target state.
SUPPRESSEDlow capital · low trust
Both capital and trust are held down — the starting condition suppression creates.
EXTRACTIVEhigh capital · low trust
Money is flowing in but the community doesn’t trust it — value is pulled out, not built.
v1 placeholder calibration (rho=0.80, ceiling=100). No headlineBand pinned (no external pitch value supplied); the engine derives the band from mean confidence. cc=33 reflects Belle Glade/Pahokee's standing among the poorest municipalities in Florida (poverty rates several multiples of the Palm Beach County average) compounded by the historic reputational/health-stigma burden of the 1985-86 AIDS epidemiology and the ongoing, litigated environmental-justice burden of sugarcane field burning. HOLC / Mapping Inequality residential-security maps do not cover Belle Glade or Pahokee — HOLC only graded larger metro areas in the 1930s, and these are small rural agricultural towns — so no redlining-legacy factor is asserted here; this record leans instead on the environmental (`env`), economic (`econ`), and health (`health`) factors, each independently sourced. lat/lng (26.754, -80.666) approximate the midpoint between Belle Glade (~26.6845, -80.6676) and Pahokee (~26.8237, -80.6653), the two anchor towns of this joint record. quadrant.capital/trust are a qualitative placement, refine with the content owner. This research pass had no live web-fetch/API tool available; citations are drawn from well-established, extensively publicly reported facts rather than a live database pull — see the file header and the receipts doc for the full sourcing-method note.
