How to Calculate the Values of the Structural Constants

It's natural for the speed of light to be one, because it tells you by how much spatial coordinates have rotated into time. So I think in a stroke, one can account for the values of the structural constants. And that's true, I think, of the tax constant, which we can find being one,. That has consequences for what we mean by mass, kilograms. It follows from the special relativity, if you write, that if the C must be one. And then everything else follows. But they do perhaps change with time, and it depends on the epoch - depending on which force we're talking about or how it is involved.
