KANT’S MONOPOLISM VS PROPERTARIANISM MARKET-“ISM”

Kant wasn’t quite right. Propertarianism explains why. It’s not that we fail to perceive the world accurately. We do. In fact, we perceive all of it that we can act upon – which makes evolutionary sense really. Instead, it’s that we VALUE our perceptions differently. As a monotheist and monopolist, Kant did not understand the division of perception, cognition, knowledge and labor, nor did he understand it’s cause and value. He did not (as 20th century philosophers did not) understand the moral blindness caused by this difference in values. Nor the difference in moral biases as reproductive strategy. Nor did he understand that just as in the market, the information from voluntary exchanges accumulates in prices, that through cooperation across the moral spectrum we gain information necessary for the choice of construction and maintenance of commons. I despise Kant for giving the world a replacement for biblical authority. But thankfully we are no longer bound by the fallacies of monotheism, christianity, monopoly government, nor economic ignorance. And we can now construct governments as a market for commons suitable for complexity and scale beyond our perception, rather than as a monopoly producer of commons limited by our perceptions.
