THE LANGUAGES AND CLASSES OF ECONOMICS
(h/t Jacob Liam Youngman )
In the intellectual division of labor there are those of use who use the discipline of economics as extension of natural law, those for utilitarian purposes, and those for exploitative purposes.
So you will find a host of people like Thiel, Me, and Emil Suric, for whom economics is one of the sciences we rely upon in the pursuit of the evolutionary good – in the absence of dishonesty and conflict. Which is a very low (long) time preference, put to very moral (cooperative) ends. And you will find people like krugman and delong who rely upon economics for high (short) time preference, put to immoral (dysgenic) ends, using it as a means of conflict, and embracing the dishonesty that is possible by the use of quantitative aggregates and cherry picking of measurements.
Within these groups: the Natural Law (Social Science) group that thinks in the long term, the pragmatist group that seeks to use economics within Rule of Law (non-discretionary rule based action) in the medium term, and the short term “we’ll fix it later” Discretionary Rule group – arguments are relatively consistent.
The only difficulty for the common person is that without a ‘label’ that identifies the short dysgenic, medium pragmatic and meritocratic, and the long term meritocratic and eugenic, it’s hard to know which team an economist is playing for.
But again, within each team, it is very, very, obvious what team each of us is playing for.
But since economics has displaced morality as the method of decidability in politics; and because economics has evolved largely as a pseudoscience due to the short-term incentives of the discretionary rulership; and because we live under majority (monopoly) rule, its not possible for us to conduct trades between the short medium and long term ‘classes’.
Realistically the left short female dysgenic underclass and the pseudoscientific priesthoood that rules on their behalf by parasitic transfer of wealth; the aspirational, pragmatic, male meritocratic commercial, financial, and entrepreneurial sector that tries to create wealth, and the conservative, defensive, masculine meritocratic judicial martial and familial sector that tries to preserve wealth that has been accumulated.
So we have a martial and entrepreneurial middle and working class that remain the only moral people remaining. And we have the state, academy, media complex that conspires against the martial and entrepreneurial.
So People like “US” all sound the same. What we lacked was the language to argue honestly, rationally, and empirically against the dysgenic parasitic financialization of rule that uses pseudoscience and propaganda and the state to circumvent natural law and rule of law.
My hope is that as our circle expands from a few dozen to a few hundred that we will produce and distribute that language and through its frequent use, empower the martial, entrepreneurial, working and middle classes to overthrow their dysgenic oppressors.
