    Any and all communication across wires and between states is under the regulation of the governmet for very very good reasons.

    So if twitter was a carrier no issue. But they aren’t. THey’re a publisher, and as such, by virtue of both infrastructure and
    influence regulable.

  • In P-Law Whose Money Do You Want to Waste?

    Mar 9, 2020, 1:28 PM

    —“I think an interesting idea as a prerequisite to being able to take someone to court for a violation of reciprocity under P-law would be the requirement that they show up to court “in propria persona” or “pro se,” or more succinctly, no more attorneys. Don’t kill them as Shakespeare suggested, just make it unlawful for them to show up in court except to represent themselves and their own interests.”—

    (good). Or go the other way: use the british method of a barrister, which won’t take a case from solicitor(lawyer) unless it has merit. So in the british model they have, in our terms, professional prosecutors for both sides. In america we have a lot of lawyers and a few prosecutors. It’s more ‘common law’ to take your route. It requires more judges with more skill but yes it will work. I’m not settled on the more adversarial american, or the less dishonest british. What I like about your position is that it’s cheap. What I like about their position is that it’s expensive. I think the judge-judy shows of the world illustrate how ignorant the public is of their own wrong doing. So it depends on whose time we want to waste on idiots: their own money with lawyers, or our money with the court’s.

  • Two Topics. Constitutionality, Taxation Methods

    —“Is not the graduated income tax (communist manifesto) that is dysgenic? Also worth noting: the Supreme Court in Pollack v. Farmers Loan Trust Co. in 1895 ruled the income tax unconstitutional.”—Scott De Warren

    I. Constitutionality of the Income tax. … 1. the court did its job by correctly ruling that according to the constitution, the federal government could not enact any tax that was not apportioned to the states by population (a flat tax). … 2. The constitution did it’s job correctly by forcing the legislature to pass a constitutional amendment permitting the income tax. … 3. The legislature did its job correctly by passing a constitutional amendment through the amendment process. … 4. The states did their jobs by passing the constitutional amendment through the amendment process. I do not see the problem with the income tax per se, but with the amount of it, and the uses that it was put to. So the income tax is a slippery slope. The answer to the slippery slope is quite simple – if it redistributes reproduction downward it’s bad. If it constrains reproduction its bad. But that was exactly what the communists wanted – underclass paradise parasitic extraction from the meritocratic classes thereby reversing the benefits of thousands of years of eugenic practices by our ancestors. II. Taxes … 1. a graduated income tax is fine if it’s outside the reproductive cost curve. In other words, if it doesn’t affect reproduction. … 2. A flat tax regulates taxation best by keeping it low … 3. Fees rather than taxes eliminate discretion. … 4. Direct economic voting controls the misuse of fees. … 5. This combination of taxes forces the construction of voluntary commons (civil society). a. Commons are by nature always redistributive (flat fees). b. Income Taxes are by nature redistributive of benefits. c. Flat taxes by their nature redistribute burden. d. Fees by nature meritocratic. The answer is fees. Keeping an account of all inputs and outputs per person would provide evidence necessary for policy. Having each generation pay for the rearing of their children, and children paying for the retirement and care of their parents creates eugenic incentives. Ending false-education and credit-financialization so you (a) pay for children when young, (b) save when mature, (c) are independent when aged, and (d) insured by your children, (e) passed on your inheritance to them in toto as compensation, would restore the intergenerational system of building healthy families of sufficient size and restoring long term thinking to the polity, rather than all this short term consumer consumptionism. There is a reason that the left suppresses data collection that would show white men > 35 and < 65 support the entirety of the population, and that women consume 70% of resources, and spend 70% of income such that this is an incredibly unequal system of benefits in favor of women. The P-Constitution does all this.

  • No It”s Just a Normal Tort Case – Parents Don”t Have Special Privilege

    —“Curt, is this interesting or am I reading too much into it? From what I’ve read on UK property rights (past and present), the idea that pleas of injustice or “hey, no fair” could overrule the express wishes of the property owner is a significant shift away from the standard individualist approach to ownership rights. This is a move towards collectivist, ‘property is owned by the extended family’ principles.”— @lisa outhwaite

    No it’s a normal tort case, wherein a man spent his life working on a farm under the oft discussed promise he would inherit it, and the family broke the demonstrated contract.

    —“”Andrew’s parents put in place a series of measures which were designed to leave Andrew, in his fifties, with no home, no job, no savings, and no pension, despite a lifetime’s worth of work.”— —“his parents went back on promises they had made that he would inherit a substantial share of the family farm, which he had worked on for 32 years since the age of 16.”—

    In other words, if you and your parents stop talking to one another for some reason, well, sure they can will inheritance to anyone they choose. But if they stop talking that doesn’t break the contract that both parties invested in regardless of whether they are parents.
