    Philosophy = Choice of preference and good. Science = existence, description and decidability. As such Propertarianism only states how to measure aesthetic content. However, there is a difference between that which is true, good, and preferable. You may not prefer the truth. 😉

    INDIVIDUALISM IS A “WEASEL WORD”

    Sovereignty can be tested by violations of interests that we categorically refer to as Property in Toto. A man is sovereign or he is not. He can demonstrate reciprocity in sovereignty or the cannot.

    Individualism, like non aggression, is just a weasel word for not defining the scope of interests against which one cannot impose costs, and the institutional means by which such a condition is created and preserved, against competition from those with different intentions.

    Sovereignty is an empirically testable definition. Individualism is just a means of weaseling out of a testable definition and thereby preserving means of deception.

  • OPERATIONAL LANGUAGE EXPRESSING SCIENCE: THE LEAST FALSE METHOD OF REACHING ROME

    OPERATIONAL LANGUAGE EXPRESSING SCIENCE: THE LEAST FALSE METHOD OF REACHING ROME

    —“Science is both the method of inquiry and the body of knowledge gained by that method’s application. A priori knowledge applies only to the abstract, once it interacts with the real world the test of any tool or paradigm is how effective it is in predicting and changing it. As there’s only one real world, any framework or method of inquiry that is effective in interfacing with it will approach the same results. All roads lead to Rome, as it were.”—Jason Johnson

    >Curt Doolittle ^ This is the most important argument really. Although I would refine it to say ‘there is only one most parsimonious (shortest) road to Rome.’

  • Debt Relationships Are the Sources of Duties

    by Zachary Miller Relationships between persons are the sources of a person’s duties. A parent has duties to a child by virtue of their natural relationship to one another. And the adult is identified as a parent by virtue of their duties to the child, as people are rather defined by their duties to others. A debtor similarly has duties to a creditor by virtue of their relationship in contract. And the debtor is defined by his duty to pay his debts. And a tortfeasor has duties to his victim by virtue of their relationship in tort. And the tortfeasor is defined by his duty to make restitution.
