    DEFINITIONS: “BAITING INTO HAZARD” (Seduction)

    Defining a Hazard – “In old English law an unlawful game at dice, those who play at it being called ‘hazardors’. In modern law, any game of chance or wagering.”

    Creating a Hazard – A failure of due diligence in defending others against a hazard you are either aware of or have created. i.e. a failure to cover a well-hole that a child can fall into. Old but common one: refrigerators with locking doors left at junkyards with the door on, so that children can get inside, suffocate, or starve, and die.

    Moral Hazard – When a party with more information about its actions or intentions has a tendency or incentive to behave against the interests of the other party with less information. Usury, Prostitution, and Drugs are the most common moral hazards. The most common topic on law involves insurance schemes, where one is incentivized to commit arson or murder simply because one has insurance on the building or person.

    Defining A Moral Hazard

    The lack of incentive to guard against risk where one is protected from its consequences, lack of incentive to guard against risk where one is protected from its consequences

    In Insurance. The risk, danger, or probability that the event insured against may happen, varying with the circumstances of the particular case.

    In Fire Insurance. The risk or danger of the destruction of the insured property by fire, as measured by the character and interest of the insured owner, his habits as a prudent and careful man or the reverse, his known integrity or his bad reputation, and the amount of loss he would suffer by the destruction of the property or the gain he would make by suffering it to burn and collecting the insurance.

    In Economics. Moral hazard occurs when an entity has an incentive to increase its exposure to risk because it does not bear the full costs of that risk.

    In Tort Law – “A tiger trap presents a hazard not only to the tiger, but to man.”

    In Politics … the entire leftist corpus of freedom from responsibility for scarcity, behavior, and evolutionary consequences.

    Examples of Moral Hazard
    1) If I entice you into buying drugs, I’m baiting you into a hazard, since addiction is a spiral. (Pushers)
    2) If I lend you money or extend you credit to buy alcohol or drugs, creating a vicious cycle of debt and addiction.
    3) If I suggest you might win at gambling (you can’t), that’s baiting you into hazard. (Gambling houses)
    4) If I lend you money or extend you credit to gamble. (Bookies)
    5) If I lend you money at usurious prices that will entrap you in debt cycles. (Loan Sharking)
    6) If I offer you a loan to get what you want under impulse or duress, but I can extract interest from you, and then seize your property in restitution.
    7) If a woman implies access to friendship, affection, or sex, in exchange for goods services favors opportunity – which she will never deliver.
    8) If I promise you life after death if you obey and undermine the upper classes. (Abrahamism)
    9) If I promise you salvation in heaven if you rebel against the government that is trying to create order and prosperity over the next few decades, that is baiting you into a hazard.
    10) If I promise you power and equality if you undermine the political system (Marx)
    11) If I promise you equality if you undermine men (feminism)
    12) If I promise you status if you undermine the status hierarchy (postmodernism)
    13) If I appeal to your morality and pass the hart cellar immigration act. (frankfurt school)
    14) If I promise you equality or socialism when it’s genetics that cause our differences, and you act to destroy your civilization, then that’s all baiting into hazard.
    15) If I promise you the end of whiteness and whites will improve your condition when it is only under whiteness –  meaning sciences – and their rule that has improved your condition, and that your condition reflects that of your ancestors.

    In other words, you are entering into a voluntary exchange that is not in your interests, simply because for whatever reason you are vulnerable to the trap. These are all lies that bait you into hazard (risk and loss).

    R1b1b2a1a1   M467/S29/U198
    This subclade is defined by the presence of the marker U198, also known as S29 and M467. Although attested in southern England and Germany in the region previously inhabited by the Saxons, it is unknown if this marker arrived in England with the Anglo-Saxons in the 5th Century. Only low values of the marker have been detected over a wide area that besides England (1.4%) and Germany (1.8%) includes the Netherlands (maximum value 2.1%), Denmark (0.9%) and Russia (1.8%). The age of U198 is around 2-3,000 years.

    BASIC ECONOMICS: “TYPES OF GOODS”
    In economics and taxation, goods are categorized in various ways to understand their characteristics, utility, and the implications for market behavior and policy. Here’s a comprehensive breakdown of the categories:

    Durable Good
    Definition: Durable goods are goods that do not quickly wear out or yield utility over time rather than being completely consumed in one use.
    Lifespan: Durable goods have a long useful life, typically over three years. Automobiles often have a useful life of several years, making them a prime example of a durable good.

    Capital Good:
    Capital goods are durable goods used in the production of goods or services.
    Taxation: Often exempt from sales tax when purchased for use in manufacturing.

    Intermediate Goods
    Definition: These are goods used in the production of other goods. They are not final products and are subject to further processing.
    Taxation: Often exempt from sales tax when purchased for use in manufacturing.

    Semi-Durable Goods
    Definition: These goods have a lifespan that is longer than non-durables but shorter than durables. Examples include clothing and shoes.
    Taxation: Generally subject to sales tax, with some exemptions depending on the jurisdiction.

    Non-Durable Goods
    Definition: These are goods that are consumed quickly or have a short lifespan, typically less than three years. Examples include food, fuel, and toiletries.
    Taxation: Often subject to sales tax, and sometimes additional excise taxes, depending on the jurisdiction and the type of good.

    Consumer Goods
    Definition: These are goods bought for consumption by the average consumer. They can be further classified into convenience, shopping, specialty, and unsought goods.
    Taxation: Subject to sales tax, with rates and exemptions varying by jurisdiction and type of good.

    Private Goods
    Definition: These are goods that are both excludable and rivalrous. Most consumer goods fall into this category.
    Taxation: Subject to various forms of taxation, including sales, excise, and import duties.

    Veblen Goods (Luxury)
    Definition: These are goods that are perceived as exclusive as their price increases, like luxury cars or designer handbags.
    Taxation: Often subject to luxury taxes in addition to sales taxes.

    Club Goods
    Definition: These are goods that are excludable but non-rivalrous. Examples include private parks or subscription services.
    Taxation: Sales tax applicable, and sometimes subscription fees are also taxed.

    Common-Pool Resources
    Definition: These are goods that are non-excludable but rivalrous, like a public fishing ground.
    Taxation: May be subject to licensing fees or other forms of indirect taxation.

    Public Goods
    Definition: These are goods that are non-excludable and non-rivalrous, meaning that individuals cannot be excluded from use, and use by one individual does not reduce availability to others. Examples include clean air and public parks.
    Taxation: Funded through general taxation but not directly taxed.

    Disambiguation: Empathy > Sympathy > Understanding
    (Three points test a line of causality)

    The terms “empathy,” “sympathy,” and “understanding” are often used in discussions about emotional and cognitive responses to others’ experiences. While they share similarities, they are distinct concepts that operate on different levels of emotional and cognitive engagement. Here’s a comprehensive breakdown:

    Empathy
    Emotional Resonance: Empathy involves feeling what another person is feeling. It’s an emotional alignment that allows you to share someone else’s emotional state.

    Cognitive and Emotional Components: Empathy can be both cognitive (understanding someone’s feelings and the reasons behind them) and emotional (actually feeling what the other person is feeling).

    Action-Oriented: In its most evolved form, known as compassionate empathy, it involves not just understanding and sharing feelings but also being moved to help, if needed.

    Sympathy
    Emotional Distance: Sympathy is feeling for someone, not with them. It’s a form of caring that maintains emotional separation.

    Less Nuanced: Sympathy doesn’t require you to understand or feel the other person’s emotions; it’s a more general feeling of concern.

    External Expression: Sympathy is often expressed through external actions, such as offering condolences or sending a sympathy card.

    Understanding
    Cognitive Process: Understanding is a purely cognitive process and doesn’t necessarily involve any emotional component. It’s the ability to grasp the nature, significance, or explanation of something.

    Broad Application: Unlike empathy and sympathy, understanding can apply to concepts, subjects, and phenomena, not just emotions or experiences.

    No Emotional Requirement: You can understand something without feeling any emotional engagement with it. For example, a doctor might understand a patient’s symptoms without feeling empathy or sympathy.

    Comparative Insights
    Depth of Connection: Empathy involves the deepest emotional connection, followed by sympathy, followed by understanding that may involve no emotional connection at all.

    Scope: Understanding has the broadest scope, as it can apply to anything that can be known, not just emotional states.

    Actionability: Empathy is most likely to lead to supportive action because it involves both emotional and cognitive engagement. Sympathy may lead to supportive actions but is less likely to be as nuanced. Understanding alone may not lead to any action unless combined with empathy or sympathy.

    I’ll reframe “psy-op”, as a propaganda method by which to evade our differences in material gains and to justify the concentration of power in the republican state.

    Simple framing. Classical liberalism: “The law should defend the individual against others and the state, and legislation should advance the family over the individual as the first institution of human development within the state.”
