NATURAL RIGHTS
Natural “rights” are those legal rights of appeal for defense or restitution with which productive men must warranty they insure one another in order to resist the natural ‘wrongs’ that man demonstrates when unproductive.
Rights are those actions we insure one another against by collective action when they are violated. But the means of violation is always the same: the imposition of costs upon others, rather than engaging in productive activities.
This lack of including the requirement for productivity, which was obvious to men of property, was an obvious requirement of nature, and therefore a natural law not needing insurance, but one insured by nature herself. An unproductive man in the company of productive men need not be judged by men unless he imposes a cost upon them. His failure of productivity is a judgement passed against him by nature.
Women circumvented this principle and with it destroyed aristocratic, egalitarian, western civilization.
The Russians and Chinese bought the Great Lie of Communism. Americans bought the Great Lie of Neo Puritanism. These were the great lies.
The answer was very simple: just keep on with what we were doing and create new houses for women and the working classes, and preserve our ancient monarchies, and our ancient rule of law.
Napoleon was the first catastrophe. He started the ball rolling. He was the first plunderer of Europe since the Muslims Sacked Rome. And he broke our relative peace.

NOMOCRACY: RULE OF LAW AND MARKET GOVERNMENT ARE THE ONLY ALTERNATIVE
Markets in everything: A Market for Goods and Services(“Capitalism”), A Market for Commons (“Government”), A Market for Dispute Resolution (“Rule” – and independent judiciary under the one law of property).
The care-taking of the unable and the requirement of self support for reproduction. Imposing costs upon others is antithetical to civilization – eradication of it is the purpose of civilization. While insurance against the vicissitudes of nature is necessary for risk, the guarantee of dependence is mere theft by intention not accident.
Communism Fails (authority). Democratic Socialism Fails(democracy). Libertinism Fails(individualism).
The only solution is MARKET GOVERNMENT. And market governance requires rule of law.

(important concept) [A]ll conflicts are commensurable and decidable, therefore objective morality objectively exists. The counter proposition is that conflcits are not logically decidable by any means. When one says objective (necessary and natural) morality doesn’t exist, what one means instead, is that despite the existence of objective decidability, therefore objective morality, that no group in fact practices objective, necessary, natural, morality, and instead practices a portfolio of norms that they cast as moral, just as we cast natural (natural, necessary) law, legislation, and regulation as law when in fact only natural, necessary law is objectively extant law. The rest is the work of man. Natural numbers, natural morality, and natural laws exist out of necessity. All else is the arbitrary work of man for his local convenience.
—“If practicing “natural morality” will kill a man, or even merely diminish him in wealth, status, or some other measure, then it is just as natural that he will not practice it. This is the origin of conflict.”—Eli Harman

[T]here is a very great difference between government and rule.
I am not sure all peoples can easily generate judges capable of rule by rule of law. Although wth sufficient training it appears largely possible. I do not think other peoples should participate in the selection of a commons for a people, only in the prevention of privatization of commons, or the socialization of losses into commons. In this sense, colonialism is very different from adjudication. And my feeling is that most nations would benefit from hiring judges. And most would benefit from not being colonized. Rule of law works over time. Law is a science. The production of commons is an extension of the family. It can only grow with the people themselves.

[I] have no problem defending or ruling other peoples. These are both moral and costly. I have a problem with governing other people. And profiting from it. Why? Because defense and rule of law are universal truths. Governing: producing commons, are preferences and strategies. I consider that none of even the most enlightened people’s business. And worse, beyond their capacity.

It’s very simple. Is the information sufficient or must I add it? (The Axiom of Choice)
