    (FB 1553441775 Timestamp) IN CASE YOU MISSED IT … FRAMES OF PEOPLES (important) (read this) Continental vs Scandinavian vs Anglo thought, (vs Latin and Orthodox thought for that matter). —“It’s just been a challenge suggesting to [Curt] that declarative constructs are not how morality is actually processed.”–Josh Jeppson It’s not how it’s processed. I agree. Its however how it is CALCULATED. (a) this is forever going to be a debate between occult semitic supernatural, the continental(german) phenomenalistic and the scientific (scandinavian) anglo, and as far as I know tells us nothing other than the amount of time under semitic (church) influence (rule) and the demand for obedience between island (scandinavian/athenian naval security), and territorial (germanic/spartan army vulnerability), or the imperial (Roman Anglo/Germanic-American power confidence) (b) So the demand for Scientific Rules of Dispute resolution (American), Conformity of Values(Scandinavian), and Conformity of Thought value and deed (German), is determined by the environment for certain. By habituation (tradition) over time out of consequence. By genetics over longer time by rates of reproduction and eugenic suppression. (c) And while we EVOLVE a system to satisfy that demand (cheap law of engineering, more expensive law of norms, and very expensive law of thought word and deed), the system of rules one implements need not be limited to the means under which it evolved, any more than reason, measurement (math) and science (testimony) need be limited to those who evolved it. (d) My understanding is that one writes law (science) by calculation, one teaches norms (public experience) by imitation of rules, and one indoctrinates into thoughts (education) by parable. ie: Specific Formulae, General Rules, Loose Parables. (e) we develop ‘values’ in response to internal trust and external security. These are adaptations. A russian, a Pole, an Italian, a Frenchman, a German, a Dane, an Anglo, an Australian, and an American develop values suited to our condition. However, we assumed these are CHOSEN, and we assume their method of communication must be non-rational. Neither is true.

Of course both corruption and black markets form in both american and soviet models. However, whether soviet or american nothing other than rule of law and universal standing can stop the accumulation of rents in the state an its dependents whether private or public. We always get it wrong: markets are good, serfdom is a good, and armies(servitude) is a good, since series markets, mixed markets, and servitude solve the problems of innovation and adaptation, market limitations, and non-market activity. And the only way to govern them is the competing markets of opportunity and dispute: the markets for the KIND of organization, versus the courts under the natural law of reciprocity REGARDLESS of organization.

    (FB 1553641065 Timestamp) The axis of Evil is DC (political 6.3m), NY (Financial 23m) Boston (8m) and LA (Propaganda 13m). Everything else depends upon the cycle of DC Borrowing, NY Profiting, LA Propagandizing. And all of that is very easy to fix. Starve the parasites. Starve the parasites by starving their food source. Their food source is the federal government. Break that and divide it to the states and we will see the states of the USA turn into the old states of europe in one generation.

    (FB 1553712231 Timestamp) I would have a hard time choosing who to vote for. I wouldn’t trust either Tymoshenko or Poroshenko, but at this point it’s a safer bet to change to Tymoshenko, given how much of a failure Poroshenko’s been at rule of law. Tymoshenko with the Right might be able to do a better job on corruption. (And hell, when I heard her speak in Maidan it sure worked for me.) The Oprah Candidate (The Comedian): —“The 41-year-old, who is best known for playing the lead in the political comedy, Servant of the People, has about 25 percent of the voters’ support – well ahead of Poroshenko (almost 17 percent) and Tymoshenko (more than 18 percent). According to the non-governmental polling organisation Rating Group, the majority of Zelensky’s supporters are young people between 18 to 25 years old and live mostly in the Russian-speaking parts of Ukraine, the southern and eastern regions.”— Thea means the ukrainian vote is split, and the russian vote is not. That’s what it means. As far as I can tell.

    HOW WE DESTROY OUR CIVIL SOCIETY

    by Curt Doolittle

    As someone who has gone from middle class to 1%’er and retired in his 40’s, money was absolutely no use to me OTHER than signal value.

    For people with limited ability, money reduces stress. For those of us with ability it does nothing. I have seen no evidence to date that anything over median + 20% produces increased happiness. All we do is purchase cars, homes, and vacations with greater signal value.

    The primary value of money is (UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTH WARNING:) to separate yourself from people you don’t want to be around – because we have no right of voluntary disassociation.

    This is, in my opinion, the primary problem of multiculturalism: it is not possible to separate EXCEPT by economic cost, which means we abandon the middle, lower middle, working, and laboring classes to association with undesirables.

    In other words, we cannot judge people by their character and therefore admit them to schools, neighborhoods and businesses (or politics) but we simply put economic sorting in place which because of immigration destroys our middle and working classes. Involuntary Association Is Not A Market Action nor is it commensurable with the Natural Law of Reciprocity. Nor peaceful harmonious coexistence.

    THE SUPERPOWER

    If Philosophy helped you in life and business, The Natural Law will be a superpower by comparison.

    Yes, its work. But it’s not harder than learning geometry or basic programming as far as I can tell. And other than it’s falsificationary, equilibrating, and reciprocal, rather than ‘justifiationary’ it’s a bit more intuitive.

    But man. Learning how to convert from justification to falsification, equilibration, and reciprocity is … well, it’s gotta be turned into a habit. And a habit requires repetition.

    And that means ‘lots of case studies’.

    Ie: writing lots of law.

    Dear immigrants.

    Just as we say to alcoholics and drug users, “No matter where you go, there you are”. To immigrants we say “No matter where you and your people go, there you and your people are.” You and Yours. No matter where you go, there you are. You bring with you your genes, your culture, family, your values, your way of life, and you wonder why your people fail: Genes, Culture, Values, Family, Way of Life

    What is it that makes northern european civilization ‘work’ and yours not?

    The Uniqueness of the West:

    – Rule of Law by the One Law of Reciprocity.

    – – – Productive,

    – – – Fully informed,

    – – – Warrantied and

    – – – Free of negative effect upon others.

    – Bearing Burdens Regardless of Cost:

    – – – Truth before Face to self, kin, or hierarchy regardless of cost.

    – – – Persistent Maintenance and Defense of the Commons regardless of cost.

    – – – Defense of all others regardless of station, relation, and cost.

    – – – Heroism in all matters civic, political, and military regardless of cost.

    – – – Silence beyond arm’s reach regardless of cost.

    – – – Staying out of the way of the path of movement, not asking others to move around you.

    – – – Situational Awareness and Responsibility, not disregard for the conditions around you.

    – – – Obedience to laws of conformity.

    – Self Sufficiency

    – – – Market Meritocracy

    – – – Natural Hierarchy: Natural Aristocracy

    – The Absolute Nuclear Family.

    – – – Delaying Marriage until you can afford your own home.

    – – – Bearing children only once you can afford to pay for them

    – Aristotelian Science

    – – European Paganism and Heathenism.

    – – – European Christianity.

    Democracy is a temporary luxury of economic windfalls from military conquest of new territory or peoples. Period.

    Multiculturalism is imperialism and creates demand for imperial governments. Period.

    The middle east is the only multicultural society and it is the very example of why they all fail.

    South america, the middle east, and india are the examples of genetic admixture: it devolves to the mean.

    We are equal under the law of conflict resolution. Otherwise we are not equal in the least.

    Jewish, muslim, asian, and pacific ethics fail these tests. Greek, southern italian and Balkan ethics this fail these tests.No country has ever recovered from islam. Ever.

    The west and far east are uniquely eugenic rather than equalitarian or egalitarian. it is this practice of eugenics that has risen our people out of the ignorance superstition poverty disease and hard labor of the other peoples.

    You are making a civil war.

    We are happy to rule you.

    But we will never be ruled BY you.

  • HOW IT’S DONE WITH ELEGANCE by Ferdinand Pizarro The satisfaction of preferences

    HOW IT’S DONE WITH ELEGANCE

    by Ferdinand Pizarro

    The satisfaction of preferences tend toward equilibrium in that the utility produced by the marginal satisfaction of preferences is never exceeded by the marginal cost of satisfying the preference.

    Markets for goods & services function to ensure equilibrium in private-consumption of consumer-goods & by extension allocative efficiency in capital markets through the production of price signals–via positva satisfaction of preference; whereas the market for rule & commons ensures equilibrium by incrementally suppressing the satisfaction of preference at the expense of peers & commons­–via negativa elimination of externality.

    Ergo, the law performs as a signaling function for the cost of preference to society (commons), allowing for the optimal satisfaction of preference under the constraint of strict-reciprocity.

    — CURTD —

    Curt Doolittle just going to walk thru this carefully because you usually have something very smart to say….

    —“The satisfaction of preferences tend toward equilibrium in that the utility produced by the marginal satisfaction of preferences is never exceeded by the marginal cost of satisfying the preference.”—

    Perfect.

    —Markets for goods & services function to ensure equilibrium in private-consumption of consumer-goods & by extension allocative efficiency in capital markets through the production of price signals–via positva satisfaction of preference; whereas the market for rule & commons ensures equilibrium by incrementally suppressing the satisfaction of preference at the expense of peers & commons­–via negativa elimination of externality. “—

    That’s perfect. I use “goods, services, and information” now rather than just “goods and services”.

    —“Ergo, the law performs as a signaling function for the cost of preference to society (commons), allowing for the optimal satisfaction of preference under the constraint of strict-reciprocity.”—

    Perfect.
