  • THE EVOLUTION OF …. EVERYTHING MAN USES TO COOPERATE (very important concepts)

    THE EVOLUTION OF …. EVERYTHING MAN USES TO COOPERATE

    (very important concepts) (important piece)

    Weber was right, in that the evolution of civilization was achieved through improvements in various kinds of ‘calculation’ – a term which will not sufficiently convey the depth of importance or meaning to the uninitiated.

    CALCULATION (ability to ‘think’ and plan)

    – Perception, Comparison, Decidability, and Memory

    We are somewhat aware of the vast leaps in Perception, Comparison, Decidability, and Memory: that arose from Writing, Numbers and Arithmetic, Accounting, Mathematics, Calculus, and Statistics (which are different disciplines).

    – Planning (production)

    Those of us who learn economics understand the institutions of Money, Prices, Credit, Interest, Banking, Bonds, Stocks, Financial Insurance, and how they assist us in cooperating at vast scales.

    – Evolution and Equilibria (discovery)

    And some of us are aware of the vast change in human thinking that arose from the concept of evolution (self organizing). This is not limited to biological evolution (information organization in equilibria), but also to economics(information organization in equilibria), but also to the evolution of scientific knowledge (information organization in equilibria) in which knowledge is that which survives from free association, to hypothesis, to theory, and to law;

    – Existence (operational naming)

    And I think fewer people are aware of the vast change in human thinking that arose from the act of programming (existential necessity), and database development (existential dependency),

    – Truth (removal of imagination, error, bias, wishful thinking, and deception)

    and very very few of us are aware of my work in Truth (testimonial organization in equilibria) in which Truth is what survives criticism, and testimony a warranty of due diligence, not a warranty of truth itself, and ultimate truth merely the most parsimonious statement possible.

    PRODUCTION OF REPRODUCTION

    And some of us in familial organizations:

    – State Enforced Individual Monetary Union (feminism)

    – Nuclear Family, Egalitarian Nuclear

    – Extended Family, Stem Family, Authoritarian Family

    – Traditional Family, Communitarian Family

    – Hetaeristic Monogamy

    – Pairing Family, Serial Marriage

    – Punaluan Family

    – Consanguine Family

    PRODUCTION OF ORGANIZATIONS OF PRODUCTION ITSELF

    And some of us are aware of the evolution in productive organizations:

    – Military Hierarchical (simple production)

    – Bureaucratic Hierarchical (capital production)

    – Professional (talent production)

    PRODUCTION OF ORGANIZATIONS OF PRODUCING COMMONS

    Some of us are aware of the vast difference in state organizations:

    – Authoritarian Socialist Economy. ( Dysgenic – Minimize Holdings )

    – Social Democratic Mixed Economy ( Dysgenic – maximize takings )

    – Private Capitalistic Libertarian Economy (Eugenic – maximize holding)

    WEAPONS OF INFLUENCE IN ORGANIZATION (reputations)

    – Cooperation (ordinary cooperation in the process of production) (personal reputation in memory)

    – Religion (normative promise) (demonstrated behavior) ostracization

    – Law (criminal reputations) (writing and record keeping) Violence

    – Credit (economic reputations) (computers) deprivation of consumption

    – ‘Software Reputations’ (the most detailed yet – the internet) ???? (deprivation of relations)

    DO YOU SEE THE PATTERN?

    We already constitute the equivalent of a hive mind.

    The problem for our collective consciousness is in reducing error.

    And that error is the product of dysgenia.

  • Evolution of Organizing

    [I]’ll add a little context by way of political economy, and say that the world (a)first organized by household and slaves in the agrarian era by kinship relations, then (b) organized militarily and monarchally for the unskilled for the seasonal production cycle with extended relations, (c) then industrially and socialistically for the semi-skilled medium term production cycle of heavy capital and long term medium term relationships between firms, and is (d) currently organizing entrepreneurially and social democratically for the educated ‘discretionary worker’ for short term production cycles, highly distributed capital, and temporary networks of firms wherever it can do so. But meanwhile (a) labor was never of much value in contrast to organizing production, and is of still declining value (b) marginal difference in firms was created by capital, and is now created by talent and creativity, (c) the duration of organizations (firms) has continued to decline along with the duration of networks of production. (d) Those countries playing catch-up will not sustain their growth because (e) institutions (trust and corruption) prevent them from doing so. So good institutions are less valuable than not having bad institutions. Worse, it appears that (f) good genetic capital is not as important as not having bad genetic capital. As France is illustrating, you can reverse the Flynn effect (benefit from transitioning from many individual rules to few simple general scientific principles of universal applicability). We are engaged in the third world war at present, and it has no sign of improvement. And neither temporary networks of production nor the governments that facilitate may be able to survive the combination of a third world war, a slowing of growth, and a continued expansion of population of the underclasses for whom gainful labor is decreasingly available. Not trying to rain on your parade, but the reverse side of the coin is just as frightening as the obverse is inspiring.

  • Parasitism is as Natural as Cooperation: Man Follows Incentives

    [P]arasitism is just as natural as cooperation. And so the function of the law is to discover new forms of parasitism so that the polity can insure one another against the new forms of parasitism. So it is not simply natural to cooperate, it is natural to cooperate as much as incentives allow, and to act parasitically as much as incentives allow. And in almost all cases production is more burdensome than parasitism. So, we create institutions to raise the cost of parasitism such that all incentives favor cooperation. We force everyone to participate in the market in order to survive. And if we don’t grasp this we make the same mistake as the Enlightenment peoples, and in particular the classical liberal libertarians, and the cosmopolitan libertines: that man is good and oppressed, rather than man follows incentives and he needs to be prohibited from parasitism so that his only choice is production. Not just because his participation in production increases productivity, but because his abstinence from parasitism decreases transaction costs, risk, and increases its corollary, trust. In this way, prosperity is created not so much by the emphasis on the good, but on the prohibition of the bad, leaving only good actions available to man.

  • No Race Is Prohibited from Transcendence

    [L]ARGELY BECAUSE OF RATES OF REPRODUCTION, RACIAL DIFFERENCES ARE HORMONAL (NO RACE IS PROHIBITED FROM TRANSCENDENCE ASSUMING CONTROL OF REPRODUCTION OF THE UNDERCLASSES) Lets Stick With Occam’s Razor As far as I can tell, the central problems affecting the Chinese people are (a) lack of verbal intelligence (b) a written and spoken language that does not assist in improving verbal intelligence, (c) hierarchy to compensate for lack of verbal intelligence (d) the perpetuation of Sun Tzu’s central argument for ‘deceive and delay’ in which dishonesty, face, and conflict avoidance are considered good social mores. But if we look at the inability for Chinese to speak the truth, it is in no small part because IT IS EXPENSIVE and VERBALLY DIFFICULT to tell the truth. Now, I generally prefer institutional and normative causes to genetic, just as europeans developed truth telling, individualism, the jury, and polycentrism because of their verbal acumen, it appears that the Chinese developed lying, hierarchy, authority, centralism to compensate for their inability to articulate ideas. We have Chinese Engineers on one side of the spectrum, Jewish lawyers and propagandists on the other, and europeans in the middle – and europeans differ in that they weaponized ‘truth’ rather than either delay and deceive, or cunning verbal deception. Asians can’t drive and have verbal limitations. Africans can drive, but have a problem with verbal and abstract limitations. East asians appear to have larger average cranial capacity and hence better memories and modeling capability. It appears that ashkenazim have more white matter (I am trying to make sure this is correct, but it appears so) as a result of higher exposure to malaria. So my working hypothesis is that we Sapiens vary almost exclusively in growth pattern and hormonal distribution, and that much of this hormonal distribution is in sexual maturity (most african, least east asian), and sexual bias (solipsistic female-verbal, autistic male-spatial). Small things in large numbers have vast consequences. And hormonal variation can create the entire spectrum of homo sapiens behavior. I suspect that science will eventually eliminate all other possibilities and that this will be the final analysis. Curt Doolittle The Propertarian Institute Kiev, Ukraine

    THE OVERBURDEND BOOMER MARRIAGE

    When you are not geographically rooted, not rooted in family, and not rooted in friends and relations, then your spouse, must carry the full burden to providing all relationship needs.

    When you have one child you attempt to achieve perfection with him or her, and can believe the fallacies of the blank slate, versus when you have three to six children and you achieve with your portfolio of offspring the best that you can while realizing that each is born with his or her immutable temperament.

    Change Companies and Careers Not Geography

    Build Relationships rather than Accumulate Things.

    Build portfolios rather than over investments.

    Build family rather than square footage

    WAR: IN THE LONG RUN, ITS THE ECONOMY STUPID

    —“The Soviet Union would have defeated Hitler eventually anyway”—

    As far as I know, and it’s hard to argue against, Stalin himself stated that they would have lost the war without the allies for the simple reasons:

    First, that Germany succeeded in taking or destroying most of Russia’s industry.

    Secondly, while Americans supplied only 12K tanks, she supplied the vast majority of jeeps, trucks, communication gear, that gave Russia her communications and mobility.

    Third the allies provided more than half of Russian explosives. Plus copper and aluminum.

    Once germany had france she had people, industry, and resources, greater than russia and britain combined.

    Another case of: “It’s the economy, stupid”.

    That the west overplays her importance in defeating germany is one thing. That Russia could have done it alone is extremely unlikely. That americans could have taken moscow and collapsed the soviet union is a relative certainty. That the Anglo constraint of German expansion into eastern europe was the cause of the fall of the west, and the destruction of western civlization is unquestionable. The germans were saving the west in both wars, and the anglos were by consequence the fall of the west – and remain so today.
