    Small things in large numbers have vast consequences. Would you rather keep a 106IQ economy employed or a 90IQ economy employed? At what point do you not have enough people to voluntarily organize production in relation to those who can only participate in production, to those who cannot participate in production?

    You can’t use 20th century history as a benchmark, unless you include the rest of the world’s poverty, ignorance, and backwardness in you analysis. Because labor pools are rebalancing and they will continue to. And the upper class won’t be those people that hold land. It will be those people who are employable in the organization of production.

    Now, in Propertarianism I have an answer for this problem, but only if we limit dysgenic reproduction to one child. Otherwise, in the end, we still lose.

    Because there has to be a reason for a minority to organize production.

    Let that sink in a bit.

    We revisit this question every eight or ten years and the answer is the same.

    Mommy daddy game at the federal level. Why this is surprising astonished me when I was 20, and still does today.

    Voting is emotional and moral,

    NOBILITY

    —“If you had any knowledge of the noble things of life, you would refrain from coveting others’ possessions; but for me to die for Greece is better than to be the sole ruler over the people of my race.”—Leonidas

    The purpose of aristocracy is for all, to deny any and all, power and authority over any and all.

  • Poincaré on Cantor’s Mysticism

    [P]oincaré rejected the later foundational work of Cantor, saying that

    —“There is no actual infinity, the Cantorians have forgotten that, and they have fallen into contradiction. It is true that Cantorism rendered services, but that was when it was applied to a real problem whose terms were clearly defined, and we could walk safely. Logisticians as Cantorians have forgotten. (Poincaré 1908: 212–213; 1913b: 484)”—
