    THEY’RE TAKING CARE OF THEIR OWN, NOT US

    —“DHS Adds Workers for Gunmakers, Gun Retailers, and Shooting Ranges to “Essential Critical Infrastructure” List”—

    —“Seems ‘they’ have a plan, otherwise I would expect the opposite of this from Washington.”—@Achtttung

    It’s just as important for first responders as it is for citizens. And this is a reaction to some cities forcing closure of gun shops. But yes, it’s looking like it might get out of hand. And yes it should be glorious if it does.

    —“Alabama’s disaster preparedness plan says that “persons with severe mental retardation, advanced dementia or severe traumatic brain injury may be poor candidates for ventilator support.” https://propub.li/2JihhRY”—

    —“This is eugenics.”—Jeet Heer @HeerJeet

    You say that like it’s a bad thing rather than the correct thing to do.

    “Equality” is a means of directing resources to care rather than consumption. But this isn’t a matter of consumption but of survival of human capital.

    If you say otherwise you’re unfit for public speech.Updated Mar 29, 2020, 11:34 AM

    DENIAL OR HOPE? 😉

    —“It’s amazing how few people have really internalised what is coming in the next month. Especially in the US. Not the human damage or the economic damage that is coming.”– Iron Economist

    — “I’m pretty terrified but I think people many people are in a state of hopeful denial”-JayMan @JayMan471

    I’m not in hopeful denial.

    I’m just hopeful that the false promise of the 20th is over.

    The century of utopian pseudoscience, sophistry, and darwinian-denial is done.

    It may be an ‘expensive correction’. But it’s better than the alternatives.

    20% of police quarantined already.

    Some ‘urbanites’ will eventually ‘take initiative’ and it will spread.

    JUNG’S UNFINISHED PROJECT

    by Andrew M Gilmour

    Jung approached consciousness empirically; like someone attempting to reverse engineer it. He looked at the outputs (myth, religion and art) and worked backwards. Unfortunately his fixation on illnesses limited the scope of his discoveries. There was the potential for him to create a complete model of the psyche. A western equivalent of the Upanishads or Kabbalah.

    —“Propertarianism is the best case for individualism as it establishes the costs. Sovereignty requires agency requires the aptitude to incur and manage the costs.”—Rick Tavi

    (CD: Well done. I set out to restore ability, responsibility, un-substitutability, and cost to search for Freedom and Liberty by permission at other’s discretion – resulting in creation of Sovereignty in fact by our decision. I did so because when working on Hoppe I understood argumentation ethics were nonsense. Violence, like boycott, is never, ever, ever off the political table.)
