And the answers surely would be no. And if she tried to then she will be bringing, or applying a monopoly demand for consent of the rationalization she will be making, ie, deceit. Testimonialism ROCKS.”— Deus Ex

It is no coincidence that E. O. Wilson’s Sociobiology and Richard Dawkins’ The Selfish Gene were published in 1975 and 1976 respectively, just a few years after Trivers’ seminal papers. Both bestselling authors openly acknowledged that they were popularizing Trivers’ ideas and the research they spawned. Likewise for the much-talked-about books on evolutionary psychology in the 1990s—The Adapted Mind, The Red Queen, Born to Rebel, The Origins of Virtue, The Moral Animal, and my own How the Mind Works. Each of these books is based in large part on Trivers’ ideas and the explosion of research they inspired (involving dozens of animal species, mathematical and computer modeling, and human social and cognitive psychology.— https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Trivers via @[100024818064292:2048:Rosenborg Predmetsky]

Sure, in the beginning there will be more activity in the courts as people adjust to an honest society. However, once the adjustment to a more “clean” Commons is made. The Courts will calm down as the cost of lying will be far too high to pay.”—Stephen Thomas

    (FB 1551979797 Timestamp) One you realize how much they are behind it all, you will become … extremely angry. It’s almost unimaginable that people can be that good at deceit that they can fool the vast majority of a civilization – until you realize they did it before with christianity and they almost did it with marxism, and now they’re doing it with genocide by postmodernism.

    (FB 1552006673 Timestamp) INTEREST AND TIME Consumption vs Production

    1. Production REQUIRES interest to calculate time.
    2. Consumption does NOT REQUIRE interest to calculate time.
    3. Time has already been calculated.
    4. It was either a good calculation or a bad one.

    This is one of those things I unconsciously assume is obvious because I already convert all economic and financial statements into statements of time. But Michael reminds me tonight that it isn’t obvious. I suppose I’ve convinced everyone who wasn’t thinking in terms of property to do so but I have clearly failed to convince everyone to convert property into time, because it is time that we create and purchase all property with and we make time by saving time by cooperation in a division of labor. I mean, that’s what productivity means: measurable returns on time.
