(small-town life)
Can’t get anyone to fix my dishwasher. So I ask a local contractor I’m friendly with, just because we bump into each other all time, for a referral, and he says he’ll stop by and fix it for me this week.
This is what I love about small-town life.
We take care…

I’ve only got two grandchildren from one daughter. I have hopes I’ll get one or two out of the other daughter (they’re both scientists). And my son is ten years away from that question. ;). Meanwhile, I’m talking to a friend who’s my age that as something like twenty…

I still can’t believe that someone would ‘appropriate’ my collection of white shirts from the laundry? I mean, I live in an over 55 condo complex. Maybe one of the housekeepers? I don’t have washer/dryer in the unit (yet). But the laundry is free, and it’s never that busy.
It’s… it’s just weird. Seriously.
If it’s not your date, girlfriend, fiance, or wife stealing your white shirts to sleep in (why do they all do that?), then you still have to worry about housekeepers and little old ladies? lol

Spent the last bit with a biz team member discussing how ‘the internet is decaying’ and my opinion is that google search is leading the decline.

There are only so many ways to pay for the commons.
One is commissions from the activity created by the market created by the institutions including that of law. This can be either sales or income. Income causes the LEAST interference in the pricing system and human behavior.…

IT’S WORSE THAN YOU THINK
52% of Americans are on some sort of govt subsidy.
25% of Americans rely on social security:
…. 18% are retirees,
…. 3% are disabled, and;
…. 2.3% are survivors.
18% of Americans rely on Medicare (age)
18% of Americans are on Medicaid (poverty)
19% of Americans are on Welfare
Top 1% of taxpayers: paid 42.3% of all federal income taxes. They accounted for more income taxes paid than the bottom 90% combined.
Top 10% of taxpayers: Paid 74% of all income taxes.
Top 25% of taxpayers: Paid 89% of all income taxes.
Top 50% of taxpayers: Paid 97.1% of all individual income taxes.
Bottom 50% of taxpayers: Paid the remaining 2.9% of all individual income taxes.
So… why are we even taxing the bottom 50% of taxpayers?
Does the population understand that having exported our industrial capacity and financialized our economy, all of this redistribution is dependent upon the dollar as the reserve currency and the USA’s role in policing world law, finance, and trade?
No.

The nuclear family is the result of bipartite manorialism above then Hajnal line beginning in Holland in 700ad – producing higher trust, protestantism, the civil society, wealth, and the modern rule of law state.
So, no.
However, upon allowing integration of primitive peoples the…

SEX DIFFERENCES IN ADMITTING YOU’RE WRONG
I haven’t included the sex differences in admitting fault and behavioral self-modification, but Alex does a pretty good job of covering the topic. He isn’t making the truth-before-face argument. But otherwise, he hits all the points. Perhaps he understates the importance of adversarial competition in teaching us all this behavior. Perhaps his best insight in this video is that this is the best test of the quality of a woman.
