    ANGLO WORLD: THE SPORT OF CONFLICT

    In the anglo world, our law evolved such that the judge was a trusted referee for combatants, not an authority. The judge is a referee, the two sides enter combat and the jury (the audience) determines who has won or lost. The common law had then to be understandable by common jurors, since they determine the outcome -they ‘judge’. The ‘judge’ himself or herself, is merely a referee to ensures that the rules of the game are obeyed.

    Why does the jury system work in the anglo-sphere and why is it either feared or unworkable in others? And what can we learn from that?

    damn… it’s not that you have a right to ancestral lands, (under narrow conditions), it is that you have a moral obligation to restore ancestral lands. Interesting….

    You know, writing about what you CAN experience, analogies to experience, and that which you cannot experience is really difficult…. All language is analogy to experience, so try to talk to the blind and deaf about color and sound requires layers of analogy all of which are open to misinterpretation and error… sigh…

    SURPRISE FINDING : ANCESTRAL LANDS

    I knew something was in the back of my head. And I have to translate it a bit from its current state. But I thought people might find this excerpt from the ending of the video interesting:

    —“Therefore I would argue, that you not only possess a universal moral right to your transformed and improved ancestral lands it they were taken from your people by force, but, that assuming you produced and do produce, a higher standard of Propertarian morality than it’s takers, that you possess a universal moral obligation to restore ancestral lands, whether your own lands or otherwise.”—

    Now, you have to understand the rather narrow conditions in support of this argument. But still, if you had asked me going into this analysis I would never have predicted that conclusion at all – and would have said it was crazy. But it’s not. It stands.

    Not sure how long before I get the video out. I keep thinking I will finish it but I didn’t’ get time to work on the script until today – and only for an hour or two.

    I just don’t really understand sociological luddites. Sorry, but the agrarian era was not idyllic until the invention of power equipment, and then it became irrelevant. So I really have no patience for luddites of any form, libertarian or otherwise.You’re just marxists of personal property rather than marxists of common property.

    IMMORALITY IN ECONOMICS

    In a misguided attempt to conduct economics AMORALLY as if it were a physical science, rather than **THE** science of that branch of cooperation that is unavailable to our direct perceptions, economists have in fact, introduced and imposed upon man, particularly western man, systemic immorality. This is the most immoral age. For a reason: because economists and left philosophers made it our most immoral age. And they did it with the pseudoscientific use of statistics, divorced from the actions necessary to produce economic phenomeon. Had Economists understood operationalism and testimonial truth we would not have produced the immoral century.

    But we did. And it’s my job and that of others to end it – forever.

    Economics must be the study of morality or it is the imposition of immorality.

    Unless you are an immoral advocate of theft, immorality and dysgenic then you there is no counter argument.

    THNKING

    more on the family and government.

    …governments that administer commons for families assist in reproduction, while governments that administer individuals assist merely in consumption. While all must be written for individuals, all commons must be constructed for families …..

    The compromise. the market and law are individual preferences. marriage is a corporation-a contractual preference. government is a corporation – a contractual preference.. …

    I see. I think I have it. This will take me a while to figure out….
