http://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/artikel.php?ID=308020AYELAM VALENTINE IS ONE OF THE MOST INTERESTING PEOPLE WORKING TODAY
Why? Because he writes about something new: the struggle against socialist ideas in Africa. He doesn’t retread old arguments. He gives us something new. And in philosophy, economics, and politics, new thought, and good new thought, is worth paying attention to.

QUESTIONING MYSELF, BUT IT SEEMS THAT I MUST SOLVE HONESTY IF NOT TRUTH.
(Still having serious cold and or allergy problems. And having trouble getting in the zone.)
But I’ve been wrestling with the idea of whether or not I need to solve this problem of “Truth” or not in order to finish my work. And, unfortunately, the problem is that I do have to solve it.
MORALITY: I can solve the problem of articulating the objective source of moral instincts.
ETHICS: I can solve the problem of the ethics of cooperation (free riding) – by extending the definition of property rights and adding truth, warranty, symmetry.
POLITICS: I can solve the problem of politics by adding calculability (in all its complexity)
POLITICAL SPEECH: But I think I must solve the problem of public speech as well since it is more influential in the formation of agreements than the rules by which agreements are constructed.

MORAL VIOLATIONS
Those discounts, in economic terms are:
1. Violence (asymmetry of force)
2. Theft (asymmetry of control)
3. Fraud (false information)
4. Omission (Omitting information)
5. Obscurantism (Obscuring information)
6. Obstruction (Inhibiting someone else’s transaction)
7. Externalization (externalizing costs of any transaction)
8. Free Riding (using externalities for self benefit)
9. Socializing Losses (externalization to commons)
10. Privatizing Gains (appropriation of commons)
11. Rent Seeking (organizational free riding)
12. Corruption ( organized rent seeking)
13. Conspiracy (organized indirect theft)
14. Extortion (Organized direct theft)
15. War (organized violence, theft and destruction)
16. Immigration (conquest via displacement)
17. Conversion (conquest via mysticism)
PERSONAL ETHICS
The Ethical code that prevents those discounts (involuntary transfers, free riding) consists in:
1. Requirement that all demonstrated property be categorized as Private Property
2. Requirement for Voluntary Exchange
3. Requirement for Speaking the Truth
4. Requirement for Accountability for Symmetry of knowledge (the whole truth)
5. Requirement for Warranty as proof of symmetry
6. Requirement for Prohibition on negative externalities.
POLITICAL ETHICS
The Political Ethical Code consists in
1. Requirement for the One Law of Property
2. The Common (Organic) Law
3. The Professional Independent Judiciary
4. Contracts not law
– perishability
– universality
5. Requirement of “Calculability”
(note: technically speaking the requirement of calculability implies the requirement for operational language, and the requiremnet for strict constructionism. However, since that deduction apparently isn’t obvious I feel I should call out operational language in the construction of law also.)
6. Right of rejection, exclusion, secession (boycott, and ostracization)
POLITICAL SPEECH
The Public Intellectual’s, Politician’s, Public Speech’s Ethical Code consists in:
1. Requirement for operational language in e-prime as a defense against deception as a means of advocating involuntary transfers.
2. Prohibition on advocacy of involuntary transfer and the universal requirement voluntary ethical exchange.
PROBLEMS
1. (Prohibition on Inbreeding?)

UKRAINE UPDATE : RUSSIAN TERRORISM IS WORKING IN THE EAST
The ex-president took $30B with him to Russia to fund the insurrection in the east. Ukraine is too impoverished to defend itself.

CULTURAL OBSERVATIONS : LOLLIPOPS
Now, you know, it must be an american thing, because we’re kind of silly. But while I wouldn’t do it at a business meeting unless I knew everyone, an adult can walk around with a little lollipop occasionally. (I do. But then I’m sillier than most.)
Apparently lollipops are called ‘Chupa Chups’ here.
–“”Chupa Chups (/ˈtʃʌpətʃʌps/; Spanish pronunciation: [ˈtʃupaˈtʃups]) is a popular confectionery brand sold in over 150 countries around the world. It was originally used on a lollipop. The brand was founded by the Catalan Enric Bernat in 1958, and is currently owned by the Italian multinational corporation Perfetti Van Melle. The name of the brand comes from the Spanish verb chupar, meaning “to suck”. “”–
Now, I am perfectly happy to walk around with a lollipop but people here don’t walk around with coffee or food in public the way americans do either. (cigarettes are everywhere, but not consumables).
And apparently it’s embarrassing to be with an adult who’s sucking on a lolly.
Too bad. I’ll just say I’m an american and I don’t know better. lol
