    LIBERAL ARTS?

    Um…. My undergrad degree is in Fine Art (BFA in art history). All the business and engineering stuff is just to make money to consume and experience beautiful things. I had no intention of being a ‘starving artist’. Are you kidding? Poverty sucks.

    (Same for academia. Why On Earth Would You Do That? )

    Philosophy, Economics, History, Science VS Art and Literature.

    The first three are necessary to comprehend the last two. Otherwise, they’re just masturbatory entertainment under the guise of study.

    I must be doing something right if the old-guard-progressive-libertarians shy away. 🙂 ‘Cause they got ‘nuthin. That’s why.

    Thank you Vincent J. De Roeck for the multiple bits of insightful advice you gave me at PFS. In particular (a) on the church (b) on progressive libertarians.

    THE INSIDIOUS LOGIC OF PAUL KRUGMAN

    It is perfectly fine to overpay a corrupt government because it creates high paying salaries and consumption, despite not producing a good. But it is not perfectly fine to overpay healthcare workers for providing the best healthcare in the world in order to create consumption.

    Ostensibly we assume that its because he is a lying political hack.

    But the truth is, he is a racist who just hates white folk. And everything else is just a vehicle for his hatred.

    Another reason to hate MSFT…. I just bought a brand new, Acer, Windows 8 laptop. The box text, and the manuals are in English and in Russian. But you can’t install English in addition to Russian. You can use an english keyboard. But they blocked the auto update service from adding English.

    Very nice. Although the irony is, that if any nation of people on earth can hack language packs it’s the russians…. I mean, the average admin chick can hack windows here. It’s just cultural knowledge. So the only people end up penalizing is people like me who speak english but want to buy windows internationally.

    So what do I do? I go to a russian language site and download the hack. Just like every other person here does.

    And they wonder why we hate them….. It’ s not random.

    They deserve it.

    AMERICAN (strategy)

    Well, amidst this wonderful bit of rebellion we’re seeing, at least the media are mentioning us as ‘conservatives and libertarians’, or as ‘the libertarian wing’, and positioning us as cooperating ideologies.

    We need policy control of the second party. I don’t care what it is called.

    The meme we must get out there is ‘the conservative wing of the was not able to either protect our liberty or our family, or our culture, nor produce policy. We can do that. Because we speak in rational terms about liberty.’

    And then we need to critique the progressive wing of libertarianism as ‘the crazy people’ who prevented us from uniting with conservatives – ‘because its true.

    I think that demographics tell us that the time is past, and that we must break up the country into no less than three, if not many, many, more, new states. But working all strategies simultaneously is something that works as well – buying lots of options so to speak, because they’re cheap options. So, there isnt any harm in trying to work within the existing system, using the threat of breaking the country apart through nullification and secession, or civil war.

    But I’m up for any strategy. Although civil war would be the most entertaining, nullification and secession is the cheapest and easiest, that creates many new opportunities for increasing capital.

    (ASCENTIUM) GOSSIP

    How long does it take between the time I say something on FB to make it all the way through the board and back to me? Clue. It takes much longer for someone to tell me than it does for the gossip to run through the network. lol

    Take the moral high ground. 🙂

    In the end, it always works.
