Yeah.. this is right.

2) Natural Law (Law of Cooperation)
3) Testimonial Law (Law of Information)

—“What about regulation? Can you offer an explanation in Propertarian terms?”— Jeremie Makell
EXCELLENT QUESTION
Law is discovered, contracts are constructed with terms. Regulations cannot exist unless provided by an insurer of the contract. So as far as I know only Discovered Law, Strictly constructed productive contract, and strictly constructed insurance contract, can exist.
The reason the state ‘got into the regulatory business’ is that the primary function of the state has been as the insurer of last resort.
My position is that the state implicitly insures by the court of law, all insurers within the domain.
And that as the insurer of last resort, rescuing an insurer in the common interest, is accomplished by just another contract.
A contract cannot be made without the ability to ensure restitution and reparation in case of failure.
Under this model there is no agent that can issue regulations except the insurer. And as an insurer these are not ‘regulations’ but simply contract terms.
So regulations cease to exist under propertarianism since only a monopoly can create regulations – and there exist no monopolies other than the monopoly of the one law of natural law of cooperation.

Ah, but they are my words. Their order, their emphasis, their choice, are mine.
Ah, but over the millennia we incrementally whittle the error bias and lies from the prior generation’s words, leaving but the necessary underneath.
Ah, but truth is not arrogant, it merely exists – laid bare by erosion. And the error bias and lies, lay about in the dust: the remains of the foolish, the arrogant, and deceitful of the generations that came before us.
You cannot defeat truth with shaming, rallying, and moral argument that claims offense, since truth holds the apex of morality, and all else is but error, bias, and lie beneath it.

mysticism requires faith in the supernatural. reliance upon reason requires nothing other than that a rational preference for the logical necessity that over the long term, fewer falsehoods must eventually produce greater parsimony of correspondence (truth).

if you submit to mysticism you have abandoned reason. if you abandon reason you are no longer capable of rational cooperation. if you are no longer capable of rational cooperation then you are not longer human.
