  • Markets are simply the only means of preserving asymmetry and removing asymmetry

    Markets are simply the only means of preserving asymmetry and removing asymmetry of power and information. Courts are the only means of preserving asymmetry of warranty of performance.

    I don’t think markets are subordinate to hierarchy in any sense other than I think that they themselves prohibit hierarchy by permitting the meritocratic rise and fall of the classes by means of DEMONSTRATED ACTIONS.

    I don’t think a market for commons divided by the classes of production is a hierarchy, it is just a means of recognizing the forms of production that the meritocratic families have managed to produce and hold onto: families, business, enterprises, territories, and monarchy.

    The fact that there is greater SCALE OF MERIT in each class is simply a fact of the market operating to ensure that we demonstrate the greatest rotation and maintain the families businesses, enterprises, and institutions, with the greatest merit.

    DECREASING THE ERROR, BIAS, AND DECEIT, TO IDENTIFY CHEAPLY OPPORTUNITIES TO SEIZE

    The political questions we face are very different if we seek to eliminate error, bias, and deceit, rather than if we seek to identify optimums by which to obtain discounts. People will sieze the discounts no matter what. the problem is in decreasing the error, bias, and deciet, so that those opportunities are more readily visible. It’s not that we should ignore error bias and deceit so we must constantly thrash through them to find the opportunities amidst the clutter.

    (You know, I try to keep up by reading and responding to any comment I can, mentions that I can, liking as many shares as I can, but if I’m not doing it it’s just that I literally can’t keep up. I can almost keep a list of how far everyone has progressed, but that’s getting harder. I have a stack of incomplete answers to big questions. but I just can’t keep up at this point. And there is too much change – change that’s exciting – to let pass by. So please don’t take it personally. )

    ON OUR ‘HIGH TRUST ALTRUISM’ (RISK TAKING PUTS ON FUTURE COOPERATION)

    (from hbdchick)

    —“So, again, I think there are at least three things to juggle in our heads here when thinking about possible selection pressures for nepotistic (or or not-so-nepostistic) altruism, all having to do with the “viscosity” of populations:

    1) inbreeding,

    2) family types, and

    3) the forces socio-economic systems exert on familial relationships.

    For more than the last thousand years, northwestern european pops have had low inbreeding, small family types, and societal pressures which have pulled apart related individuals (those pressures increased over the period).

    Eastern european pops have probably had higher inbreeding for some or all of this time period (although nothing on the scale of the arab world), large family types, and not very many social or economic pressures for family member to disperse.

    The mediterranean world, aside from the large islands mentioned by kaser above, has had higher inbreeding rates than northwestern europe (especially southern italy), small family types (at least, small residential family types), but few pressures for close family to separate much”— HBD Chick

    CITIES: DOMESTIC MARKETS OR INTERNATIONAL PLANTATIONS

    There is a difference between a city (market) and an immigrant city (plantation).

    Democracy provides the immigrant cities with the illusion of influence.

    Unfortunately, they don’t understand that they took the bait.

    THE PURPOSE OF THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT?

    A mechanism for the division of spoils from the conquest of a continent.

    That’s it. that’s all there is to be said
