    —“The Fed can do whatever it wants. It literally has a football field full of printing presses in the basement. If they want to re-steepen the yield curve, they can do it tomorrow. They just don’t want to change the paradigm. Don’t want to rock the boat. Change will creep in at the margin, probably among the scandis and Japanese, who has been dealing with these problems the longest.”— Michael Churchill

    Michael is saying the same thing everyone says, and thats that the state can’t go bankrupt because debt is denominated in dollars that they can print and simultaneously inflate. That’s different from deflation, in which people simply refuse to spend no matter what, or hyperinflation, which means that people are so suspicious of the future value that contracts for complex production are impossible, and demand for cash increases rapidly and the unpredictability appears in temporary (daily, hourly) prices. Money must allow the organization of networks of intertemporal investment, production, distribution, and trade, without providing rents (allowing interest-only gains), or decreasing the tolerance for time differences. In other words, the longer and more complex the Hayekian triangles (networks of production) the more the need for a stable currency. This is why states prefer spending rather than direct inflation. On the other hand I recommend direct distribution rather than inflation or spending, because this is the most direct route to the population and the people tend to spend rather than pay down debts. NOTE: notice I how just talked about economics operationally in descriptive terms (actions) using only Hayekian Triangles, and even when I did, I only did so to teach you the term. conversely note how people use many terms of art in economics. The problem is the individual does not know the difference between an economic term and a financial term. Inflation of the money supply causes inflation of prices to absorb it, such that the purchasing power of TIME (time and other resources are still just time, time to get the resources), stays the same. Deflation generally means decline in prices due to decreasing demand, and both deflation and inflation (increases because of more money, deflation because of less spending, or shift in what’s being produced. Right now restaurant food prices are increasing because more people have jobs and restaurants are having to pay more for staff.)

    Oct 5, 2019, 7:23 PM As far as I know the argument over the militia was only whether we be trained or not, and the debate as one of cost not existence. The result of which was that being armed with practice one or twice a year was enough – if affordable. It was never a question of our bearing arms.

  • Anti-Statism. Is that Correct? I Don”t Think So.

    Oct 6, 2019, 7:23 AM Hmmm … This is an angle I haven’t worked on enough, which is disambiguating the state (assets and bureaucracy), government (leadership), authority (rule of law and market polity vs authority and directed polity). Because it’s not whether we have a state or government or authority but whether we have rule of law or arbitrary rule (Rule by discretion). Plato’s vision and Sparta’s vision were different only in details. Fundamentally, in both, the majority ‘unwashed’ needed rule. The church the same. The feudal fiefs the same (true). In the monarchies the people only needed order because the middle class had begun to evolve and commerce creates order by incentives thereby eliminating the need for intervention by rulers. The enlightenment sought a majority middle class where all of us were governed by incentives in the market. The industrial revolution tried to reverse it, under Marx putting labor in position of authority rather than the market, and the vast increase in the underclasses continued that expansion. So when we say we are anti-state, or anti-governmnet this isn’t really true. it’s that we need a state and need a government, sufficient to preserve the largest middle class (market participants) possible, with the optimum common possible. And the only way to do that is rule of law and eugenics. And eugenics requires either embodiment in law, or the unfettered consequences of the market. So embodiment in the law is preferable solution because it is a moral solution that trades non-reproduction, for subsidy.

  • Domestication of Warfare Is Over. the War of All Against All Has Returned

    Oct 6, 2019, 9:55 AM When William Wallace defeated the english at Sterling Bridge, it was because the english assumed the Scotts would wait until they crossed and stood formation – as was custom – before the fight. Instead, Wallace waited until a defeatable number of the english crossed the bridge and then massacred them. They did not conform to the ritualization of warfare between aristocratic families and clans fighting over territories to tax at the minimum losses to the people and assets. Nor did they want to disincentive the common people from fighting. Western peoples have practiced ritualized warfare in order to domesticate our wars, pretty much forever – with the Westphalian peace that limited war to actions between states our most dominant present influence, and the false heroism of our European Civil Wars, and our current heroism by economic warfare, only slightly influencing our tradition. The supermajority of our people and our statesmen maintain a current obsession with the presumption of the continued domestication of warfare, both abroad and in the coming second American civil war. They presume we have not, by the restoration of Marxist Terrorism, and their imitators using Islamic Terrorism, observed that the Westphalian peace has ended; and our heroism in dragging mankind out of ignorance, poverty, hard labor, suffering, and disease is ignored because of slavery practiced by every civilization back into eternity, with the muslims the most avid practitioners. This coming civil war will be more like Lebanon and Syria than the American civil war, and less disorganized than the second world war. It will be region by region, neighborhood by neighborhood, house to house, in spontaneously escalating, unorganized destruction of individual lives, leaving dense urban areas favelas, the near complete loss of industrial capacity, communications, and power. Russians can lose a third of their economy and resort to farming. If Americans lose a third of their economy we will lose a third of our people. And we will certainly lose more. If it lasts six months we will never recover. I work tirelessly to provide a constitution that will resolve this civil war by peaceful means, and incrementally escalate only upon failure to resolve it by peaceful means. But one thing is certain – the left will not survive as a movement. Ever. And this country will return to rule of law, or it will be reduced to a wasteland if we fail. Edit

  • The Conflict Between Democracy and Eugenics

    Oct 6, 2019, 12:34 PM The First Cause of Western Decline is the conflict between Democracy and Eugenics caused by the industrial revolution. The enemy may Lie and Deny reality, but Western people will not face the truth themselves: we outpaced the rest because our civilization has been eugenic since its founding, and survived the middle ages despite the Church’s attempt to reverse that dysgenia through maximizing reproduction. Contractualism, Manorialism, Law, Hanging, Plagues, Winter, War, and the Reformation achieved what the church fought against, and what Women and the Left fight against today, and what the Left weaponizes against western civilization: dysgenia destroys what the west has made.
