Honor among men has no color. It may be true that at present, the probability varies with color. But no man is incapable of Honor It’s a matter of will, effort, and discipline. Strong men stand at the wall of war, invasion, and conversion. Strong men stand at the wall of violence, theft and fraud. Strong men stand at the wall of manners, ethics, and morality Strong men stand at the wall of truth in word and deed. Honor does not seek approval. Honor knows no opinion. Its seeks to create a garden which we call civilization. And in that garden we all can prosper. For generation, after generation, after generation Not just so others may sleep well in their beds. But so we and ours can as well.

Evolution Of A Condition Of Liberty: The Struggle From Discretionary To Non Discretionary To Market Rule.
(important piece) (consolidates concepts) Western Man struggles against discretionary (arbitrary) rule, in an effort to construct a condition of non-discretionary rule: Rule of Law.Rule of Law is imposed upon men by the organized use of violence to prohibit discretionary rule. Natural Law (property) provides Perfect Decidability to Rule of law, eliminating the need for discretionary rule. Natural Law prohibits the imposition of costs upon others, by the universal requirement for productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary transfer of that which man has homesteaded or obtained such transfers, when the acts were limited to externalities of the same criteria: productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary transfer. Common Law evolves incrementally by the identification of new methods of unproductive, insufficiently informed, unwarrantied, involuntary transfers, causing externalities of the same criteria, and adding those prohibitions to the canon of the law. Law of the Commons (Government) evolves: – First by concentrating rent seeking in the central authority, and suppressing familial, tribal, and local rent seeking, enabling each individual to act with his property in his best interests. – Second, the law of the commons evolves by the organization of production of commons, while removing the inability to defect from (free ride upon) the costs of provisioning those commons. – Third the law of the commons evolves to provide insurer of last resort as a service to the commons. – Fourth, the centralized rent seeking is eliminated by the conversion of the functions of insurer, and commons-producer, into a market for the selection of commons and tolerance for insurance. (Contractualism). Constitutions enumerate the processes by which rule of law, using market government, under natural law, is conducted by ordinary men. By use of force to create and fund, then market to persist, the meritocratic order is constructed against the will of the free riders that constitute all but a minority of the population. Man was not oppressed – he has been domesticated as surely as our plants and animals. Domesticated by the incremental suppression of parasitism through natural law, reproductive control, and aggressively culling the parasitic. Curt Doolittle The Propertaraian Institute Kiev, Ukraine -

Eccentricity is a Requirement
(of course I’m ‘eccentric’. anyone who sacrifices heavily for an intellectual pursuit is odd. it’s not normal to obsess on any topic. So all of us are a bit peculiar. we aren’t models to imitate, we’re resources to learn from. equality is a cancerous idea. specialization creates value we all share – not just in the economy, but in social and intellectual life. It is this diversity of specialization that is useful, whereas normative and legal diversity is costly. The crazy alcoholic uncle unable to catch a wife earned his respect by taking the risks no one else in the family could. Same goes for intellectuals. Genes work within kin groups. Individuals vary widely within. we need crazies all over the place – at least enough to protect the center where the normies breed ever increasingly wonderful generations.)

Ancapism Cannot Survive Market Competition
***”anarchism lacks institutions for construction of decidable law, and the production of commons necessary for the continuous development of suppression of parasitism and continuous development of competitive commons. It’s an ethic for disasporic people who free ride upon nation states, but it cannot serve as the institutional basis of a voluntary polity because one cannot create a polity that can compete for members with other polities. in other words, ancapism cannot produce a polity that can survive in the market for polities without a host polity and institutions that it parasitically lives within”***

Markets: Designed, Constructed, Or Evolved?
It’s that men did in fact create markets by forcible suppression of alternatives (parasitism) in all walks of life. Now this is different from ‘designed’. The market arises as a consequence of this suppression. So we ‘liberate’ the market as well as man, from parasitism. we construct liberty and market by the same means: suppression of its alternatives. So it’s not that we design the market, it’s that the market evolves from the design of suppression of parasitism. but reality is that market towns were established as were shopping malls today. So trade may exist prior to suppression – but markets are made. cooperation may exist prior to suppression – but liberty is constructed.

A Subjective To Objective Translation Worth Repeating
—Humans are adapted to want traditional forms of governance. They want law. They want to be ruled by legitimate, worthy, and trusted authority. They want a leader who commands the force of the nation to represent them to the outside world.”— Adolphus Völkermord Yes … and we want them because we want low opportunity costs (a dense population), low transaction costs (trust), low-cost information(homogeneity language, and interests), low-cost negotiation (stable norms: manners, ethics, morals), high returns on our work effort (a market and competitive commons), insurance against defection and defectors(law), and insurance against our failure (insurer of last resort), and insurance against the loss of all of the above (military defense).
What I have learned to say is that we want a low cost of ‘calculating’ probability of success in our endeavors, and high returns on our efforts expended: *The greatest return, in the shortest time, for the least effort, with the greatest degree of certainty, at the lowest risk* In other words, we are like every other creature, object, molecule, and particle in the known universe.
