It correctly singles out the Frankfurt School at the source of much modern suffering and civilizational decline. It also spells out the role of international banks in keeping the current system going. Very informative.”—

  • RESCUING MISES FROM OSTRACIZATION We know why incentivized leftists do what they

    RESCUING MISES FROM OSTRACIZATION

    We know why incentivized leftists do what they do now, and mises was wrong. Its status seeking, not guilt. Guilt is interestingly more powerful in the jewish construct of man where status seeking is more powerful in western heroic vision. We know that most leftists are genetically determined, and environmentally reinforced. So if one is to deduce human behavior and incentive, one must correction understand the hierarchy of those incentives and he was incorrect.

    My goal isn’t to discredit Mises, it is to eliminate postmodern deceptions and pseudosciences. And to rescue Austrian economics from the damage done, so that I can reintroduce morality into empirical economics, requires that I demonstrate how and why mises was mistaken. The problem is that mises, like many cosmopolitans, argued pseudoscientifically. I understand now why this was done by both germans and jews of their era. But the net is that it is pseudoscientific and must be corrected or be thrown out along with every other pseudoscience. To correct it requires only that correction I have made: mises was mistaken. He had discovered operationalism (intuitionism) in economics as a test of existential possibility. But it is beyond question at this point that economic phenomenon are not deducible from has nonsense ‘axiom’. Instead, we can create theories however we wish, we can test them through criticism. Once we possess them we can create models from them. Models help us investigate the possibility of new theories. However, we must criticize (falsify) our theories to determine if they survive scrutiny. Included in these tests are internal consistency (logic) external correspondence (empirical testing), operational definition (existential possibility), parsimony (falsifiication), as well as morality (voluntary exchange/transfer). These tests warranty that we relay what exists not what we imagine, by laundering imaginary content from our imagined theories, leaving the most accurate description of phenomenon that we can measure.

    From this perspective, Misies is correct: he sought to practice moral economics (exchanges), and the mainstream adopted immoral economics(deceptions). Unfortunately he tried, as germans and jews are want to do, to conflate axiomatic truth and morality, instead of theoretical truth being necessary for the conduct of moral economics.

    This is, I think, how we rescue mises from his ostracized position in history, and restore morality to economics.

  • INCOME INEQUALITY OR FAMILY INEQUALITY? CURT: The degree to which inequality is

    INCOME INEQUALITY OR FAMILY INEQUALITY?

    CURT: The degree to which inequality is attributable to income or family reproduction is the difference between left and right positions on the economy. I suggest, that as usual, the right is more correct than the left. Since if the right position was corrected, the right would tolerate redistribution.

    —“among the wealthiest 20 percent of whites, divorce rates and single parenthood have returned to 1950s levels after a blip upward in the 1970s. But among the poorest 30 percent of whites — and among much larger percentages of Hispanics and blacks — divorce and single parenthood have become a way of life. That is exacerbated by the recent decline in college attendance by young men and the dearth of job opportunities for less educated men. That makes them less marriageable and less prepared to take responsibility for children they may father. Brookings Institution scholar Isabel Sawhill [states that] we are becoming a “bifurcated society,” not just because of income inequality but because of family formation patterns.”—

    —-“In October 1843, Engels published his Outlines of a Critique of Political Economy, which caught the attention of Karl Marx and the 23-year-olds struck up a correspondence. …. By 1848, the year of publication of the Communist Manifesto, Europe was ablaze with Revolution. For the first time, the proletariat came on to the political scene as a force for itself. The Revolution was defeated, with the Junkers gaining control in Germany and the Army in France. But throughout the following period, the working class remained the chief threat to bourgeois society. The First International was founded in 1863, with the Trades Councils in Britain and the rapid rise of the German Social Democratic Party and the Paris Commune holding state power for a short period in 1871.”—

  • The 80/20 Rule of Western Genius

    [T]he Left’s Hatred of Dead White European Male (DWEM) Genius

    Yes but I am pretty sure that I have stated WHY it was a DWEM thing: TRUTH.

    The question is how much of truth telling is genetic and how much is cultural. I tend to nearly ignore genetics in my arguments, and focus on distributions and norms – which is the opposite of the approach of the NRx movement per se.

    However, it is possible that europeans’ reduced impulsivity and aggression, plus our rather unique rather uniform mix of verbal and spatial intelligence produced some specific genetic advantage; or it is possible that we self-selected for lower impulsivity and aggression out of

    Watch how naturally white people work in formation. I don’t know if we selected for it or evolved it. But one way or another it’s part of us – combined risk. So that is what tends to make me think that western achievement is not entirely normative.

    But I am still with the 80/20 proposition, that while as individuals our behavior is 80% genetic and 20% emergent, that western uniqueness is 20% genetic and 80% dependent upon the emergent effects of truth-telling and outbreeding.

    People don’t want wealth, they want status. Wealth is only useful if it gains you status. If you cannot compete in wealth production then you must compete in gossip or violence production. Those are the only two possible means of competing with it.
