    I LOVE THE LIBERTARIANS – ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT TAUGHT ME.
    Don’t get me wrong. I love the @Mises Institute people, especially David Gordon, @BobMurphyEcon, @ThomasEWoods, and @WalterEBlock, as well as Tom DeLorenzo, Jeff Herbener, Guido Hulsmann, @PetergKlein Mark Thornton, Roger Garrison, and of course, Hans Hoppe. I’ve learned so much from all of them.

    The fact that it turns out that libertarianism in the Rothbardian model simply is not survivable, and is nothing close in moral and ethical content as well as ‘propertarian’ logic as the common, concurrent, natural law of the european people that’s evolved over the past five thousand years.

    So they’re just wrong. That doesn’t mean that the WAY that they’re wrong isn’t in some way a want of a higher moral standard we wish man would aspire to. It means that we must built social, economic, and political orders with the people that exist and the incentives that texist, not those we wish existed.

    It’s taken me a long time to come to terms with the difference between the aristocratic tradition I was raised in, and the middle class and upper middle class, and sometimes te pseudo-priestly class that many other thinkers have been raised in. And there are precious few of us in that anglo aristocratic tradition remaining. And so we find ourselves even further distanced from the morals of our middle and upper middle class libertarian allies, as the distance from our lower and underclass men and women race to the bottom.

    It will be very difficult to reconstruct aristocratic traditions without the force of aristocratic men. Only within that reconstruction are tolerable the follies of the middle and lower classes – especially the talking classes that seek attention and tatus by non-performative means.

    So in the end we must take responsibility for the silly and less able people whose traditions prohibit the responsibility necessary to produce the luxury of their follies.

    There is no alternative to rule of law by the natural law of sovereignty reciprocity truth duty excellence beauty before face, self, family and clan, by test the natural law, commonality it’s negativa findings of the court, and concurrency in our positiva choices for commons. Its the optimum evolutionary velocity for those who are able.

    And for those that are unable, unwilling, and immoral, evolution has no mercy and will have no mercy upon us for our undue tolerance.

    Someone must be responsible.

    Or no one is.

    Cheers.

    Again, I love walter, I’ve spend personal time with him, I have read his books. I undrestand him just fine. In his model, which is the non-responsibility for the commons of the jewish separatist model, he is extremely consistent. And he doesn’t even say that model is good, only that he and others prefer it. I mean, I understand, it’s just not moral ethical reciprocal or anything else but justifying free riding, and parasitism.

    Misunderstood. The changes are due to changes in incentives especially reproductive responsibility, responsibility to the commons, responsibility to the traditions that have made those commons possible, obvious economic, reproductive and sexual license, dating, mating, marriage, the collapse of education, and the emergence of new social status, identity, and political bias that are the result of the excessive ascendance of the individual by the destruction of the family as the central purpose of political and social orders, so that we produce intergenerational persistence.
    However the underlying instinct and intuition haven’t changed at all. They have been the same, as far as we can determine for millions of years. The singular direction of human evolution for at least the past two million if not longer, has been neotenic- the extension of the rate of maturity increasing cognitive and behavioral plasticity by the decrease in that rate of maturity and the attendant decrease in aggression and emergence (like dogs) of prosociality that fosters cooperation and the two sides of the behavioral coin: altruism and altruistic punishment.
    Understanding social science is not possible without understanding behavioral economics and cognitive science. In no small part because sociology and psychology are pseudosciences and always have been.

    –“Would appreciation and depreciation be considered a measure of the success or failure of the media of exchange as a form of commons?”–

    No, universality of demand, function as a pricing system, appreciation AND depreciation AND stability in competition with the time horizon of the production cycle (ability of people to plan everything from lunch to launching a major and complex industrial program) determine the value of a medium of exchange because it conveys information which is the purpose of prices – to convey information and as such permit us to engage in imputation.

    What that means, in ordinary language, that the value of a thing is determined by what it will sell for despite the costs to us in it’s production, and that we must then decide how to operate our lives and our work and our businesses by consideration of the costs of goods we can afford to invest in an outcome given the market prices. So we organize mankind by the information included in prices and there is no other mechanism for providing mankind with that precision of information in all aspects of our lives despite the enormous complexity of the world we live in.

    So there is a trope that money is a store of value, but that is only true within the context of production cycles – in other words a lease for 3 months vs a lease for 99 years. or the cost of purchasing groceries for a restaurant this morning vs the price they will sell for at lunch. Vs the price they might sell for in another season where such goods are not so readily available.

    Correct. Urban city states and suburban and rural territorial states. For the simple reason that they have opposing interests in the rules of the commons because they are polar opposites in opportunity costs and responsibility for commons.

  • False categorization. Tax is either a fee for the production of property rights

    False categorization. Tax is either a fee for the production of property rights obligations and inalienations or a fee for the production of commons … or a fee that is neither the production of those rights, or those commons … meaning that it is not in your interest.

    Correct. Because the female instinct for evasion of responsibility, even her own emotions, mind, words, and behavior, but even more so responsibility for the protection of commons whether material, formal, or informal, because it exposes her to risk.
