    THE MEANING OF ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL

    ”…Created equal …” is an incomplete sentence. In P this would have to be a complete sentence. “…. are created by nature, equal before the laws of nature and the natural law of reciprocity.” It’s just poetic. And they use property or tort rather than reciprocity.

    ” … associated …” doesn’t mean anything. I can gossip and spread a rumor about you, and cause people to associate you with something negative.

    “… aristocracy..” meant and means rule by the best, in other words, meritocracy, demonstrated by military defense, achievement of wealth, and contribution to the political government of the polity.

    Truth will bring meritocracy. If we produce families producing consistent meritocracy over generations we will produce nobility. If we produce a government by people from that nobility, we will produce an aristocracy. If that hierarchy of merit is defended by rule of law by sovereignty and reciprocity, by universal standing in matters of the commons, then it is very hard for aristocracy to survive without in fact surviving on meritocracy.

    Same goes for entrepreneurs today. The problem was removing the requirement that one demonstrate meritocracy in order to participate in government., We call this error the universal franchise. But that was a mistake. Furthermore, instead of the aristocracy producing policy and the government acting as a jury, and the bureaucracy enforcing it, we gave the decision to the government and removed the veto of the aristocracy.

    That’s the problem.

    Demonstrated excellence is the only test of merit.

    WHAT HONEST ANARCHISTS ARE GRASPING FOR: RULE OF LAW

    Alain Dwight

    Anarchy is a rhetorical illusion, it doesn’t exist in reality.

    There is no rule without rulers, there are no active nouns (rules) without actors implementing them (rulers). Every method of interaction has rules that are set and enforced by rulers.

    We want rule of law (suppressing free-riding of all forms regardless of rank/class) rather than discretionary rule (cherry picked application), and this is what honest anarchists are grasping for.

    The rest are essentially libertarians peddling the non aggression principle, which amounts to advocacy for discretionary rule because only some impositions of costs are counted while others are ignored.

    Most often, imposing costs by way of invading someone’s territory or subverting their social norms is permitted and so retaliation against such actions is considered “initiating aggression” while the initial imposition is not.

    It’s a great recipe for demanding access to low corruption commons and then calling it aggression if there are any demands or conditions required in terms of sharing the cost to construct and maintain the commons. It’s coerced association – ghetto ethics.

    NAP and anarchism generally permits blackmail too.

    WHY THE AMERICAN MODEL “WORKED”

    by James Louis LaSalle

    Law is the glue that holds American society and culture together; we are not inherently smarter, nor do we have better natural resources than other countries.

    What we do have is an idea, that we’re infused with our entire lives: respect for the rule of law. We go to court, we pay our fines, we show up for jury duty, the vast majority of defendants out on bond turn themselves in for their sentences, rather than flee. And it’s just an idea.

    Kansas City, Missouri has around 500,000 people. It has a police force of 1100 officers, working in three shifts. At any given time, there’s perhaps 300 officers on duty. Policing half a million people. It’s only possible in a society where the citizens respect other citizens’ persons, property, and space.

    The govt’s primary purpose is to provide me infrastructure to enhance my ability to generate income, purchase property, and protect those activities from other citizens, other countries, and the govt itself. It actually does this so well that we dwell on trivial issues, like who has to bake who a cake. Which is actually pretty awesome when you think about it.

    Our system isn’t implemented with force. It’s there, lurking in he background, but it isn’t the prime mover. The IDEA of the rule of law is the prime mover. It’s why Americans find concepts like “sanctuary cities”, where the rule of law is suspended, utterly infuriating.

    I would say it’s one of the single greatest factors in the election of Trump. Nothing offends your regular American more than someone escaping Justice.

    Trump is forcing the House to vote on impeachment so that he too has subpoena powers in defense. The left is in a bind. If they impeach they empower the president against the DNC,Clinton,Obama and Deep State Alliance. If they drag out he wins.

  • WE CAN ONLY BE EQUAL IN MORALITY AND THE LAW TO ENFORCE IT by Dr. Richard T. Hün

    WE CAN ONLY BE EQUAL IN MORALITY AND THE LAW TO ENFORCE IT

    by Dr. Richard T. Hünerkoch

    Equality is an artifice, it’s a concept, an “ideal” and the problem with ideals is that they are not obtainable by mortals. Perfection does not exist in the mortal realm.

    Equality in it’s most literal definition is an impossibility it’s an idealistic but unrealistic goal.

    —“If you start with a faulty premise and try to solve problems within that premise you find that none of your solutions work. The faulty premise is “equality” and everyone proposes solutions within that world view. The people you call “racist” are trying to explain this to you.”—

    The best thing that you can hope to achieve is as much legal equality as you possibly can but make no mistake it’s not the similarities that make us similar it’s the differences that make us different.

    Men are not even equal to other men so how could women possibly measure up?

    Equality as the left defines it means iniquity between “privileged” and “victims.” They want to make you dumb, hamstring your physicality and put a paper bag over your head so that the smart, strong and beautiful are “equal” to the stupid, weak and ugly. That’s what they mean.

    Equality is a worthy goal in and of itself but the only way things can be equal is through homogeneity. The closer we get to a homogenous culture, the closer we can get to equality. If the United States has the homogeneity of Iceland, we could be closer to equals.

    However though, because of diversity and heterogeneity, we have to adjust our target baseline of equality because we have to account for many extraneous variables.

    If we didn’t need to adjust for IQ differences that are miles apart, we could all be more equal.

    The only kind of equality that exists on Earth is the equality of mortality. We will all die someday and while we all have that in common, that is where the similarities end.

    The social terrorist left is trying to make us all “mortally equal” because that’s the only equality that truly exists in the mortal realm.

    Needless to say, the fact that we will all die someday is not enough reason to throw away our culture with reckless abandon.

    In case I haven’t made my point enough.

    Equality, as defined by the social terrorist left, is simply just communism masquerading as compassion.

    Don’t fall for this facade, the true visage behind the mask is the ugly bloated face of Karl Marx himself.

    (a) the military will take over the government, (b) rule of law is maintained by armed men protecting their interests – and only one group of people in history has invented and practiced rule of law. And they’re in the flyover country. (c) There is no EU-UN military force. 😉

    by @[1013719133:2048:Luke Weinhagen]

    Is there a relationship between virtue and freedom? Why might have the Founding Father pursued virtue, rather than explicitly pursue freedom?

    In this context, I am using –

    Virtues: the characteristics and actions of an individual that enable the accumulation of trust.

    Vices: the characteristics and actions of an individual that consume trust.

    Virtue Freedom: The ability to refrain from acting, without the burden of consequence. To be free from compulsion.

    Versus

    Vice Freedom: The ability to act, without the burden of consequence. To be free from costs.

    It is my belief that –

    Virtue empowers the development of freedom, as trust increases the incentive for compulsion decreases.

    Vice is dependent on freedom, social costs of vice are covered by consuming the store of trust.

    Setting the founders aside, you may not agree their pursuit was one of virtue, this is my goal. My alignment with Propertarianism (https://propertarianism.com/) is with its potential to support the pursuit of virtue. For anyone interested in “why” I explore and post much of what I do, creating a structure where a man is free to pursue virtue is that “why”.

    If the goal is freedom for all, the inherent demand this creates is the pursuit of virtue by all.

    And where our definitions of virtue conflict with each other, meaning reciprocity is not possible, is where I believe we should be seeking separation rather than trying to impose our definitions on each other.Updated Oct 9, 2019, 10:24 PM

    TRUMP STATUS

    1. The senate conducts the trial and the house is attempting the pretense it can conduct a trial rather than issue an indictment. The reason is that the democrats don’t control the senate and the trial won’t go anywhere, which defeats the democrat’s purpose.

    2. Trump is forcing the House to vote at which point he has the same powers of subpoena as the congress, and can investigate the democratic interference in his campaign – and the entire deep state. The house won’t vote because the democrats won’t give him that power.

    3. The democrats want it over so it doesn’t spoil their election drive. Trump wants it to either end as a dead issue or draw so he can spend all the time he wants.

    4. No one is explaining this to the people in simple terms – at least I don’t see it.

    5. I expect the president’s strategy to win. We will see.
