(FB 1549470260 Timestamp) by John Horatio Fitzgerald –“You know this is a structural problem, not just policy, the polity failed to adapt. As Curt Doolittle explains here, it’s a failure of markets. “You get what you can from the market by voluntary exchange”, “We created a monopoly government and access to power, so we changed everybody from competing in markets in the service of each other to competing by lies deception, propaganda, gossip ridicule, shaming, pseudo science, pseudo rationalism, every possible means of deception so that we could get hold of that power…” — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSmtH9ERvUg

And every Empire from Alexander on has fallen, usually because on racial, ethnic, or religious tension. Ok, maybe not as bad as Communism, but it has never been successful. Singapore – since I quoted LKY – has been, is, and always will be at least 75% Chinese for this very reason.”— Sean Ring Disclosure: Iâm Catholic.

(FB 1549595684 Timestamp) ANOTHER LEGITIMATE CRITICISM Here is an other legit criticism via Richard Heathen: The catastrophic failure of our constitution to protect us from marxism, socialism, neoconservatism, postmodernism, and feminism under the pressure of universal enfranchisement and FPTP representative, majoritarian democracy, has soured all faith in our institutions, and driven the desire for a strong man – which is what history tells us will always happen. But I view this as an understandable but unnecessary fear. I will agree that democracy was a terrible tragedy, but the vulnerabilities were within our system, and they can be corrected and amended. We have the longest running governments in the modern world among the english speaking peoples, and the reason is that our form of government is contractual and open to continuous reform without catastrophic bloodshed – well, at least, we survive it. We can produce the most intolerant government in history with the greatest defenses of our people by simply providing market incentives to prosecute those who violate those those intolerances. I have more faith in our use of the courts and the law to circumvent the malincentives of the state and its bureaucracies, than I do of the malincentives of the state and its bureaucracies being constrained by their adherence to the law. More later.

(FB 1549735651 Timestamp) WHY CALLS FOR REVOLUTION AND CIVIL WAR —“Can you explain this call to violence, revolution, or civil war?”—Justin Ptak If enough people talk about it the general discourse changes sufficiently to discuss alternatives to the status quo.) Same as ‘the best way to prevent a war is to be ready to crush any opponent easily at all times”. The best way to bring an opponent to the negotiating table is the certainty (lower risk) that it is better than the alternative.
