    The lower your demographic distribution the higher demand for authority to substitute for trust and rule of law. The higher your trust the lower the demand for authority as a substitute for trust and rule of law. The only means of producing trust and rule of law is sufficiently large middle class that generates demand for rule of law in order to construct the voluntary organization of production, distribution, and trade, we call capitalism – or what the ordinary person calls ‘an economy’.

    So the dispute between capitalism and socialism was always a (((Lie))), it has always been between consistent rule of law independent of man, and arbitrary rule by man.

  • SORRY FASCISM WON: AUTHORITARIAN STATE CAPITALISM = NATIONAL SOCIALISM = FASCISM

    SORRY FASCISM WON: AUTHORITARIAN STATE CAPITALISM = NATIONAL SOCIALISM = FASCISM

    Fascism didn’t fail. Fascism won. The entire world has chosen fascism: National Socialism with it’s extreme intolerance for competition. EVERY polity in the world is moving to ending political competition as dead weight, and is forcing all competition into the marketplace where it is constructive. Those groups that choose fascism (national socialism, or what we call, in order to preserve the gated institutional narrative ‘state capitalism’), are dominating (china, japan, korea) are reducing costs by enforcing fascism (state capitalism, national socialism). I mean, the american left is fascist which is ironic as hell. The american right is not, it’s reciprocal. which is ironic as hell. That said, the chinese tried communism and then moved to fascism, and the movement toward democracy ended in 92 right after the wall fell.

  • Curt Doolittle updated his status.

    Studying legal papers and theory you quickly learn that law is ignorant of economics and scale. You learn that the problems lawyers and the courts face are problems of economics and scale. You learn that they are trying to solve a social science problem with a crude instrument that changes slowly. Jurist and Lawyers have seen the atomic but not the aggregate. and so it creates a kind of disciplinary blindness. The problem with the profession is that while we have common and continental law, we have lost or only just discovered natural tort law, which solves problems of juridical decision making, where conflating the law with legislation and regulation and to some degree command, create all those problems of interpretation.

    Moral intuition is for the peasantry. The rest of us, whether king, general, minister,financier, or entrepreneur, must calculate.

    I am not trying to be scary but to speak in actionable terms. it is a mistake to think that this coming revolution will be fought as the civil rights movements and the french-revolution through the 20th century movements have been fought.

    Those were fights of classes using gunpowder against people. The current era is all against all, eroding the economy and infrastructure, and letting the ‘population load’ of modernity crash into chaos.

    I mean, look at history, but, the reason the chinese ended up with 100x the fatalities in war was population load.

    (a) she isn’t going to make it another two years, and (b) it’s a near certainty trump will be reelected (c) so she can’t last six – zero chance.
