  • Different Economies for Different Classes

    Q&A: CURT: DIFFERENT ECONOMIES FOR DIFFERENT CLASSES? —“Could you elaborate on the concept of different economies for different classes? Does this mean laws can be enforced differently on different classes?”—John Zebley No it just means that the working and middle class and upper middle class market of voluntarily organized production does not account for the various commons produced by the people who make possible the voluntary organization of production (the market) by NOT engaging in criminal, unethical, immoral, and conspiratorial actions – and paying a high cost of doing so. Nor does the middle class market account for the vast extractions performed by the upper and elite class market which appears almost entirely extractive, and of trivial if any value. The working and laboring classes and the underclass contribute mostly by consuming (creating demand), policing each other, policing the commons, and serving in various hazardous capacities. But this is costly for them. And if they have access to consumption but not access to production then the market is ‘failing’ to pay them for what the market needs of them: behaving in the interest of the market. The same is true for the upper and elite classes most of whom benefit from tax revenues of questionable if not negative value, and the financial classes who benefit from our archaic liquidity distribution system in which they actually provide zero if not negative value.(really).

    SO that may be a lot to grasp. But the classical liberal economic system – as well as the keynesian and new keyensian, fails to account for externalities paid for by the underclasses, and rents privatized by the upper classes. The point is not so much that we need markets, but that by cherry picking what we measure, we legitimize the positive externalities of the middle class market, but fail to compensate the lower class market, and unjustly compensate the upper class market. So it’s not a matter of different law. It’s a matter of insufficiently accounting for the very different inputs and outputs of the different classes. I mean the whole world knows the middle classes generate prosperity. That’s settled science. But that doesn’t mean the middle class market and profit and loss account for the full inputs and outputs that make the middle class economy possible.

  • Definition: Aristocracy

    “Define aristocracy. As far as i know it means rule by meritocracy. So one is a member of the aristocracy as long as one joins the franchise and demonstrates his merit. Now, that is different from saying ‘nobility‘. Aristocracy is not synonymous with nobility. Although some abuse the terms and confuse ‘aristocrat’ with ‘nobility’ this is merely an error. Although In some of the literature the nobility(priesthood) and the aristocracy(martial) are two different classes. That said, there are two forms of nobility: awarded and earned. One can join the nobility by creating a persistent family with persistent managerial position. This is a natural aristocracy of natural nobility. One can also be ennobled formally, in order to increase your chances of persisting your family into natural nobility.

    Now, my family history is quite old, and from the literate, protestant preacher, commercial managerial, military officer, and lesser political classes. So I consider myself in the ‘natural’ middle class (organizers) rather than mere middle ‘consumer’ class. But in the ‘history books’ my family is referred to as ‘lesser aristocracy’. Which I translate to ‘managerial class’ that performs military service. Now, there is also the “Romantic” and aesthetic fantasy either from the selfish-dominance or public-heroic that aristocracy refers to a spiritual belief, rather than empirically demonstrated reality. And I am fine with this wet dream as long as it does not interfere with reality. We need to fabricate these fantasies to inspire the soldiery to risk and achievement. But it is just anotehr form of romanticism. And my function is to teach how to rule, not write songs, poetry, and propaganda.” – Curt Doolittle.

  • We Just Prosecute

    HOW DO WE CONVINCE THE LEFT? WE DON’T. We do not seek to convince. We seek to prosecute. If you fail to convince you walk away. if you fail to prosecute you die. if you succeed in prosecution, you punish. If punishment fails, you kill.

  • “What about regulation? Can you offer an explanation in Propertarian terms?”—

    —“What about regulation? Can you offer an explanation in Propertarian terms?”— Jeremie Makell

    EXCELLENT QUESTION

    Law is discovered, contracts are constructed with terms. Regulations cannot exist unless provided by an insurer of the contract. So as far as I know only Discovered Law, Strictly constructed productive contract, and strictly constructed insurance contract, can exist.

    The reason the state ‘got into the regulatory business’ is that the primary function of the state has been as the insurer of last resort.

    My position is that the state implicitly insures by the court of law, all insurers within the domain.

    And that as the insurer of last resort, rescuing an insurer in the common interest, is accomplished by just another contract.

    A contract cannot be made without the ability to ensure restitution and reparation in case of failure.

    Under this model there is no agent that can issue regulations except the insurer. And as an insurer these are not ‘regulations’ but simply contract terms.

    So regulations cease to exist under propertarianism since only a monopoly can create regulations – and there exist no monopolies other than the monopoly of the one law of natural law of cooperation.

    Thinking about… while judges and kings limit, the commercial class leads by pragmatism, and the ‘talking’ classes lead by utopianism, is the reason leaders of any kind lie so often, because equilibrial forces will counter any actions men take? IOW, is it to promise higher returns at lower effort than are possible with truth and the effort necessary for truthful solutions?
