    Trump for King!!!!!

    (actually, not a bad idea)

    This history seems a bit biased, but it’s exciting none the less. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    His dad’s name was Fred Trump – who made his first fortune operating boom-town hotels, restaurants and brothels in the Northwestern United States. (Seattle!!!)

    Drumpf was born in 1869, to Katherina (Kober) and Christian Johannes Trump.in the old Pfalz town of Kallstadt, where his family worked in a vineyard,

    Trump emigrated to New York City in 1885 at the age of 16 with empty pockets and worked as a barber for six years. In 1891, he moved to Seattle, Washington, and established a “decadent” restaurant (likely to have also been a brothel) known as the “Poodle Dog” (identical in name and format to a restaurant in San Francisco). It was around this time that Trump anglicized his name to Frederick Trump, and became a naturalized United States citizen.

    In 1901, sensing the end of the gold rush and fearing a crackdown on prostitution, Trump sold his investments and used the proceeds to return to Germany.

    In 1902, Trump returned to Kallstadt to marry his old neighbor Elizabeth Christ (October 10, 1880 โ€“ June 6, 1966). German authorities determined that Trump had emigrated from Germany to avoid his tax and military-service obligations, and he and his pregnant wife were consequently expelled from the country.

    He returned to the United States and worked as a barber and restaurant manager in Woodhaven, Queens, where his sons Fred and John were born in 1905 and 1907, respectively.

    Trump died of pneumonia during the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic. At the time of his death, he was beginning to invest in real estate development in Queens; his wife and his son Fred would continue his real estate projects under the Elizabeth Trump & Son moniker.

    By the time he died in Queens at the age of 49, he had built up a fortune worth $31,642.54 – or around $542,000 in today’s money.

    He left his small fortune to his wife Elizabeth, who used it to go into business with her eldest son Fred Jr, who was just 15 at the time. The pair created the Trump empire, which is now headed by Fred Jr’s son, Donald.

  • Russia had no legal or economic reasons to invade Ukraine and conquer and seize

    http://sputniknews.com/politics/20151126/1030827768/turkey-russia-bosporus-strait.htmlSIGH…

    Russia had no legal or economic reasons to invade Ukraine and conquer and seize the Crimea (or the entirety of asia east of the Urals for that matter), nor to invade eastern europe and set them back on century of economic development, and four centuries of normative and cultural development.

    Russia has worked very hard to obtain and hold a warm water port and its only warm water ports are conquered territory and indefensible: Black Sea(Ukrainian), Koenigsburg (German/Polish), and Far Eastern (East Asian).

    Western man does not like taxes, because he is a moral man, and wants to prevent ill use of them – do no harm. Cosmopolitan man does not like taxes because he is an immoral man and wants to privatize them – do no good.

    THE PURPOSE OF FORMING A POLITY: DISCOUNTS

    Commons produce opportunities (lower opportunity costs) and reduce risk (reduce transaction costs), the purpose of which is to incentivize people to seize opportunities. In other words, it is not that the externalities are non-excludable (because many are) but that ***the purpose of forming a polity is the production of discounts on opportunity costs, transaction costs, and switching costs.*** This is the source of wealth. we are not wealthier in time and effort, we have used time and effort to decrease costs such that everything is cheaper in time and effort.

    Externalities may be non excludable, but the creation of negative externalities is open to prohibition, and universally prohibited. That’s what distinguishes ‘moral’ (external) and ‘ethical’ (internal). We prohibit both internal (unethical) and external (immoral) actions all the time in all cultures in all civilizations. (and we likewise fail to for that matter.)

    Lets define ‘underproduced’ as referring to a structure of production of a good or service that is impossible to construct under the voluntary organization of production.

    The method of producing such ‘underproduced’ goods then is subsidy. Which is exactly how we do it. We take money from other structures of production (distort them), and we instead buy (incentivize) people to produce the ‘underproduced’ good or service. This is called a mixed economy. And everywhere I know of practices a mixed economy. The question I think at hand, is not whether a mixed economy in fact produces greater wealth for all members, it is whether acts of parasitism and genetic warfare are employed within this mixed economy because of the consequences of reliance upon monopoly government. And I think the vote is in: yes. Democracy is used by the worst people to prey upon the best.

    There is no value in burning middle and upper class genes to increase lower middle and lower class genes. And that is what we are doing. That is all we are doing, when we engage in producing ‘unproducables’.
