    DEFINING SOCIALISM FOR YANG

    —“Journalists who come to Des Moines tomorrow with an open mind will have those minds blown. #Yangapalooza

    secure the center secure the future”—@AndrewYang

    —“Its not socialist to tax big tech companies and give everyone a $1,00 a month. Everyone gets it, its pay for with technology. Its not socialist!”— @ironpatriot2016

    —“Curt?”—

    Rule of law = Sovereignty, Property(Demonstrated Interest), Reciprocity, Court,Testimony, Jury, Resulting in markets.

    Socialism = Borrowing by the state, to make investments by the state, in industries producible by the state, and the redistribution of earnings into the commons.

    Authoritarianism = Borrowing by individuals, Investment by individuals, in industries producible by individuals, producing returns for individuals, that is appropriated (stolen) by the state, and redistributed to non-borrowers, investors, producers.

    The principle means by which jews,christians,muslims, in the old world, and marxists, postmodernists, and feminists in the modern world, is to use words people don’t comprehend in operational terms, to conduct false promises by sophisms that do little but bait fools into hazard.

    Unfortunately there are a lot of fools to bait into hazard.

    Unfortunately we let them vote into a single house of representatives, creating rule by majority-of-fools best deceived by false promise.

    When if we had created houses for commoners, and women we could debate and trade.

    I would happily debate Andrew because I am not aware of anyone else living who understands issues of modernity as well as I do. Because some of his desire can be produced by moral rather than immoral means. But really, he’s not very smart he just says ‘free stuff!’ for attention.

    And fools come for the bait.

  • I SAID … DECLINING MARRIAGE INCENTIVES AND MALE WITHDRAWAL FROM THE LABOR FORC

    —“Why have so many young men withdrawn from the U.S. labor force since 1965? This paper presents a model in which men invest time in employment to enhance their value as marriage partners.

    When the marriage market return on this investment declines, young men’s employment declines as well, in preparation for a less favorable marriage market.

    Taking this prediction to data, I show that fewer young men sought employment after TWO interventions that reduced the value of gender-role-specialization within marriage:

    i) the adoption of unilateral divorce legislation, and

    ii) demand-driven improvements in women’s employment opportunities.

    I then show, using a structural estimation, that half of the employment effect of a labor market shock to men’s wages is determined by endogenous adjustment of the marriage market to the shock.

    These findings establish the changing marriage market as an important driver of decline in young men’s labor market involvement.

    That is from the job market paper of Ariel J. Binder, job market candidate from the University of Michigan.

    THE ECONOMICS AND ETHICS OF ABRAHAMIC RELIGIONS

    (this one is going to hurt. hold on to something)

    There is no god. Only the god imagined by the faithful such that they preserve the peace between them by prohibition on variation in strategy, and prohibition on debate, and prohibition on learning, and prohibition on innovation and evolution. It’s a contract with one another written in fiction.

    I agree that there is value to the faithful in the production of psychological mindfulness from certainty, conformity, under this contract written in fiction. It re-creates the safety of the herd for those who lack agency, by casting submission, conformity, stagnation as heroic.

    I also understand that there is value in the freedom from emotional burden, intellectual burden, that the rest of us bear on behalf of Christians, who are nothing but free-riders – Christians ‘free ride’ on our emotional, and mental hard labors.

    The feminine christian perpetuates the female reproductive strategy of worrying only about the safety of her nest, while the men do the hard labor of transforming reality into safety and resources which she can spend on her nest, herself, her offspring.

    Yet as christians daily demonstrate, she maintains utility in hostility to his breaking of her illusion, because then she would have to acknowledge the debt, and provide something in trade.

    Y’all are parasites, liars, and thieves unless you fight – hard, and soon. Just parasites.

    Why do you think islamism, marxism, feminism, and postmodernism, make the same promise of equality, in exchange for the same contract written in fiction, that the will work together to live parasitically upon the emotional and intellectual efforts of ‘men’: The Aristocracy.

    So pay your way.

    I am pretty sure I’ve eliminated the ability to engage in rent seeking and corruption within the means available in the current era and on the current horizon – that does not mean someone won’t invent a new way that they can get away with for a time.

The question is whether one is contributing to innovation, productivity and profitability or whether on is profiting from rent seeking corruption.

    EUGENICS IN P-LAW

    (Curt Doolittle)

    The only eugenic process Natural Law relies upon is markets. in other words, if you (your family) is self supporting, and not engaging in irreciprocity, we have no other means of testing your fitness other than demonstrated fitness.

    If you (your family) is not self supporting, an engages in irreciprocity, no matter your excuse, then you are in fact, demonstrating unfitness.

    (Bill Joslin)

    Fitness being akin to “good” – anything not unfit, is fit. Fitness remains undecidable (only demonstrable) because of the causal density and unpredictability of future outcomes. But unfitness remains a provisional known (a known subject to being updated with new information).

    This the demarcation between HARD eugenics (attempting direct control over natural eugenics) and SOFT P-Eugenics would be “anything not unfit remains fit (a fitness candidate) – or rather, we P-eugenics are achieved by NOT practicing dysgenics.

    (Curt Doolittle)

    P-law is via negativa, meaning do not reproduce dysgenically, it is not via-positiva, meaning culling of people. It does leave open the possibility of termination for catastrophic birth defects. We don’t answer the question of abortion because it is undecidable under law. It is only decidable within a polity.

    P-law does not prohibit genetic innovation (Transhuanism) as long as it reversible in the next generation and warranteed.

    TESTOSTERONE

    (Curt Doolittle)

    The generational sink in testosterone levels as far as I know, is almost entirely due to failure to exercise and engage in dominance play, and can be restored by physical activity – we know this because we see people do it every day. THere is some negativity to BPA and other chemicals but tis is as easily rectified as requiring all foods to be shipped (more expensively, and less environmentally costly ) in glass containers.

    (Bill Joslin)

    Drop in testosterone relates to prolonged.low level stress, or rather a higher baseline stress level – for example the constant stimulus of living in urban centers, or prolonged financial stress…i.e. anomie

    Also – occupations that have intermittent physical stress coupled with enough recovery time, tend to elevate testosterone. for example: jobs which include physical exertion but don’t include “taking work home with you” (no worrying about after hours.)
