  • What Is the Role of Business and Industry in Society?

    Apr 1, 2020, 1:19 PM (probably very important)

    —“Also do you have any writings you could point me to on your views on big business’ role in society? Namely, I do see cultural marxism and other factors at play throughout university and entertainment, but the pressures from big biz for cheap labor, for mass immigration of more customers etc. as the primary driving force behind our replacement. Does a mixed economy with strong tariffs and other incentives prevent this from happening in the future?”—

    BUSINESS(INDUSTRY): 1. The production of goods, services and information. 2. The normalization of middle class behavior (everyone is a potential customer) 3. The production of the possibility of the self organizing – civil- society. Business increases customer base, dependencies and alliances until everyone in the society is a customer, dependency, and alliance BIG BUSINESS(INDUSTRY) 1. The role of big business in society is to provide a durable sustainable revenue stream upon which to base the political revenue necessary for the incremental suppression of parasitism that makes possible the extension of trust and opportunity down into smaller and smaller producers, which in turn produces the middle class ethic which is the source of high trust – that is initiated by the militia. (important)

    1. Big businesses are difficult to compete with because they can ‘socialize’ costs of obtaining and holding customer relationships over time. So this ‘stability’ must be thought of as the economic equivalent of the military – defense of the economic territory. So just as the military creates a defensive wall against military conquest, big business creates a defensive wall against economic conquest.
      (Important!)

    2. Obviously big business can afford to pay for research and development. This is a minor role. Because big business cannot compete with the government for basic research. The government performs basic research industry applied research. And Small and Medium Business applies the results of basic research to niche (smaller) markets.

    4 (Limits) The problem evident throughout all of history is that the middle class (Business and industry) has no more incentive to limit it’s consumption of economic opportunity than the citizenry has incentive to limit it’s consumption of human and institutional capital. So this is the important insight of fascism and nationalism: that profit at national expense is a theft of capital: privatization of commons or socialization of losses.

    1. The same applies for the government. The state and finance sectors (and now the academic sector) will happily destroy the genetic human cultural institutional and civilizational capital through immigration and expansion. So this is the limit of all markets, and why free markets are always a fraud: either you are increasing domestic capital or not. If you are not then you are consuming it. And if you are consuming it then you are an uncontrolled growth: a cancer. Whether you are private or public or individual.

  • State Bureaucracies Must Organize for War

    Apr 1, 2020, 2:36 PM I make the same argument. the CDC, Homeland Security, and Disaster Relief Organization, and The Treasury are either creating war plans and holding war games or they are wasting our time and money. Bureaucracies run by constant process rather than project deliverables, war plans, and shocks

    —“In 2015, I urged world leaders in a TED talk to prepare for a pandemic the same way they prepare for war — by running simulations to find the cracks in the system,” Gates wrote. “As we’ve seen this year, we have a long way to go. But I still believe that if we make the right decisions now, informed by science, data and the experience of medical professionals, we can save lives and get the country back to work.”–

  • The Purpose of The Legitimate State

    Apr 3, 2020, 8:51 PM

    —“Third, safeguard the principles of the liberal world order. The founding legend of modern government is a walled city protected by powerful rulers, sometimes despotic, other times benevolent, yet always strong enough to protect the people from an external enemy. Enlightenment thinkers reframed this concept, arguing that the purpose of the legitimate state is to provide for the fundamental needs of the people: security, order, economic well-being, and justice. Individuals cannot secure these things on their own. The pandemic has prompted an anachronism, a revival of the walled city in an age when prosperity depends on global trade and movement of people.”—Kissinger

    NO. The purpose of the legitimate state is (a) to defend the people against the barbarian hordes, (b) defend the future generations against the fashions of the people. (c) increase the intergenerational human cultural civilizational capital. (d) adapt to crisis, peace, and windfalls. (((Cosmopolitianism))) is just barbarism.

  • We Forge the Individual Using the Furnace of The Group.

    —“Maybe we need to get rid of priestesses and instill Roman patriarchy throughout society. Oh wait, pagans always moan that was a bad thing.”—Rik Storey

    I don’t know what that means but if you mean every man a student and teacher, son and father, laborer and craftsman, soldier and warrior, sheriff and judge, legislator and sovereign, then (a) that’s pagan, and (b) that’s a good thing. 😉 The difference is the means by which we organize into those roles: Familial, Religious, Educational, Legal, or Military. We forge the individual using the furnace of the group.

  • The Eastern Orthodox Church Has Succeeded by Knowing Its Place and Function,

    Apr 10, 2020, 9:47 AM Probably not obvious, but the eastern orthodox church has succeeded by knowing its place and function, having smaller numbers, and so being less diverse, being a state religion and by proximity to hostiles (islam, turkey, the stans.). Catholic church doubled down on (a) rule, (b) bureaucracy, and (c) dogma, and (d) they failed at both rule at home and colonial rule abroad, and (e) the dogma which while elegant could not reform. The protestant churches couldn’t reform. The evangelicals reformed and restored christianity to it’s origins as folk religion not a political religion. Islam can’t reform. judaism needs pressure to reform. Buddhism hardly needs reform. Shintoism is perfect as it is, and a lesson for us all.
