  • Vitruvianism

    I call it Vitruvianism in honor of Davinci’s Vitruivan Man.

    —“Man is the System of Weights and Measures for all things Human”—

    But the first man to say it:

    —“Man is the measure of all things.”— Protagoras

  • The Post Marx-Keynes Economy: Our Restoration

    —“There’s plenty wrong with GDP as a global measure of system performance. One of those problems is that no one has yet to come up with a better one.”—Duke Newcomb

    Income != balance sheet. That’s the problem. (Really). GDP P/C @ PPP = Standard of living. Change in Balance Sheet = Gain or Loss (productivity); GDP = Debt Capacity = Military Capacity = Coercive Capacity and that’s all it means. The problem is false productivity, were in consumption of capital is obscured by velocity, in order to maintain keynesian employment as a (bad) means of restoring economic velocity (which is the error) – where under digital and fiat money, liquidity distribution directly to the people will make employment a measure only of demographic utility (which is what the left is afraid of) and the correction of which (as I recommend) will re-suppress immigration, and re-suppress underclass reproduction, and restore middle class reproduction.The only way to increase wealth in this model is reproduction of the middle class, employment of young and old, payment for labor necessary to create an aesthetic commons, one child policy for those who are dependent, and following the japanese in automation.

  • Yes. We Do It All the Time. Raven’s Matrices.

    —“Is intuitive capacity measurable?”–James Lyons Sr.

    Yes. We do it all the time. Raven’s Matrices. That said, general knowledge combined with ordinary ability, and intellectual honesty will always achieve more than exceptional ability in the absence of general knowledge and intellectual honesty. Intelligence is only enough for complexity. Conscientiousness is only enough to work hard on a problem. Intellectual honesty is required to come to the right conclusion.

    Let’s be clear: The databases used across the world for tracking terrorism (I know them), do not distinguish between activism, rebellion, or warfare. They only measure whether a group engages in violence. ANTIFA always engage in violence – and we know that you cover for them.
