    –“Q: CURT: [Was] the catholic church was a land scheme between families during the Middle Ages?”–
    Yes. The simple version: Primogeniture meant that the family landholdings, and therefore its wealth, would remain intact, preserving the intergenerational persistence of the family and it’s influence. This meant that ‘second sons and such’ went into the military or the clergy. The nobility and aristocracy maintained local churches. The second sons would enter the church. The families would then acquire land for the church, or donate to the church to acquire land. The church would then rent land to the peasantry. And this would provide income for the ‘second sons’. By the late middle ages the church owned half of the land in europe. This in turn gave rise to resistance against the church because of its control over land and therefore the economy. This is why the restoration of trade depreciated the value of land and the influence of the church and transferred wealth to the emerging middle and upper middle classes.
    While you might criticize this system on some moral ground that would be a mistake. The system was perhaps the most benevolent and interdependent system man has ever developed outside of the pervasive corruption of the church (as with any human organization), and that the corruption of the church, as in all instances of corruption, was magnified in the cities even though it’s function in the rural regions retained value.

    There is a very simple economic law: all increases in income will be absorbed by rent and mortgage rates. In addition the hazard is greater than the benefit, in that it will expand to the natural margin. In other words, no it’s not possible, and it never will be.

    TRUSTS VS LLC, S-CORP, C-CORP
    A trust requires someone trustworthy to manage it: a trustee. This is the only ‘risk’.
    If a trustee steals from a trust it is a crime and prosecutable.
    A trust may operate for financial gain.
    A trust main hold a corporation as an asset.
    A trust is taxed like an individual taxpayer.
    A group of people or families can essentially contribute assets to a trust to protect them.
    If assets are placed in an irrevocable trust before marriage, then they are insulated from spousal seizure during divorce proceedings – if specified in the trust. (Some people might want those assets to go to a spouse at death for example.)
    Beneficiaries can leverage assets in trust for the purpose of credit.
    Even Houses can be placed into trust.
    If a trust does not distribute income, it pays tax at the rate of the total income from the trust. A trust can distribute income and individuals pay tax according to the tax rate of the individual parties, and as such not force all parties to pay the tax rate of the aggregate income of the trust.

    Basic Benefits:
    1) asset protection.
    2) probate evasion and intergenerational transfer.

    Limits Too Benefits:
    1) If a beneficiary has too much control over the trust (such as a self-settled trust where the grantor is also a beneficiary), creditors may argue that the assets should be available to satisfy the beneficiary’s debts.
    2) Alimony and Child Support: Courts may order distributions from a trust to satisfy alimony, child support, or other family law obligations, particularly if the trust was funded by the grantor.
    3) Piercing the Trust Veil: In some cases, courts may “pierce the trust veil” if they determine that the trust is essentially a sham or an alter ego of the grantor, meaning it is not being used for legitimate asset protection or estate planning purposes.

    So, effectively, joining a large scale trust is equivalent to joining a medieval monastery. Which is fascinating. 😉

  • FOR THOSE QUESTIONING HAIDT’S MORAL FOUNDATIONS (@JonHaidt) Unfortunately life’s

    FOR THOSE QUESTIONING HAIDT’S MORAL FOUNDATIONS (@JonHaidt)
    Unfortunately life’s experience, the study of philosophy and history – as well as the questionable social sciences, are insufficient to understand Haidt is correct. We need genetics, neuroscience, cognitive science, behavioral economics, and evolutionary development.
    🙁 And thats a lot of ‘need’, at too high a cost, for most people to satisfy.

    Sex differences are unfortunately one of the specializations I’ve had to develop in my research on the institutionalization of lying and group differences in their strategies of ‘lying’. And sex differences in lying is a terrifying nietzchean void that exposes too much of human nature for most of us to willingly tolerate.

    Explanation
    Here is the outline of the relationship between genetics, moral bias, and resulting political bias.

    1) The sex differences are:
    – Feminine vs Masculine
    – Lateral (more) vs longitudinal Brain Organization (fast)
    – In Time (now) vs Over Time (then)
    – Direct (perceptible) vs Abstract (predicted) Causality
    – Empathizing vs Systematizing
    – Experience vs Consequence
    – HyperConsuming vs Capitalizing
    – Devotion in time vs Loyalty over time
    – Special Pleading/asymmetry vs Consistency/symmetry Status by Consumption w/o responsibility vs Status by Capitalizing with responsibility for capital
    – Irresponsibility vs Responsibility for Commons
    – One/Few vs Populations/Many Small
    – Scale vs Large Scale
    – Prey(Submission) vs Preditor(Dominance)
    – Herd vs Packs Global vs National
    – Dysgenic vs Eugenic
    – Devolutionary vs Evolutionary
    See: https://t.co/YkDHuL6Pgt

    2) Moral Foundations As Sex Differences in Resource Dependence (Capital): The moral foundations explain the capital that the sexes evolved to guarantee status and reproduction given the asymmetry of the sexes.
    See: https://t.co/1vHb48UoNs

    3) Political Bias is the Result of those same differnces: The left is biased to the feminine cognitive emotional bias and the right to the masculine cognitive emotional bias.
    See: https://t.co/BmCeTKZjTd

    4) Sex Differences We Observe in Demonstrated Behavior In Moral and Political Bias:
    – The feminine left seeks as the feminine does to maximize consumption especially of attention and signalling as a reproductive and consumption maximization strategy by parasitically extracting surpluses they cannot produce, from males who can, without exchange, or exchange at the lowest cost, with the most devotion in time, with the least ingroup loyalty over time, reflecting the female reproductive and evolutionary strategy.
    – The masculine right seeks as the masculine does to accumulate capital for the purpose of attracting the feminine at the least cost, the most loyalty AND the most ingroup loyalty over time, reflecting the male reproductive and evolutionary strategy.

    Its Universal
    This is precisely what we see. Everywhere. Throughout all of time. Across all civilizations.

    Even if, as in a popular topic of the current year, because of fragility of sexual development, whether in-utero, early development, later trauma, or dysphoria, when we test those whose sexual preference reverses from their genetic sex, their brain is visibly operating (fMRI) in the mode of their genetic sex, and so is their cognition even though their valence and expression varies to suit their preference.

    Closing
    Now that does NOT mean that haidt fully explains such matters as I have outlined here. He doesn’t. And it doesn’t mean he doesn’t instead communicate a normal bias. But it means not only isn’t he wrong, but it’s effectively that he CAN’T be wrong.

    My suspicion is that it’s common to interpret his work as if the BIASES are absolutes rather than bias in distribution between the feminine(progressive), ascendant male (libertarian), and dominant male (conservative)

    Feel free to ask any questions.

    SEX DIFFERENCES IN CRIMINALITY
    The mistake here is in the scope of property against one has committed a crime. If. you look at private property men excel in that crime, but if you look at common property women excel at that crime. Since my(our) work accounts for ALL capital, whether private, shareholder, common, informal common, or formal institutional common, women destroy that capital just as devastatingly as men do physical capital in war.
