  • Sovereignty: Requires Markets In Everything

    LIBERTY (SOVEREIGNTY): MARKETS IN EVERYTHING

    • Survival (competition)
    • Reproduction (Marriage)
    • Production (economy)
    • Commons (market govt)
    • Displute Resolution (natural law)
    • Group Evolutionary Strategy (Polities)

    Hayek was right of course. He could have taken it even farther. But he was right. The answer to Keynes(demand/spending) and Hayek(disinformation/misallocation) is solved by credit cards from the treasury – assuming liquidity isn’t predictable. It needs to remain a lottery of uncertainty. The problem they were struggling with was distribution. The financial system is a corrupt distributor, and state spending is even worse distributor of corruption.

  • Q&a: Justly Acquired Property

    —“So I guess my real question is this: do you draw a distinction between justly acquired property and unjustly acquired property? If not, aren’t you just making a convoluted defense of the “might makes right” argument?”— NATHANIEL I’m going to try to answer two questions. (a) might-makes-right (b) justly acquired property (a) might does not make right, but one cannot make right without might. What makes right is voluntary cooperation. Voluntary cooperation requires non-imposition of costs against that which one has acquired without the imposition of costs. (b) we impose no costs when we acquire property by discovery(homesteading), transformation, or productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary exchange, limited to externalities of the same constraint upon the imposition of costs. (c) What separates high trust propertarianism from low trust libertarianism, is the scope of property is not artificial in Propertarianism. It’s what’s necessary for a voluntary polity to form and persist. Curt Doolittle The Propertarian Institute

  • We Evolve A Reductions in Frictions and Costs

    Just as we evolve property from common to private; Just as we evolve the suppression of parasitism from criminal, to fraudulent, to free riding, to conspiratorial, to warfare; Just as we evolve argument from mysticism to reason, to rationalism, to empiricism, to testimonialism; We also evolve truth from justificationary, to moral, to legal, to scientific, to testimonial. Each thing we do removes frictions AND costs.

    ( edited by William L. Benge ) THE NEXT GREAT LEAP 🙂 “The next great leap in human civilization is not technology. it’s morality and law: truth telling. It will be as great a leap as science has been.” THE BAD AND THE UGLY — BUT NOT THE GOOD “And likewise I am quite certain that just as the mystics fought reason tooth and nail, and just as the religious and theological fought empiricism tooth and nail, and just as the spiritual fought darwin tooth and nail, and those who practice theology, rationalism, and pseudoscience, and justificationary deception will fight tooth and nail.” WHY? “Because, each of these groups profits from their lies.” THERE’$ LITERALLY NO EXCU$E FOR ALL THE GREAT LIE$ THEY CONTINUE TELLING TO MI$LEAD AND BILK MANKIND “But how many fundamental truths are there? (we have estimates in the range of a few hundred to less than two thousand). Why is it that people should be lied to and not taught truth, or spoken to, but not spoken to truthfully, or speak, and not speak truthfully? Why do we have any more right to pollute the informational commons than we do the other commons of air, water, and land? Why can we cause informational harm out of ignorance, yet we are prohibited from economic and criminal harm out of ignorance or not? What was the cost of literacy? What was the cost of creating rule of law? What was the cost of western high trust?” TOLERANCE FOR LIES IS COMPLICITY, FRAUD “Tolerance is an excuse to conflate convenience (cost) with conviction, in exhcange for false status signals, fraudueltly obtained, by the pretense of charity versus the evasion of the tax necessary for the preservation of a high-trust society and its benefits. The tolerant so to speak are just engaged in fraud and nothing more.”

  • The Law Of Nature Is The Law Of God.

    It is far harder to give moral men a license to kill than to avoid killing. But once possessed of that license and in the absence of fear of retaliation by his peers, and with the opportunity of accolades and status from his peers, the moral man is an unstoppable warrior. I have been endeavoring to provide moral men with moral license to kill, destroy, harm, and if necessary, subjugate, and even enslave, those who would break god’s law: natural law, and speak other than god’s language ‘natural truth’, and govern by other than god’s rule: rule of law. Are many gods. Just as there are many suns in the universe. But there is but one set of laws that the universe and we within it operate by. These laws constitute ‘the truth’, and they are the word of the one, and final god, beyond which no other god may transgress. Your minor gods will not help you when moral men, with gods language, gods laws, punish you and your gods, for transgressions.
