    PROPERTARIANISM IS A SYSTEM OF THOUGHT JUST LIKE ARISTOTELIANISM WHICH IT SEEKS TO COMPLETE

    Let’s disambiguate Propertarianism a bit.

    We use the term “Propertarianism” as a brand name.

    But, Propertarianism as constructed is just a methodology: an Operational Logic of the human sciences.

    Technically speaking propertarianism refers to the unit of measurement for demonstrated interests (expenditures) in individual action and interpersonal and group cooperation.

    This methodology makes use of not less than the following reformation of the aristotelian categories and their merger with the sciences:

    (a) physics – (realism, naturalism, entropy, operationalism)

    (b) vitruvianism (the grammars) – metaphysics,

    (c) acquisitionism – psychology,

    (d) compatibilism – sociology,

    (e) propertarianism (reciprocity) – ethics

    (f) testimonialism – epistemology (logic, emp, oprer.)

    (g) Sovereigntarianism (rule of law) – politics

    (h) Adaptive Velocity – group strategy

    (i) Transcendence (eugenics, heroism, excellence, beauty) – Aesthetics

    As far as I now there is no other system of thought anywhere ear complete, nor one that is value neutral, other than aristotle’s attempt.

    SOVEREIGNTARIANISM

    Sovereigntarianism is a political methodology, or what we used to call philosophy, that uses the aristotelian-propertarian paradigm and methodology.

    PERFECT GOVERNMENT

    Perfect Government is a recommended organization of governments that can – like the roman- react to stress and war, operating as a growing concern – and distributing windfalls. This government differs from the modern in that it is less optimistic of human character, and suppresses falsehood and rent seeking of all kinds, and definnacializes the polity, and depoliticizes the polity, so that people are limited to the market of voluntary cooperation to improve their lives.

    This government is described using a set of levers so to speak (set of choices) that vary according to market demand for government, from the most authoritarian in war, to the most redistributive under windfalls, while at the same time eliminating the ability of individuals and groups to accumulate rents and corruption (calcification) that always and everywhere brings down a polities from the village to the empire.

    1. Propertarianism > Methodology

    2. Sovereigntarianism > Socio-legal methodology

    3. Perfect Government > Economic-political-military methodology.

    As far as I know there is no program as large, or as complete, or as scientific as Propertarianism in human history and the best we have so far is the set of empirical disciplines that have been as much a tragedy as a benefit to us. Because empiricism = correspondence it does not equal causality.

    Operationalism equals causality.

    Thanks. I hope this helps newbs.

    Why? Because we know people lie and why. In fact, the majority of work in legal cases ( like the majority of work I do counter lies by sophism, pseudoscience, and supernaturalism) is lie detection by the incremental disambiguation of context and deduction of incentives.

    @freedomismoral Do humans have the ability imitate (physical), empathize(emotional), sympathize (intellectual), of course, that’s why we are able to cooperate. Do juries test consistency, correspondence, rational incentive, and reciprocity, means, motive, opportunity, and intent? Yes.

    But in matters of argument, competition, conflict, or ir-reciprocity(criminal, unethical, immoral) your imagination makes no difference. Lying to yourself makes no difference. Lying to preserve a delusion makes no difference. Only action does. And actions demonstrate truth.

    @freedomismoral Metaphysics must means paradigm and paradigm just means a set of constant relations, but whether those constant relations correspond to reality, your imagination, your imagination of what you might do, is either demonstrable or not. It doesn’t matter when it’s just in your head.

    @freedomismoral Well courts do so every day in governance of human actions. You cannot make a truth claim about that which you cannot Testify. It’s simply not possible. You can find meaning, utility, satisfaction, sedation, you can find faith, but without demonstration you don’t know either.

    @freedomismoral Nope. It’s not testifiable. Can you submit it in court as evidence? Nope. Then it is indistinguishable from lie.
