I can't imagine thinking that posting this on a public forum makes any sense at all. You have everything to lose by making statements like this, and nothing to gain.

Think it's part of the equality/blank-slate myth that everyone is the same and has the same potential and natural abilities.

Same here, with this exact reaction. "Why did I reenlist, I can't believe I would do that?" And I'm either deployed overseas back in combat or getting ready to leave. And I can't find my weapon or parts of my unifor

Neither does no planning and complete decentralization (no national industrial policy, no trade barriers, letting important supply chains move out of your control or even into the borders of your adversaries).

There's possibly a similar aspect to poker where you have to present a wide range of hands for your opponent to account for, whereas if you play tight then you become more predictable and you won't get action when you bet. With ch

If you pretend a platform for mass media, journalism, and public discourse that certainly affects domestic and international politics is trivial, sure. Just people huh? Not the Presidents, politicians, richest business men and high profile

Inside Job (2010) - documentary about the 2008 financial crisis and policies leading up to that years before. Sort of like the documentary version of The Big Short. Narrated by Matt Damon. Interesting and informative about the catalysts for
