The idea that communism means that everyone owns everything equally is retarded. Communes themselves don't do this. People with more stake get more ownership This corresponds to the first stage of Marxs theorized progession from capita

I'm just starting from first principles on a debate that has ended up being more about neurological orientation rather than anything substantive.

A commodity market may not be a pure prediction market but you can buy weather futures on most commodities market and a host of other predictions which are necessary for agricultural production. https://investor.cmegroup.com/

You can regulate the supply of a substance. Gambling is a human behavior. It's a normal human behavior. I don't understand the pearl clutching around gambling honestly.

To every proof, there is a corresponding program. This makes proofs expressible in a language made up of finite grammatical rules and terminal symbols. Knowledge accessible by proof is thus always a form of interpolating data whether made u

Gambling works and is normal in most of the world. No idea why the USA is puritanical about this. It's like the oldest business on the planet.

People's tax returns are essentially public (yes I know they're not allowed to disclose them). Didn't send the forms in with social security numbers. This absurd concern for privacy is silly in my opinion. The moment somethin

Kind of. I first of all did the entire return with it. So we went step by step and yes I fed the forms one at a time. So I filled in 1040 as best I could. Then just asked it what to do next at each step. It helps I've done it before so
