The only reason courts have authority to arbitrate disputes is because they are backed up by the will and authority of the government, which in turn has a monopoly on the use of force in society.

by corporate_shi11 7y ago
Exactly. Rules must always be enforced by some higher authority. Because the highest functional units of governance are nations, this means that there will always have to be some "most powerful" nation enforcing order.

I do not law enforcement should have a monopoly, I believe it should have access to communications in the same way it has access to someone's home or personal property: with a search warrant. Thus one has privacy, except in specific ci

I'm not sure where you gathered that I am against Freedom of the Press and the Right to Keep and Bear Arms? I am a staunch supporter of them. What I oppose is encryption that renders potentially criminal communication inaccessible to l

And yet, just last year over 100 Mexican politicians were murdered by cartels. The Mexican army itself has lost battles to the cartels as their influence steadily grows. Many municipalities in Mexico defer to the cartels in which true power

Yes, encouraging everyone to vote is bad. I agree with many of the Founders that the people often get in their own way, not thinking rationally and focusing only on the short term. The will and petty desire of the mob needs to be balanced a

Oftentimes systemic crime manifests more as an erosion of trust in institutions and the healthy functioning of a society than as something which impacts individuals in a direct way on a regular basis. For instance, consider Mexican organize

A popular vote would be awful. Would incentivize just campaigning to get as many people to vote as possible in the highest density population centers, meanwhile most people don't even pay attention to politics and have no interest in i

Unfortunately many people can't even accept that voter ID cards, which are used throughout the developed (and developing) world are reasonable means for securing elections. I gave up hope for reasonable discussions with "the other

Is this really that surprising? I thought that the CMB distribution of matter displays a proto-structure that matches with what we observe today, meaning the large scale structure and congruent behavior we observe is just the result of the

What will probably happen is weapons for Taiwan in exchange for TSMC moving some production to the US.

I'm more interested in the "Top Secret" slideshow mentioned by the Navy. Perhaps more information about these UFO's was gathered by the Nimitz than has already been revealed.

All of what you say is true. And I believe that social media platforms deplatforming people according to arbitrary judgements or public pressure is unacceptable in a free society. It deviates from the "right equilibrium".

Great, I would like to see people deplatformed for advocating illegal immigration and racism against white people. Such people are rampant on social media, yet I doubt many of the same people eager to get Moleyneux deplatformed would be as

"Hate speech" is one of the most abused terms in political discourse today, so often being used by people as a mere political cudgel. Ignoring that for a moment, how is Moleyneux preventing others from reaching an audience, which

This is an attack on free speech. "Just use a different service!" people will say. Great, until other services also terminate your account. Yes these are private companies, but a very small number of them have tremendous control o

The dissonances are more between people within states, between cities and rural areas in particular. It's very unlikely there is a civil war or any type of sundering of the Union anytime soon.

Why do you call these "excesses"? What would not be excess?

If - in America - we stopped bringing in millions of poor and uneducated young working age people every year - legally and illegally - wages would rise. This is common sense and supported by research [0]. [0]: https://cis.org&#x2

Your strategy still suffers from the unattractive aspect of behavior constraint. Human civilisation serves to enable us, not to constrain us. Regulation on the management of fishing nets is far more preferable to me than just advocating peo

Just one reason: imitation beef is often highly processed, while beef itself is all natural.

Yes, but people take it as if it's not, as if there is some scientific basis for calling certain groups "marginalized".

by corporate_shi11 7y ago
Using the term "marginalized communities" as a broad descriptor for people with a certain skin color in America is misguided and counterproductive. It paints a distorted view of reality and is a political statement more than anyth

Paid ads on social media are interesting because sometimes you get lucky with an ad and it goes viral/attracts a lot of sales, but often it doesn't. You have to experiment and know your market.

If you just care about hitting the $2000 mark, optimizing for time and effort, I'd say just find a product to sell on Amazon and market the hell out of it on Facebook and Instagram. Run paid ads and make up for small margins with high
