Well the best in class of developed countries. The US does have the largest military, political hegemony, economic hegemony, and a huge amount of cultural influence compared to other sovereigns. With that in mind the standard I have is high

Let's just face it, extremely large and complex systems are unwieldy and unpredictable. You have incredible technical and regulatory debt, and eventually you need to start from scratch whether you like it or not. You don't have to

This is just an accidental filter for our species. I mean, look at Japan. It has decreasing amounts of young people wanting to procreate or socially interact. The people who can handle junk food, tv, porn, and the internet, will carry on. M

Agreed. The fallacies are simply a toolset for confirmation bias IMO. Personally, I think cognitive dissonance is a major problem. People in general have opinion set A at any given moment, and when a direct contradiction to one opinion in s

It's always nice to see the fallacies of debate promoted so we can hopefully all improve in our exchanging of ideas. Ones to really watch out for IMO are Appeal to Emotion and Ad Hominem. These two are the most used fallacies in intern

Good points. The main differences I think between a sustainable economy and unsustainable one is between our Bagehotian Banking model versus a more stable Mises Banking model. Link to an article that compares them in detail: http:/&#x

I think it does have something to do with technology, in the sense of how technology, which is a neutral toolset, is being used by the powerful. For instance, Luddite's first paragraph in wikipedia: > The Luddites were 19th-century

You make good points. I agree with your point on gold. I was just highlighting the fact that confidence is what is key, and people are not 100% rationale, which can lead to weird confidence, whether that means no confidence for a good syste

I think some fans of gold don't see the benefits of the network (and network effect) of bitcoin. That said, if it becomes too much of a liability to store (hackers, taxes, transmission) in the future without the growth, then it'll
