Not sure how that's utopic. I escaped an overpriced west coast hell hole by working on a fishing boat. Hard work but it works.

Where I live now you can 3d print an unregistered and unserialized pistol then stuff it under your shirt (loaded) and walk into the unsecured part of a public airport without breaking the law, all with zero paperwork or licenses or checks.

How about I see an interesting street hustler in Munich and put a photo of him on my blog? If something like that is illegal I'd quickly find our two cultures are absolutely incompatible with my continued residence.

Most of Europe (notable exception france), Canada, and Australia will happily betray their own citizens to extradition to foreign countries. If things get bad enough that science immigration becomes 'defection' they'd be saf

Go to the docks, eventually someone might need a hand on a yacht/sailboat, even if it takes awhile.

Maybe this varies but people I know with adhd had to see or beg a doc every 6 months to renew a script, which is a money generator for the doctor. The gross margin on amphetamine salts even at $20 must be insanely high. We're talking a

Fundamentally we want to be adapted to our environment. As the conditions for success change, what was prior adaptive is now maladaptive disorder. Being institutionalized in a school after spending hundreds of thousands/millions year

The moral hazard is pretty clear. Testing is profitable and so are the drugs. If they are wrong, there is no penalty. For the same reason an optometrist lied about my perfect vision as a child and conned my parents into glasses I never u

Elon got started with zip2 when South African socialists induced capital flight causing elons dad to send his money and Elon to the USA/Canada.

Elon came here under a similar story. The party in significant power cheers on 'kill the boer [farmer]' ( and 'redistribute' their capital to the poor). He escaped to here. It's admirable he wants to prevent Amer

I bypassed codes under an owner/builder exception. No inspections no building plans basically no regulatory costs. I found ultra cheap land with an unproven poorly documented but already drilled well share that turned out to be good (

It's generally cheaper to buy land in someplace with shit schools then pay for a nice private school, especially somewhere like Chicago.

Many of our immigrant families crossed the Darien Gap by foot for new opportunities. Fortunately there are roads to flyover country. If you have a thumb, escape is possible. Much of my family did it with far less resources and as many fa

Which is why they will leave with mobile wealth before the act goes into effect, taking away the capital workers use to earn a living. Property taxes on land and fixed structures work well as they cant run away in a practical way.

This is exactly it. Notice for instance how homeowners will vote to allow ADUs but not to allow splitting off the ADU as a separate deed that would allow someone else a piece of competing ownership. They want all the upside of additional

Trades licensing, tightening codes, inspections,zoning, inspection, planning, environmental regulation, and water/well shenanigans are the reason for unaffordable housing. Plenty of cheap land near jobs, land not a meaningful constrai

Ah yes absolutely. Under no system is anyone safe if they're unable to bear arms to protect themselves/family, they will be systematically vulnerable or vulnerable to the next bandit. This just becomes more visible under disfunc

Im sure when I fought for the YPG Assad might have liked that, unfortunately all the bogus surveillance in the world is no use when your army cannot enforce their borders or sovereignty. In any case I saw guys with AKs posting to Facebook,

The trouble is people thinking it can be fixed with the system. I've been to a few dictatorships, none of them had the slightest clue what I was doing because the government was too poor and distracted with stuff like militias at thei

Profiting from (others') labor is basically every business in the US, and sex work is rapidly being seen as something women are allowed to do. I see it as matching what people would vote for were it we had a direct democracy.

If it were prosecuted the same way as the peasants, the direction of prosecution is generally in the direction of the person who granted access, as asking people to do illegal stuff seems to be considered fair game bait to get people prosec

People who think spending had been out of control for 50 years, your original question, generally are against the 30s era expansion of federal government which is the genesis of the modern federal spending expansion. Generally if 50,then at

Sure but the question is about the law that the trigger pullers enforce. If the laborer can invest his retirement rather than having it taken, redistribute, then told if there is no Trump v2 maybe there will be something for him -- maybe h

The question isn't so much whether social spending is a personal investment but rather whether trigger pullers with badges and automatic weapons enforce it or the laborer personally invests as he sees fit in ways that enable social cha

It depends how you word it. 'Would you rather put your money in stock indexes or pay out N shares of 1/N of your contribution to old people then hope and pray the same is done for you' ( which is more or less the realistic

Non war times pre 1913, federal spending was such a low percent of gdp as to barely be noticeable, generally far below 5%. The 15%+ I pay now is painful, 2% would barely be noticed. Especially in the context I have to pay (state) taxes on
