Well, salaries paid in full would certainly give more power to the taxpayer who would in turn demand more accountabilty from the politican. Perhaps the politician in your story is a bit biased and is spreading FUD.

The same in electronic music since there are many repeating sounds. 128kbps just sounds bad, especially on a proper sound system.

Exactly! Legislation is an extremely noisy process. On a side note, I guess there is also some security against "retrospectively irrational" decision making in that noise as well.. I wonder though if there is any research made on

I'm not from the USA as I see you've probably presumed, also labour markets and internal politics are vast and different form country to country. You stated very explicitly "Each and every employee law" which I contraste

Well we're most certainly in a bubble and it is not the first nor the last one in cryptospace. It often happens when there is such a big influx of new agents on the market. Seeing crypto hype/doom articles on your random facebook

Regarding trust, have you heard of the Rai stones [0] from the island of Yap in Micronesia? From the wiki article: The extrinsic (perceived) value of a specific stone is based not only on its size and craftsmanship, but also on its history

Not an olive expert, but in Croatia (and probably the rest of Europe - Mediterranean) AFAIK green olives are picked in autumn, and black ones, that is full ripe ones, are picked in November and December. Those olives are used for the produc

There are no perfect rules nor there is perfect law. The hard fork was simply an abandonment of an obviously unjust law, a revolution really. The people voted with their feet, and the current market cap is an indicator of where those votes

Of course! Customs and other legal (based on moral) norms are basically the primary source of law or of its interpretation. Human systems based on rigid, or even utopian (that is totalitarian in practice) rules simply cannot handle the comp

Nice article. You are right in implying that we do not fully grasp the dynamics of this whole play, however that genepool argument is not a good one. Just beacuse something exists does not mean it's good or useful or advantageous in so

Apples and oranges. The effect of a government bankruptcy on the economy and the society (present and future) is not really comparable to the effect of a bankruptcy amongst individual economic agents. Those are completely different scales.

Yes on that scale, but as regulations are removed, competition on a more micro level is booming. Although we see today somewhat institutional monopolies I wouldn't like to predict how long those will last and how long they will be stab
