Thank you.

Also:

The market has failed? Why, the market has never been tried!

is simply true. Individuals have incentives to create externalities that the government needs to ensure are paid for. For an example of a market failure, look at the time the algae thought they could get away with producing as much oxygen as they liked because the ocean would just absorb it all. Individuals also have incentives to take risks that would create externalities, and the government needs to create liabilities for them so they can be monitored by insurance companies.

This is just basic facts.

The real question is, why does the xenosystems guy think it’s fun to deny that markets fail when he actually cares about rejecting socialism?

there is an interesting extension here for those of the master-of-the-universe bent among us, the character of manipulation then also becomes the preselection of that which also merits failure and destruction. for those virtuous nobles who can more clearly perceive the essence of beings motions as they reach their ends, why not preempt the inevitable result and skip the messy parts of the process? i dare say theres nothing that gets prog panties bunched quicker than thoughts like these (‘literally hitler’), im sure many here would also balk at least a little.

such a perspective in fact is at the heart of gentlemans agreements: ‘we both know how this is going to end now, so the one shall concede to avoid irreparable damage’. such things are what civilization is made of, and constitute the chief difference between sacral warfare in its various guises, and its more degenerate modern forms (it is only natural for a simple ideology to render all forms of war down to total war).

self-contained processes, games, that serve as proxy for gods will. but a proxy is not being of course, and so not just anyone can interpret the results, or perceive its purpose, or succeed in its spirit. the nominalist sees the spirit not, games the system when it can, petulantly flips the table then it cant.

Nor does governance unless we define it strictly as predation growing into slow but accelerating rapidly genocide through indirect means, only because they’re cowards who can’t lead or trust their Force.

Their Force coming from the target population of Americans anyway.

Here is American Regulation in Telecommunications – and not Finance. Now all American governance since the early 90s has always been a farce, a Kabuki so as to exert pressure to extort or seize more. Including precious GOP, esp John McCain. John McCain has had his hands up Telecommunications Asses since the 80s. He’s the spear/water carrier and beneficiary for the Baby Bells, esp Ameritech. Which by the way then merges into Southern Bell/SBC, which then buys AT&T and it’s name.

Basically everything but Verizon nee Worldcom nee MCI/Worldcom [a very corrupt merger] nee MCI nee nemesis of Ma Bell aka AT&T.

That’s just my Trade. Civilian Trade.

It’s a uniform phenomenon.
================================

Except for Uniformed Force. Because Progs are cowards and shirkers. With Force they adopt same policies they adopted for police – lawyers, DOJ, reporters, witch-hunts etc. Because they’re cowards. It never really took on us, although it claimed some unwary scalps. We actually adapted, just not publicly. No we can’t turn Afghans into SWPLs. But we don’t lose battles, nor wars defined in terms of Force. Just impossible political, social, and yes religious objectives of turning reactionary Muslim Tribesmen into modern [secular] Protestants.

And it just stopped working on the NYPD as well [a miracle in Blue].

[And perhaps you should answer certain Rhetorical questions I posed over on Twitter on very subject of Force…Dear Sir…]

“Of course, the idea that dysfunctional political institutions will cooperate with their own public humiliation is also a piece of lunacy (and this time, one that beltway libertarians are peculiarly prone to).”

Bingo.

And in truth both of them would be far better governance than what we have.

The Mafia/Mob/Organized Crime is better than Chaos looting as fast as it dares [for it is cowardly chaos].

Organized Crime has discipline, business orientation and long term outlook.

[sweeties I didn’t learn that from the Internet].

They also – yes they, organized crime – have VALUES. Because without VALUES you don’t last. Hell many of them are church/mosque/Temple going folk. YES, YES THEM TOO.
