polymathy posted:Wall Street has been profiting off of financial bubbles engineered by the Fed, coupled with bailouts when they get into trouble, for decades. The financialization of the economy has caused it to become more distorted and abstract. Instead of a sound economy where entrepreneurs have to figure out better ways to produce goods and services that consumers actually want to buy, we have a system that rewards corporate leeches and parasites who produce little or nothing.

The weird part is that there's no reason to specifically keep talking about the secession of the american south prior to the civil war. Jrod's ultimate point is that he and other libertarians should be able to take their balls and go home to Galt's Gulch except in Texas. But he absolutely cannot resist saying "oh and also the South should have been allowed to make a slave-holding nation. Stopping them was immoral."

polymathy posted:Yeah, honestly I'm not going to spent 3 hours watching a YouTube video about The Bell Curve. Why is IQ so important to you? Why does being able to (and I cannot put enough quotes around this) "quantify" intelligence so integral to your arguments?

Jrod I scored higher than you on SATs and I'm the stupidest person ITT besides yourself. You are in no way above-average intelligence.

Jrod if you don't assign any valuation of worth to IQ then why is it so important to you that you be acknowledged as being above average?

Panfilo posted:How do Libertarians even define ownership in terms of things like land? Fences. That's it. If it has a fence then someone owns it. If it doesn't then you can build your own fence and then it's yours.

Cakebaker posted:Within the libertarian framework, couldn't you just argue that a government is an entity which has laid claim to a specific area of land and has set up certain rules that you must follow for being on that land. What is the typical response to that? No because Libertarians don't recognize any form of collective ownership. One person has to make all the decisions or it doesn't count.

A king is fine, but a president with a cabinet makes it filthy statist oppression.

Does anyone have that post in the Erpisa threads of the people scrambling to be the first to see the giant Mecha fights? This is the most relevant thread I could imagine to ask.
