Economic Advice and The Public
ECONOMIC ADVICE AND THE PUBLIC [E]conomics has been a cudgel for justifying a moral bias, not a science to which we must conform our moral intuitions. Libertarians are largely advocating free riding on the commons just as much as socialist advocate free riding upon the private sector. No economic proposition is decidable by either libertarian…

Unite The Right
SUPERNATURAL, MORAL, RATIONAL, SCIENTIFIC —“Unite the right by natural law. We don’t have to agree on where the law comes from, just on what it is.”—Martin Št?pán The result is the same, only the why differs.
Demarcation
[I] think the demarcation between truth(decidability) and choice (preference) is complete. Philosophy only tells us choice now, while law (reciprocity), science(consistency correspondence, and coherence), and mathematics(measurement) provide decidability regardless of choice. The top of the pyramid is not philosophy but testimony, law, science, mathematics, and the logic faculty in a consistent coherent ontology. While philosophy…

Anything other than RECIPROCITY isn’t internally consistent
VALUE JUDGEMENTS ARE OPINIONS by Alain Dwight September 21 at 8:34 PM [T]o a large extent terms like good and evil or ethical and unethical are opinions.
