One day, the fearsome Mongolian horde comes back. They burn, loot, and murder lots of people. The burning, looting, and murdering are mostly peaceful, at least, according to news, and as long as the victim doesn't fight back. Some of the victim start scorch earth policies as desperate measure...

Precisely. States & provinces voting right should be like shares in corporations. Now those college students can vote in local elections. Once they're out they can sell their voting right. Vote wrong, the valuation drop. Vote right, the valuation went up. Or they can choose not to vote and...

States and provinces in a country is like an open border apartment. Imagine one province vote capitalism and another province vote socialism? The capitalistic province will get rich. Then what? People in socialist province will move to capitalistic province. Then? Vote for socialism. Imagine...

This is not a possibility. It's actually done. About 7 years ago, Jokowi and Ahok became governor in Jakarta. We've heard about Jokowi being the best major in some small town called Solo. He later went on becoming the president of Indonesia. Some say his sidekick, Ahok, is even better than...

It's something that can be negotiated. Some local governments criminalize drugs. Some local governments legalize and tax drugs heavily. Another lets the market do it. I think the middle way is the way to go. But hei, everyone can just move to where they like.

I made a post and someone deleted that post. People are commenting. Suddenly it's just gone. The URL no longer work. Did I do something wrong? Thanks for the feedback. The post is asking about whether cops are racist in shooting black. So I question whether blacks are more likely to be shot...

Super Capitalism. You have 2 cows. You move them to a land where milk isn't taxed and sell it with currency central banks don't control. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCtr8I0g9Ng Soon, no government tax milk because all the cows move somewhere else if they do. Super Capitalism is like normal...

Also small governments are bad for defense. US government is strong because it's a big united government. Big united government is bad for economy. Ming dinasty prohibits foreign trade and the europeans colonize the world. Decentralized government with strong otonomy is the way to go. For...

Robotic tax is complex. What counts as robots? Vending machine in McDonald? If you want to see what good taxation is just look at how Malls collect rent. If malls collect rents through income taxes then the malls will be filled with tenants that simply shift profit somewhere else. We have...

Libertarians want small government. I agree. However, demanding smaller government through “reason” is not practical, not convincing, and in a sense, not fair. It’s like deciding who win a race through “argument”. No. You let them run you see who come first place. Instead, we should embrace...

Georgism is a good balance between socialism and capitalism.

This was written on 2016. Long before Trump won. The guy that wrote it is actually a socialist and I don't put links to the article because I am not sure it's appropiate. --- Indonesia, have chosen 2 businessmen as their leader. The president and the capital’s governor were businessmen. The...

No. The drug isn't expensive because of development whatever. The drug is expensive even though patents have expired, because your FDA, well bribed by pharmacies want to keep price high so they make more profit. The drugs from other countries work just as well as the approved drugs. They're...

Basically Drug prices in US are high A Free market could fix it. Countries beyond the US governments' reach can simply produce cheaper drugs Pharmacies lobby against it. Under the pretext that drugs must pass health approval/FDA whatever, people cannot import the drug. However, something is...
