Our founding fathers, along with the first leftists who were of the same political faith, were well aware that individual freedom and personal responsibility for one's own welfare are equal and inseparable parts of the same truth.

 

All of them?

Does that author realize the irony of that statement?

That development seems to have risen from this little-understood and dangerously deceptive arrangement: two groups of persons with entirely different motives may sometimes find themselves allied in what appears to be a common cause.

Same author quoting a sentence that applies well to the supposed "Federalists" fighting the supposed "Anti-Federalists" during the usurpation of Liberty by The Constitution supporters (The Nationalists who provided the false and misleading labels).

 The Web may be the best example of this spontaneous order in human history.

 

I had asked the question on the power of the network (path of least resistance) to the Austrians (so called economists) back in 1996.

I agree with that answer.

 

http://www.austrianforum.com/index.php?showtopic=163

That link records thoughts on "the path of least resistance" effect, where routers find ways around blockades.

Together, they wrecked much of the world economy because of their shared "fatal conceit" (F.A. Hayek’s term) that government central planners were superior to private property and free markets.

 

Anyone,
 

Why are these messages written in code? Why must there be such a huge gap between the words and the meaning behind the words? If the idea is to accurately identify specific people who plan on and follow through with the plan to injure innocent people; then why not call that what it is – in fact?
 

What is the idea where the idea is to accurately identify specific criminals?
 

A.      Defensive government

B.      Accurate perception employed in defence against victimization

C.      A recruitment tool

 

Once the idea bears fruit, where the accurate perception tool is employed toward identifying legal criminals, where the people who are guilty of pre-meditated destruction of innocent life are known, then does the idea become a form of “The British are Coming” where Paul Revere spreads the word? 

If the idea is to accurately know who intends to injure innocent people, for profit, or just for fun, and that same idea is then moved into an advertisement phase, where the idea becomes a warning of some sort, let all the innocent people beware, then why does the warning have to be couched in these mysterious terms? 

Here is the quote again:


Together, they wrecked much of the world economy because of their shared "fatal conceit" (F.A. Hayek’s term) that government central planners were superior to private property and free markets. 



“Government Central Planners”, “Property” and “Free Markets”. 

The bad guys appear to be those evil government central planners.  

Now, please, what is the idea where the idea is to accurately identify specific criminals?  

Who are the bad guys? Who has the idea where the idea is to accurately identify specific criminals?  

Here is a guy, this Tom guy, and he has this idea where the idea is to accurately identify “Government Central Planners” – is this true? 

What is Tom doing? He, if I may answer my own question, is planning on doing something. He must have planned on writing those words – no? Is Tom centrally located? Is Tom a Central Planner? Why has Tom governed his word choices so as to misidentify the legal criminals as being “Government Central Planners”? 

Why blame “government” for actions of human beings? What is the plan behind this governing of words so as to mislead, misidentify, disguise, deceive, miss-communicate, and falsely propagate falsehood? 

I have to say, to any reader, that I have a whole lot in common with this Tom guy, more than I have in common with most everyone else, however, please, see the diversions.

Why is “property” being communicated in such a way as to suggest that “private property” represents “the good guys”? 

Why do people plan on and then execute their plans to suggest that “property” is good, bad, or even indifferent? What is the reasoning for introducing this idea of “property” as if “property” were capable of thought and or action?  

Example: 

Suppose a robot was constructed where the robot has a program built into the robot and the robot will torture and mass murder millions of people if some person turns the robot on. 

Please think about that above example as an illustration of why I think Tom is spreading a whole lot of false propaganda, as Tom becomes a “Government Central Planner” in that effort to spread that specific false propaganda concerning this supposed “private property” stuff.

 

P.S. I wrote an e-mail to Tom (a plan of mine to warn Tom about the things I publish in reference to what Tom publishes)

Rothbard ignores the work of Josiah Warren and Stephen Pearl Andrews, and Rothbard misrepresents the work of Benjamin Tucker.

Spooner's "A New System of Paper Currency" is also misrepresented, indirectly by Rothbard.

The things ignored by Rothbard just happen to be the things that compete with his Interest/Profit/Wage Paying System. Why does Rothbard ignore the competition? Why does Rothbard misrepresent the competition, does Rothbard intend to destroy competition? Is competition in Rothbard's way, impeding the power accumulation intended with his Interest/Profit/Wage Paying System of wealth accumulation?

“[A]ny written limits that leave it to government to interpret its own powers are bound to be interpreted as sanctions for expanding and not binding those powers. In a profound sense, the idea of binding down power with the chains of a written constitution has proved to be a noble experiment that failed.”

 

Ahhh...the failed noble experiment hypothesis - false.

The architects of U.S.A. inc (Limited) included people like Robert Morris and Alexander Hamilton, two “Nationalists” (Legal criminals) hiding behind a false front called: “Federalists”, and their goal has been achieved – in spades – where the idea was, and is, to transfer POWER from those who earn it to those who produce and maintain the “monopoly” and their tool is legal tender; a money monopoly.

No other time in human history comes close to the present. Certainly, if these risks are not understood by those who make decisions in the heights of the immense power that science and technology have placed in their hands, the next world war will be the last one, and it would take, perhaps, tens of millions of years before new intelligent beings would attempt to write their history.
 

The Global Warming scenario on steroids, and a rapidly accelerating rate of acceleration for the winner in the race to DOOM DAY.

Dr Buiter’s team adds the usual caveats: “beware of compound growth rate delusions;” or “the bigger the booms, the more spectacular the bubbles, and the devastating the busts;” or indeed that “convergence is neither automatic, nor inevitable. In history, it has been more the exception than the rule.”


Anyone,
What is meant by "convergence" as in: "convergence is neither automatic, nor inevitable."?
Please, don't be shy.
