Anyone not wishing the Seasteading Institute success?
btw, DVaut1's posts are full of fail. There isn't one point there that's worth addressing.
1. Wars in the Middle East over keeping the US Dollar the currency of choice and oil suck.
2. Central banking sucks. Fractional reserve banking is embezzlement. Rothbard was right T-shirt.
3. Corporate bailouts, and banking bailouts are unforgivable.
4. Income taxes suck...
5. Majority of governments contemporary, and historically are insta-terrible. Also, more private property rights have historically lead to greater prosperity, and it's like this everywhere. South Korea, or North Korea? I mean the benefits of liberty are pretty lol-obvious.
6. The calculation debate.
List goes on-and-on...
Where I am heading with this is that the only conclusion you reach is that your rulers suck, and you're in this survival of the fittest where those that are able to manipulate people's emotions rise to the top of government's can rather than merit, which was a lot of what Ayn Rand wrote about. And the emotionalists like DVaut1 and microbet for instance are just really lazy in their thinking. Worldwide governments have historically a lot of entries in the failblog. Latest entry is going to be Trump's new wall proposal, which is like "omg voters are genius", and flattery just goes up to the top, because statism is a cult. So everyone blows smoke up Trump's ass until he's president, and now they have no way to build this utopic wall they propose, because statism is a total fantasy cult.
