Pozabite na žrtvovanje za večje dobro, samoodgovornost je pot do boljše družbe
Sacrificing individuals is and always will be an immoral choice. If you want a better society, responsibility is probably a good place to start.
To je uvodnik mnenj Mickeyja Kossa, diplomanta ekonomije iz West Pointa. Štiri leta je preživel v pehoti, preden je prestopil v finančni korpus.
Subjektivne vrednote niso način za uveljavljanje objektivnih ukrepov in odpiranje družbe litanijam dejanj proti svobodi in posamezniku v imenu večjega dobrega.
The main issue is that the individuals who don’t value bitcoin have determined that their lack of subjective value justifies the censorship of energy use, among other things, in the name of societal good. I don’t think they realize the precedent that sets.
It's not hot enough out, so we’re killing power to your air conditioning. Watching “The Kardashians” is a waste of power, so we’re going to reduce the amount of power coming into your house. It's not cold enough yet, so we’re cutting off gas to your furnace. Your car is too big for you to drive alone, so we’re going to limit your ability to purchase fuel. Bitcoin is a waste of energy, so we need to ban mining or change the code.Vsaka izjava je v bistvu enaka. Nekdo drug uveljavlja svoje subjektivne vrednote. Čeprav se zdijo primeri na prvi pogled neumni, si nikoli nisem mislil, da bo kmet moral protestirati, da bi nadaljeval kmetovanje, dokler začelo se je dogajati na Nizozemskem.
Takšne stvari so vedno upravičene za splošno dobro družbe.
»Potrebno je torej, da posameznik končno spozna, da njegov lastni ego v primerjavi z obstojem naroda nima pomena, da je položaj posameznika pogojen izključno z interesi naroda kot celote.« — Adolf Hitler
Ni skupin. Skupinskih učinkov ni. Obstajajo samo posamezniki. Čeprav skupaj oblikujemo družbo, na družbo ne moremo vplivati, ampak samo na posameznike.
Keynesianske vrednote so razkrite
Nikoli ne bom pozabil brezčutne matematike, s katero sem utemeljeval povišanje minimalne plače v razredu makroekonomije na višji šoli. Glede na ocenjene krivulje ponudbe in povpraševanja naj bi izračunali rast brezposelnosti v primerjavi z rastjo plač tistih, ki ostanejo zaposleni po dvigu minimalne plače.
Da bi dobili petico, je moral vaš sklep potrditi odločitev o dvigu minimalne plače. Način, kako so bile zapisane enačbe, je narekoval rezultat že od začetka: povečanje plač bi vedno odtehtalo izgube zaradi brezposelnosti.
Če uporabimo scenarij v resničnem življenju, si ni težko predstavljati, da to velja za vse politične odločitve. Ocenjevanje enačb za nekaj matematike za več ocen. Dobili smo točno takšen rezultat, kot smo ga želeli, in naša matematika to podpira. Znanost, srček.
Kaj pa posameznik?
Vso matematiko sem naredil pravilno, vendar sem po mojem priporočilu izgubil točke:
»Odsvetujem zvišanje minimalne plače, ker to vodi v povečanje brezposelnosti. Siljenje ljudi z dela je nemoralno.«
Profesor, ki je napisal svojo disertacijo o elastičnosti povpraševanja po osnovnih dobrinah v podsaharski Afriki – ocenjeno z ocenami z malo realne svetovne vrednosti – je mimogrede odvrnil pomisleke z uporabo zavarovanja za primer brezposelnosti kot utemeljitve. In to je bilo takrat na šoli za javno politiko številka 1 v Združenih državah Amerike.
»Jebeš plebs. Naj postanejo odvisni od vlade.”
Vsako dejanje nad posameznikom je mogoče opravičiti z večjim dobrom družbe. Ni omejitvenih principov in ta klanec je strm in spolzek.
Dober Riddance Keynes
I think the intellectual class’ resistance to bitcoin is because, at least subconsciously, they know it takes away their power to try and fine tune society from their ivory towers.
Tisoč ljudi, ki izgubijo službo, je v redu, dokler ostajajo brezlični statistični podatki v psevdoznanstvenih matematičnih enačbah.
What about the single mother, the single father, the family of five, the first generation American, struggling every day to live a meaningful and dignified life, to show their children what it means to earn and provide? When making those calculations I could not help but think of the broken faces of broken people, shuffling home to tell their families they had failed that day, that their teetering scale of existence in this broken fiat world had just tipped out of favor, that their future was now uncertain.
Če moram lagati samemu sebi, da dobim petico pri diplomi iz ekonomije, potem mi je dovolj, da povem resnico.
Bitcoin And The Marionette
I could listen to bitcoin-slavno dr. Jordan Peterson for hours. If I’m being honest, I already have and will continue to do so. His gift of language is highlighted beautifully in his analysis of the children's story “Ostržek«.
Pinocchio's journey leads him to accepting responsibility as he enters the belly of the beast to save his father. Self-actualization leads to personhood. Everyday responsibility is the act of the everyday hero. Without responsibility, we have nothing. And yet with no scarcity, there can never be responsibility at the macro and policy levels of society.
Potovanje v bitcoin standard leads to radical self-responsibility and cuts the ties of control from the so-called experts who so desperately want to control you. No longer will we be marionettes, puppets dancing along through life at the end of a fiat string.
No longer will we be statistics and aggregates, parts of overly and purposely convoluted equations used to justify sacrifice on behalf of the common good. It will no longer be possible on the bitcoin standard. With scarcity reintroduced into the marketplace, blanket dictats will no longer be financially viable.
There is no society without the individual. There are no societal effects. Only individuals making decisions on the margins. Sacrificing individuals is and always will be immoral. If you want a better society, responsibility is probably a good place to start. Bitcoin to odpravi.
