The Public Utility
Deconsolidation does not mean we will no longer have free markets. It means we will in a flash, which is exactly what capitalists don’t want! Risk that aggregates unchecked (like flash crashes that supposedly provide the benefit of liquidity at … Continue reading
Public Safety
The Utilitarian Model Elite models are supposedly concerned with public safety in priority. Exacting detriment from the top down is an act of selflessness (sacrificing private life for public service) not selfishness. The People need to be protected from themselves. … Continue reading

The Protection Payment
No one wants to be bonded to probable risk. To hedge the risk (to exist uncoerced, without imperative) we enterprise to be free with the least possible payment. The less rent we pay the more free we probably are, and … Continue reading

Risk in the Aggregate Dimension
The Public’s Interest When we pay interest (rent) on the public debt, what are “We” renting? What’s the compelling (subordinating) interest? If my rights are endowed by the Creator, why do I have to rent it from somebody else? Why … Continue reading

Resistance at the Margin
Is it time to stop renting the right to consume what is produced and own it outright? Isn’t it time to claim our identity by objective and lose the psychopathy of a marginally “objective identity.” Expansion of the middle class … Continue reading
The Marginal Identity
According to conservative philosophy, net worth is not a measure of value in the god-like realm of aggregates, where even the angels of our better nature fear to tread, not knowing if Fate is on our side. Aggregate descriptors like … Continue reading
Oligarchs and Ochlocrats
