while cheeky, the above response is dead on. UPB is not any type of argument, it is a framework for establishing the validity of potential ethical theories. 1. Ethics is not a science. The only interests are those of individuals, in particular those of yourself. 2. Economics is a science. 3. According to your understanding of your interests and your understanding of economics, you can support certain norms and institutions. 4. As such, allowing homesteading of something scarce by another person makes sense if you take the increased productivity through the division of labor into account.

My latest article: http://www.vforvoluntary.com/articles/mises-versus-rothbard-on-free-will.html "In the causal worldview, such as the one Mises advocated, choice is incorporated. Choice is considered a causal process. The outcome of that choice is not considered determined by a script outside of reality that is dictating what shall happen; instead, what happens is considered to be determined through the interaction of all that is part of reality."

The Theory Of Money In The Tradition Of Carl Menger

The theory of money in the tradition of Carl Menger. Part II http://www.vforvoluntary.com/articles/the-theory-of-money-in-the-tradition-of-carl-menger-part-ii.html "In this part I will critique Rothbard’s theory of money (Rothbard is a follower of Ludwig von Mises on money, as far as I know), then I will apply Menger’s theory to fiat money, and lastly I will comment on the Bitcoin phenomenon based on what I have written up to that point." -

Is FDR really about philosophy and it's discussion?

If determinism is true, you're not willing to pursue it, because it may involve adapting how you understand wisdom, integrity and virtue? Because you're not willing to adapt your understanding of wisdom, integrity and virtue, you won't consider determinism as possible? -

The Theory Of Money In The Tradition Of Carl Menger
Nielsio2 replied to Nielsio2's topic in Listener Projects
The longterm influences individuals in their choices in accepting something in indirect exchange. My point was that over the long-longterm, the demand was slowly increasing, which means that over the medium term demand was at minimum rather stable. Ofcourse, there could be periods and places where this was not the case. If in your region most people are turning to the monastic life, and trade with others slows down considerably, this has effects on indirect exchange as well. There are market forces that counter overconsumption (through higher prices). See: Even if precious metals were only used by the rich and by religious institutions, as long as the demand is stable enough, that would work. But once you know what to look for, you'll find more.

Thank you. For something to be used in indirect exchange it doesn't necessarily need a high demand. All the other factors that go into making something attractive for indirect exchange can mitigate a possible low demand (quantity and frequency) of use in production. As long as there is a somewhat stable demand for it, and a somewhat developed exchange market for people who want to use it in production. That's the thing about (precious) metals: when they arrived they had unique characteristics unmatched by any other material. And over time, more and more uses developed for it. So I would estimate that over time the demand was stable and increasing. Note that ( ) it was silver that has been used as money more than gold. And before silver it was something else. Market conditions change. 1. What do you base this on? 2. Gold can be stored for an extremely long time compared to other goods, while retaining its use case. If 1% of it is used every year, and 1% is mined every year, that doesn't pose a problem for its use in indirect exchange. And remember: the good only has to outperform the other good that producers want to sell for indirect exchange. It does not have to have a 'perfect' value (an ideal that really has no basis in subjective markets). Form can indeed raise subjectively perceived value. The raw material cost of my computer is minuscule compared to the market price it can attain on the market. -
I've written an article explaining the mechanics of money in the tradition of Carl Menger, the founder of the Austrian School of economics. I cover what money is, as well as: the causal connection between goods, the marketability of commodities, the periodic table of the elements, and speculation. http://nielsio.tumblr.com/post/41447049086/the-theory-of-money-in-the-tradition-of-carl-menger I have left issues such as fiat currency and the regression theory for Part 2.
