  1. i think libertarian has minarchy and anarchy camps
  2. the mom is giving orders instead of explanations
  3. ok so some thoughts don't connect this this system to tipping, tipping is not universal, might as well call it a payment. the payment button can be a app that you create, and don't make it soviet union colors. give a option for write in amount have your own online store where people can make accounts now transactions of a penny likely wont be worth it, but make a assessment if it would work instead of google doing this, you doing this and selling the button is a better start, then google can pick up or buy if it wants. the companies are going to negotiate cuts rather than randomly take 10% cuts take another look into youtube systems of payment and advertising and profits youtube does have people making living from youtube its better to get people on websites than a major corporation what is the demand for this already? i think you would have to set up free processing, because other companies don't want to free proccess

    you could do the train track test see if you wake up after being hit by a train
  5. you asked this i told you what the difference was if he makes the choice to study economics, he did choose to study economics he did not decide where to be born, his parents did he did not decide to have his parents, his parents decided to have a baby and it happened to be him he did decide how much weight to put on each influence what if he were born if africa, then he would have different influencers. noone has to choose between two schools, there are many more choices than those 2 choices. what if he was born in africa, then flown to america, he certainly could be making a choice that includes the two schools i would not say it was his decision as a baby to be taken from africa to america, it was the decision of whoever took him from africa to america.
  6. im not sure if he is accounting for context. he talks about © timed (so speed matters more than thoughtfulness) and (d) administered on a one-shot, high-anxiety basis. as being bad for exams, but what about jobs that need speed, and are one shot only, such as a lifeguard or emergency service provider? if someone has 1 minute to get a job done, letting something take 10 minutes for thoughtfulness seems like it's missing the fact the person would be dead by then. that's a different situation than say "write a poem in 10 minutes", which seems to have no point to the time limit at all, or even a test at that. but still with poems the test is if others buy the poems, or if others are interested in reading the poems, or if the writer reached the writers own intrinsic goal in writing the poem. http://www.alfiekohn.org/teaching/tcooa.htm im looking through the articles, would be interested in finding one about do or die and other high pressure situations. a chemistry lab situation, not following protocal can be a health hazard, letting something sit 10 minutes while trying to be creative can blow up in someones face. it looks like many of these articles apply to children more than workforce or collage education. in collage for instance a culunary program will have students run a resturant on campus, getting customers or not is a "examination". at that point people in the program are likely being filtered by their own intrinsic motivations?
  7. our economy is based on eating people need to work to eat. people will need to eat, as long as human systems need food
  8. one idea i had for a tshirt was a libertree each branch has a quote on it and the root of the tree has fundamental principles
  9. people don't decide every factor in their life. only some of life is decided. "come to a resolution in the mind as a result of consideration" this is a definition of decide "the capacity to have an effect on the character, development, or behavior of someone or something, or the effect itself." this is a definition of influence the meanings are very different decide is a resolution in the mind influence is a effect on the mind, but not a resolution in the mind influence is a proccess decide is a end result
  10. i think it depends on what the person is lobbying for.
  11. all the food producers in the world, so from the biggest of corporations to the smallest of hunter gatherer, to the guy with a Lettuce garden attached to the window of his apartment, all colluded... first it won't happen second, it wont happen if it does happen, others can form their own food growing, and food growers could opt out of this weird agreement.
  12. i think a man would judge more by looks in general a woman more by status in general case specific, how many young men are seen with 80 year old women of status, vs how many young women are seen with 80 year old men with status?
  13. what are some ways of forming questions that interest you most in responding to the question? what wordings turn you off, don't really interest you, or lead to a short answer? what wordings make you more curios, leading to a more in depth answer?
  14. if someone thinks family is most important in one moment, the person can decide that something else is more important than family the next moment. if you recognize that past events are influencers, then future events are decided past events do not decide future events, but past events do influence future events
  15. "It is a main source for racist, sexist, homophobic, and anti-Semitic strains within the libertarian world—at once denying that this sentence is true while asserting with equal passion the rights of individuals to hold and act on such views. After all, say the brutalists, what is human liberty without the right to behave in ways that put our most precious sensibilities, and even civilization itself, to the test?" so a person against racism, that says the state should not be on some quest to abolish racism, is a brutalist? i'm not sure what he means about acting on racist views, but if the action is still within individual liberty, what is the problem? who should force a person to not act in a racist way? i would say racism is at odds with libertarianism, but it's not a system that tries initiates force to stamp out racism.
  16. ill look up alfie kohn, which articles do you most recommend it looked like he had a pay system that was just act like there is a abundance of money, hire lots of teachers at high salaries and then have the teachers forget about money?
  17. so with these catagories... Ayn rand would be a humanitarian, yet the left always labels her as brutalist? so she would be fit neither box, or one box?
  18. a different state popping up is one thing, but to say it would be facist?
  19. well a oppinion can't be influenced from the future, nor is everything a blank slate to be completly redone by the present. so what someone can say "the thoughts you have today will influence who you become tomorrow"
  20. the past can influence a person but i mean this as free will and not determinism. people can prioritize which influences are most important.
  21. past events don't "want" us to do anything. i consider the past a influence, not a decider. someone who has never heard of a musical instrument is not going to one day want to because a professional performer in that instrument the person has never heard of before but hearing of a instrument is not going to decide for a person that the person will become a professional performer in that instrument. our history can inform us of more options to choose from, but the history itself does not choose options for us is training to win a competition a choice or automatic? each person has things that a person will naturally be better at than others, and those aren't choices, such as hand size and throwing a football. but each person has a area where the person can be great at what they do should they learn about it and choose to train. if someone wants to reach a goal planned in advance, i think reaching the goal is a choice, and it's not automatic that the person will reach or fail the goal.
  22. we do decide
  23. dead poets society look like a good example of counterwill
  24. his girlfriend at time of death was with him for 7 years
  25. so without a state, we will have a state. we will have a state that is a 20th century concept, if we do not have a state the founders of the usa constitution were religous no president of the usa has not had a religion maybe less than a handful of atheists ever elected to federal government, and those handful are just recent the usa public education system is filled with people with a religion. do you have statistics showing a public education system that only has atheists?
