Aloha! I'm a long time FDR follower and like many of you the material the have created has had a positive impact on my life. Many people are dependent on the system -- the prevailing institutions, many corrupted, many who's gains are overstated by downstream corruption. But the established system (a least a large portion) is bound for failure. A prime example: the US Federal Government is an enormous burden to those not dependent on it. The inevitable breakdown of these systems present opportunity. Government is largely an information system. I believe much of it can and could benefit from being modeled and operated by software. In some recent conversations with a variety of people, I believe a low cost on-line public notary system is one such opportunity. Do you have some spare time? I'd like to work with FDR members on projects to address these challenges and opportunities. If you agree, we can work on the notary. I don't think it would be difficult to build. If you want to work on another project, let's hear it! Properly managed, small contributions of a team of people add up. My name is Jason My specialty is Web development (LAMP (MySQL & PHP) stack) I can also write C, Java, Python, and BASH Some Computer Science at University Check out a related video: Cheers!

Critics of the Free Market bring up the point that sounds true, in theory. A staff member of a general store will not refer the client to another store which may have the described or better product in question, as doing so does not make a profit for the store, worst it makes competitor's store stronger. A brand store is a different story. But I have had encounters where time and time again staff members do it. I'm unsure if it is against store's policy. How often have any of you also encountered situations where shop staff refer to third party shops in cases of my preferred product not being available in their store? Sometimes they do say "I'll be nice" before referring to a another store that may have the product I prefer/describe. Implying that it is bad for business to do so. It seems the incentive to do so is that you would still go to adviser's store first in the future. Therefore having a loyal customer, which would lead to future profits, even with the contradiction of the action itself. But such a point is a claim that requires a research study.

Well I found this article on a Facebook page called Say no to Democrat and Republican Zombies. This article suggests Bitcoin is competition for the fed and it will end the fed. What does everyone here think? Ron Paul says it is the solution to end the fed. At first, Ron Paul was not for it. NOW he seems to be warming up to it as an alternative to the Fed - See more at: http://silverunderground.com/2013/10/ron-paul-on-stossel-bitcoin-offers-competition-against-the-fed/#sthash.NozDbcCy.dpuf
