  • For laypersons: they put all the coins in a box and shake the box.

  • Honestly I think pretty much anyone could build a better financial system, and more people should try. What we have now is the result of centuries of unchecked power. This monetary policy was created by Richard Nixon and then we adopted a Keynesian rationale post facto. It didn't evolve, it was stolen.

    If you've got another idea (including moneyless systems) I'm down to try that too, but what we've got right now is pure garbage, and having no out before the modern era doesn't imply that it's good.

  • Hey we obey the law here sir

  • I'm estimating their capability as equal to one Iranian each.

  • IMHO it doesn't get any weaker and lower than exterminating indigenous people or owning slaves.

  • If it's like Iran, it looks like he'd try to fight this weaker force, lose anyways, and then push the cost on all Americans, which would just grow the insurgency. His incompetence extends to military strategy.

  • Why is this advice upvoted?

    Confidence

  • This isn't a reform vs eugenics thing. Eugenics is, on its own, a stupid idea. Especially so for a very common trait frequently found in surgeons.

  • eugenics won't prevent billionaires

  • "A secret society of billionaires is basically the same thing as being forced to accept black people."

  • Autoclave or GTFO, eugenics won't prevent billionaires

  • Grand Parent (zabadoh)

  • It's incredible that GP has never heard of these devices!

  • To be fair, their main competition is Microsoft.

  • Ugh can you just stop it already. They're mostly right.

  • Corporations shouldn't be allowed to buy each other

    Abolish the corporate veil. People are accountable for their own actions, corporations are not real. They can buy liability insurance. And if that insurance is too expensive, then the market has spoken and you shouldn't do it.

    Treat it just like anyone paying someone else to do something.

  • I don't even do that and get no delays (Linux Mint, Firefox, ublock)

  • If adblock didn't work perfectly on YouTube, then I'd just entertain myself elsewhere.

  • The message is clear: society wants you to insider trade. Just go to a non-extradition country before you leak it.
