It was sincere. The scientific method is based on not trusting a scientist. Record your result, explain the experiment so others can repeat it. Why? Because you shouldn’t trust what someone says. The scientific process is the collective work of all those experiments and results. Trust the collective body of work produced by people. Not what someone says because they are a scientist.
Scientists were given the ring of power in political culture because it seemed the natural move and they would be the most cautious with its corrupting nature. Sadly much of science now is not real science and people are trusting them as once did priests.
Right. The whole purpose of science is for others to repeat the experiment and verify it’s result. Never trust a scientist! “Scientists” these days are really more modern day priests.
Maybe, I’m not am expert on this computer topic. I just wanted to highlight the libertarian opinion on regulations.
The main goal of libertarians is to get prices to work. The alternative that i fear we are heading towards is price controls then mandated requirements for output. E.g produce 100 loafs of bread today that will sell for $1.00 or off to jail you go.
Libertarians acknowledge the need for regulations. The importance is that they are stable and apply to everyone equally. Labels for food that list ingredients is great because it has been fair and stable as an example.
In an inflationary economy the quality of goods decline because consumer are more sensitive to price increases than a lower quality product. The food we eat is less nutritional than before. Health will continue to decline.
If we jail people with money at all, that could work too. Any money should be instantly traded for a good or service, putting someone to work etc. Suppose I get a paycheck for 1000, that money should go straight to the things i need or to someone else that needs it. That would be the perfect economy. Anyone with money should be JAILED. Spend it or lose it!
Calling it a feminist issue marginalizes the men who are uncomfortable. There are a lot of gentlemen who want to treat women with respect and who value women in the work place.
A good start would be to end the need for medical licensing. It creates an artificially low supply of doctors thus increased costs. Before medical licensing there were more breakthroughs and competition.
