David Friedman: "The administration followed [the Keynesian] prescription, things didn't get better, so obviously the deficit was not big enough..."

Thanks for flagging yourself for me.

Please get yourself to a therapist, before you end up hurting yourself or someone else. Libertarianism only ends up in tears.

smacfarl

Hardly.

Please stop posting stuff from Friedman.

You guys in the austrian school are not helping.

I am not advocating for ethanol. I am only using it as an example where "the market" picked an inferior technology because a few hands could maintain control of it...

It's better to know just how negative someone is. Totals make sense.

We need to move to electric- or hydrogen-based cars.

Yep.

That's not the dimension over which the comparison was established.

It's about central control of the resource.

Cars were originally to be driven via ethanol until the "market" decided on the wisdom of centrally distributed gas.

They're copying us. They realized when the world is really ending people get involved. They need to pretend the same thing to even get marginal levels of involvement on their side.

smacfarl

much better thx. Forgot the time index.

Thorium is worth (USD)0.25/gram. There's tons of it. The current reactor market is not profitable based on the energy resell, the money all comes from pre-preprocessing Uranium.

It's the ethanol vs petroleum, or Tesla vs Edison dilemma.

Really? We have a trillion dollar float out the fed's over night window for the sake of a banking community that isn't lending and you are worried about the piddling sums that go to public education?

Really?

What? He's a windows guy. You install Mint, it just works and it has something that looks like a start menu. You gotta start somewhere.

Outline your recommendation with links. And also supply some links to haterade. I haven't been monitoring some of the comments too closely.

It's probably better if we just collectively assemble our own list of likes/recommendations to people that want to learn more.

smacfarl

Mint, it's easy and looks like windows.

It's just a tutorial. You get all the stuff like Debian and GNU Social form Debian and GNU Social.

Lazy money. Glad they walked away from the larger opportunity.
