2017-08-25 22:11:04 UTC

I'm doing Chemistry with a foundation year cause I'm shit

2017-08-25 22:11:27 UTC

Foundation year?

2017-08-25 22:11:33 UTC

Sorry I'm from the states

2017-08-25 22:11:44 UTC

An extra year at the begining where you learn basic shit

2017-08-25 22:11:50 UTC

For special kids like me

2017-08-25 22:12:17 UTC

Ah. Youre fine. I had to take an extra non credit math class my first year of uni

2017-08-25 22:12:21 UTC

Well, if's still hardee than a PhD in gender studies

2017-08-25 22:12:46 UTC

What did you study?

2017-08-25 22:12:58 UTC

Biology

2017-08-25 22:13:02 UTC

not bad

2017-08-25 22:13:15 UTC

My mum did that

2017-08-25 22:13:26 UTC

But I didn't want to go back to grad school so now I work at a lab not making much.

2017-08-25 22:13:35 UTC

she failed first time but tried it again with the OU

2017-08-25 22:14:12 UTC

Oh cool. Yeah, perseverance pays off. Good for your mom.

2017-08-25 22:14:42 UTC

Here it goes fail, pass, 3rd, 2:2, 2:1, 1st. She got a 3rd

2017-08-25 22:15:14 UTC

considering she did it part time while working and caring for me and my sister

2017-08-25 22:15:33 UTC

Ah and yeah that must have been tough

2017-08-25 22:34:19 UTC

You meet the most attractive woman in school. Her hair is long and blonde, her face is beautiful, even without makeup. She's kind, nice, helpful, but she pays attention to you. She's never demanding, never rude, and cares about you the most. She means everything she says and never lies. One day, you two go on
The roof. She admits for you, you accept and kiss. She then grabs you and says "I'm not like other girls." And takes down her skirt. She smiles as a long, long thing appears. "Now... Make love to me." From here, your destiny is unknown.

2017-08-25 22:35:10 UTC

Don't remind me about my ex

Edgy

2017-08-25 22:50:16 UTC

How come Venezuela didn't turned into Scandinavian country, they literally had oil and same political system as them

Someone redpill me eeeaaa

2017-08-25 22:50:53 UTC
2017-08-25 22:51:16 UTC

they're nothing like scandinavia

2017-08-25 22:55:00 UTC

Scandinavia is dominated by social-democracy, Venezuela was social-democracy at the barrel of a gun

2017-08-25 22:55:55 UTC

The reason why some countries do well and others don't https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_of_Economic_Freedom

2017-08-25 22:56:28 UTC

Venezuela has no reason to be as shit as they are now

2017-08-25 22:56:36 UTC

Well they have one: socialism

2017-08-25 22:57:03 UTC

And no scandinavia is not socialism, only a dumbass like bernie thinks that

2017-08-25 23:00:29 UTC

Venezuela has exact same economic system as Scandinavia, the social-democracy

2017-08-25 23:00:34 UTC

And they had oil too

2017-08-25 23:00:43 UTC

Chavez and Maduro managed to fuck up so much lul

2017-08-25 23:00:56 UTC

Yeah Bernie loves the nordic model

2017-08-25 23:01:03 UTC

Lets make US&A another Venezuela

2017-08-25 23:01:43 UTC

They're literally not

2017-08-25 23:01:54 UTC

The freedom index calculated their policies

2017-08-25 23:02:01 UTC

decided it was vastly less free

2017-08-25 23:02:07 UTC

*The creators of the index took an approach similar to Adam Smith's in The Wealth of Nations,* Should be called the exploitation index.

2017-08-25 23:02:25 UTC

>free market nations have the biggest free market
No surprises here.

2017-08-25 23:02:27 UTC

Ah yes those exploited people in switzerland

2017-08-25 23:02:50 UTC

Those poor New Zeeland slaves

2017-08-25 23:03:01 UTC

They're also the best

2017-08-25 23:03:47 UTC

Wealth is accumulated. It is a zero sum game. It has to come from somewhere. It's cute.

2017-08-25 23:04:03 UTC

And everyone profits when a country is rich

2017-08-25 23:04:14 UTC

>everyone profits

2017-08-25 23:04:17 UTC

The rest is equally poor, but not exploited right

2017-08-25 23:04:24 UTC

god thank for that

2017-08-25 23:04:52 UTC

You one of these people that think rich people hoard money?

2017-08-25 23:05:17 UTC

You have to extract wealth from somewhere. In a free market there are winners and losers. This is really basic. It is zero sum. If not intranational, than imperialistically.

2017-08-25 23:05:57 UTC

Really basic yet never the case in real life

2017-08-25 23:06:09 UTC

When you have rich people they invest

2017-08-25 23:06:19 UTC

drive them away and you get poverty

2017-08-25 23:06:41 UTC

What's your preferred system?

2017-08-25 23:06:54 UTC

other than muh smash everything

2017-08-25 23:07:14 UTC

Do you know how markets work?

2017-08-25 23:07:25 UTC

yes

2017-08-25 23:07:31 UTC

answer the question

2017-08-25 23:07:38 UTC

what's a better system than a free market

2017-08-25 23:07:39 UTC

When you buy and sell investment, someone gets a profit and someone gets a loss.

2017-08-25 23:07:43 UTC

no shit

2017-08-25 23:07:57 UTC

What's a better way to do it?

2017-08-25 23:08:51 UTC

The free market is just a way to redistributed wealth into the hands of the few.

2017-08-25 23:08:57 UTC

Zero sum.

2017-08-25 23:09:08 UTC

It is also global.

2017-08-25 23:09:16 UTC

Stop dodging the question

2017-08-25 23:09:36 UTC

A 'better' system depends on what you consider 'better'. What metric?

2017-08-25 23:09:42 UTC

Wealth

2017-08-25 23:10:52 UTC

Wealth is about progress and productivity. Free market is not a perfect distribution for this process. A powerful AI could manage the economy better, theoretically.

2017-08-25 23:11:25 UTC

a powerful AI huh

2017-08-25 23:11:27 UTC

how do you figure

2017-08-25 23:11:41 UTC

seems really dumb at first glance

2017-08-25 23:11:58 UTC

Would it have come up with the iphone?

2017-08-25 23:12:16 UTC

Individuals are not gods, not even rational agents. A brutally objective and rational AI would manage any economic goal way more efficency than a free market of monkeys.

2017-08-25 23:12:29 UTC

Need some proof for that

2017-08-25 23:12:37 UTC

Sounds illogical

2017-08-25 23:13:20 UTC

Take the M3Wpill. The rich 1st world exploits the poorer 2nd world and 3rd world. Watch Jason Unruhe.

2017-08-25 23:13:32 UTC

Incentive and progress can be measured objectively, according to your goals. It is just another metric on a huge spreadsheet.

2017-08-25 23:13:40 UTC

Not really

2017-08-25 23:13:43 UTC

Programs and ai can be very complex, so in theory an ai can work better than human free market

2017-08-25 23:13:55 UTC

because sometimes people produce things people didn't know they wanted

2017-08-25 23:14:19 UTC

Of course. Randomness can also be measured and allocated to accordingly.

2017-08-25 23:14:27 UTC

How

2017-08-25 23:14:46 UTC

Also this is a future solution for a current system

2017-08-25 23:15:00 UTC

Give me a better system currently for creating more wealth

2017-08-25 23:15:31 UTC

is more wealth whats important?

2017-08-25 23:15:34 UTC

Well, an AI, specifically machine learning, continually experiments and tries new and unexpected things to find solutions.

2017-08-25 23:15:40 UTC

It's how we're measuring it

2017-08-25 23:15:53 UTC

How does it know when it has a solution?

2017-08-25 23:15:56 UTC

Show it to people?

2017-08-25 23:16:07 UTC

He could come up with billion solutions

2017-08-25 23:16:14 UTC

The wealth metric over time.

2017-08-25 23:16:18 UTC

and people would have to wait on stand by to produce it?

2017-08-25 23:16:25 UTC

sounds really far fetched

2017-08-25 23:16:37 UTC

I'm sure it does.

2017-08-25 23:16:50 UTC

That;s nonsense, you can't predict a products success

2017-08-25 23:16:58 UTC

Otherwise people would already be doing it

2017-08-25 23:17:09 UTC

If you're talking about the future I don't care

2017-08-25 23:17:12 UTC

Do you know that the vast majority of market trades are already done by AI?

2017-08-25 23:17:21 UTC

Market trades yes

2017-08-25 23:17:24 UTC

Producing goods no

2017-08-25 23:18:33 UTC

Manufacturing, too. AI is used to optimise processes, in the design and assembly. We are already merging into a new future. And with increased automation, the free market will be harder and harder to justify because it will be superfluous.

2017-08-25 23:19:10 UTC

We will end with so much unused garbage

2017-08-25 23:19:28 UTC

And who will decide what the machines will produce?

2017-08-25 23:19:38 UTC

Also an AI?

2017-08-25 23:19:48 UTC

Soon there will be a tipping point where the free market is actually a hindrance to overall progress, and that's when you get social change.

2017-08-25 23:19:52 UTC

Because then you're talking about the future

2017-08-25 23:20:11 UTC

Free market a hindrance, what a joke

2017-08-25 23:20:25 UTC

Nordic countries still have the ability to extract wealth from developing nations through their corporations and have more favorable trade relations with the rest of the developed world than Venezuela does.

Nordic countries also don't have the same history of being a victim of imperialism that Latin American countries have. It's hard to build a social democracy when you're starting with less than nothing.

Welp reply from leftpol

2017-08-25 23:20:28 UTC

Of course. Monkeys are not as smart as machines.

2017-08-25 23:20:45 UTC

More creative still

2017-08-25 23:20:53 UTC

Haha.

2017-08-25 23:21:08 UTC

And a man can fail many times, a centralized AI that fails is a catastrophe

2017-08-25 23:21:16 UTC

Are you arguing for one centralized AI?

2017-08-25 23:21:46 UTC

p2p

2017-08-25 23:22:29 UTC

Also you said soon, which implies this is not currently doable

2017-08-25 23:22:31 UTC

You are the master of assumptions. AI has built in redundencies as apart of the overall objective progress of your 'wealth' metric. A catastrophe is a pretty big problem to achieving this.

2017-08-25 23:22:37 UTC

Which is not relevant to my first question

2017-08-25 23:22:56 UTC

A better economic system for making wealth, give me one

2017-08-25 23:23:21 UTC

An AI would be way more resilient than stupid monkeys.

2017-08-25 23:23:33 UTC

future talk, not the question I asked for

2017-08-25 23:23:49 UTC

I don't know. I am not an economist.

2017-08-25 23:24:09 UTC

Asking for an alternative implies future.

2017-08-25 23:24:40 UTC

Obviously what we have now is not the best possible scenario, so I hope you are not going to suggest that.

2017-08-25 23:24:46 UTC

Then why did you laugh when I implied a free market creates more wealth for those people

2017-08-25 23:25:28 UTC

is someone interested in raiding discord servers?

2017-08-25 23:25:43 UTC

I laughed when you said monkeys were more creative than AI.

2017-08-25 23:25:57 UTC

So you agree a free market makes the people in that system more wealthy?

2017-08-25 23:26:09 UTC

Than any other current alternative

2017-08-25 23:26:28 UTC

'Any other current alternative'. Nice little trick there.

2017-08-25 23:26:49 UTC

If it's not current or an alternative it's useless for now

2017-08-25 23:26:55 UTC

No trick at all

2017-08-25 23:27:41 UTC

Current alternative is an oxymoron. There is only one dominant global system, it is impossible to compare it with anything else on equal footing.

2017-08-25 23:28:11 UTC

Wat a copout

2017-08-25 23:28:20 UTC

Come up with any system you'd like

2017-08-25 23:28:39 UTC

I already did map it out for you.

2017-08-25 23:28:45 UTC

in the future

2017-08-25 23:28:51 UTC

Make it current

2017-08-25 23:28:58 UTC

Well, any alternative must happen in the future fam.

2017-08-25 23:29:05 UTC

lmao this guy

2017-08-25 23:29:13 UTC

you don't have to try this hard to say no

2017-08-25 23:29:40 UTC

What we have now is what we have.

2017-08-25 23:29:45 UTC

Just agree the free market makes people more wealthy than other systems

2017-08-25 23:29:56 UTC

That's false though.

2017-08-25 23:30:12 UTC

how

2017-08-25 23:30:14 UTC

It's just the status quo.

2017-08-25 23:30:20 UTC

nice cop out

2017-08-25 23:30:44 UTC

If we were in a socialist world I'd be able to argue for a free market

2017-08-25 23:30:47 UTC

ez

2017-08-25 23:30:53 UTC

Because it makes sense

2017-08-25 23:31:00 UTC

how does it make sense?

2017-08-25 23:31:06 UTC

are you gonna say its natural?

2017-08-25 23:31:17 UTC

Do you have some advance simulation of alternative universe to study in order to make this conclusion about it being 'better than any other possible alternative'?

2017-08-25 23:31:30 UTC

Giving people more freedom to build what they see fit and selling it which weeds out the less good ones is simply helping everyone

2017-08-25 23:32:15 UTC

Well you don't like to think through after smashing the state so I'm just going to chalk it up to you not having thought about the question at all

2017-08-25 23:32:26 UTC

Just flat out never tried

2017-08-25 23:32:50 UTC

Here we go. Moving the goal posts like a champ.

2017-08-25 23:33:11 UTC

No goalpost moved

2017-08-25 23:33:16 UTC

many questions dodged however

2017-08-25 23:33:26 UTC

You speculated about some future AI

2017-08-25 23:33:38 UTC

Yet speculating about a better system for now is too much

2017-08-25 23:33:40 UTC

I entertained your wealth metric quite well. Your question is speculative.

2017-08-25 23:33:42 UTC

You refuse to do that

2017-08-25 23:34:21 UTC

A better system for 'right now'? That's a practical question, firstly.

2017-08-25 23:34:34 UTC

answer it or not

2017-08-25 23:34:38 UTC

I'm going to bed in 30

2017-08-25 23:36:03 UTC

Well, I showed you current trends in markets, design and manufacture, the trend towards AI and automation, and suggested that if this continues free market run by humans will be superfluous, and as an alternative, and conscious effort to centralise the economic in AI would be objectively better than a free market run by monkeys. That's it.

2017-08-25 23:36:43 UTC

Take it or leave it. I am happy with that response. Thanks for the chat.

2017-08-25 23:36:47 UTC

The old future communism meme

2017-08-25 23:37:00 UTC

Absolutely unable to answer a question directly

2017-08-25 23:37:05 UTC

what a joke

2017-08-25 23:38:06 UTC

Somehow me saying that the current system creates the most wealth is not true

2017-08-25 23:38:10 UTC

he doesn't want to answer the question because he knows it's true

2017-08-25 23:38:11 UTC

yet not capable of proving it

2017-08-25 23:38:40 UTC

He has no answers economically or politically (anarchist who proudly doesn't know what comes after the state falls)

2017-08-25 23:38:46 UTC

The point is that the current system provides too much wealth for a small population

2017-08-25 23:39:07 UTC

@Trve Metalist that is irrelevant to the question tho

2017-08-25 23:39:23 UTC

I consider at least 80% of the people in the west as very wealthy

2017-08-25 23:39:34 UTC

compared to the third world yes

2017-08-25 23:39:38 UTC

No you're not a millionaire, but you live like one 30 years ago

2017-08-25 23:39:47 UTC

Not good enough?

2017-08-25 23:40:09 UTC

however our current system exploits the labour of an inmense amount of people

2017-08-25 23:40:17 UTC

its always been like this

2017-08-25 23:40:23 UTC

before its been the europeans

2017-08-25 23:40:25 UTC

They line up to work for them in India and Africa

2017-08-25 23:40:27 UTC

now its the third world
