Compulsory education means a more employable workforce. While the idea of optional education is, in theory, a good one, it encoarages the creation of a class of people who are completely uneducated and hence unemployable. While some of these people will turn their lack-of-official-education into a trade (perhaps becoming apprentice carpenters/metal workers/mechanics/skilled workers), many will turn to petty crime, especially in urban areas, where a higher concentration of people means more targets and hence a more sustainable income. Consider the following study; http://ftp.iza.org/dp5000.pdf
True, and this is why I agree in centralized government enforcing standards that the majority agreed on.
The idea that different communities enforce incompatible laws (especially in a country with such divergent opinions on certain issues as the united states) is not a ridiculous statement.
While this depends highly on the size of the communities involved (and I'm assuming these would generally be quite small to avoid tyranny by majority), consider what would happen when a community of strongly religious immigrants that are staunchly anti-gay settle only two blocks away from an extremely secular, liberal community, that praises and celebrates homosexuality? Equally, it is not impossible to envisage a group of more liberally minded americans in the bible belt legalizing abortion while all those around it abhor it. There are issues that many people feel extremely strongly about, and will rarely be happy to compromise on, even if it is "for the benefit of their community". These are also issues that when similarly minded people bind together they generally punish most harshly (for the first example, many religious communities - given absolute free will to punish people as they see fit - could easily be seen to impose incarceration [if not death] for engaging in homosexual activities).
Consider the social liberties you feel most strongly about. How much could you compromise these for the benefit of the community next door?
...who would find cooperation very difficult from such a broad cross-section of American life.
But the planners would still indirectly support the military. Even if you put an entirely new commission in charge of supplying military goods, it would still rely on the central planners.
Wage control is very, very dangerous. In an era of economic expansion, wages naturally rise. An overwhelming amount of empirical evidence has supported this phenomenon. Both in Gilded Age America, and in 1920s America, and in 1980s Britain - known to be eras of 'unrestricted capitalism' - wages rose substantially without the need for minimum wage laws. In the Roaring 20s, wages actually increased faster than they did during FDR's tenure of price-fixing and wage-setting. In the former era, real wages rose by 40%. In the latter, real wages rose 8%. Absolutely shocking figures when you consider the priorities of the governments of the times. Between 1983 and 1989, wages grew at a faster rate than in the previous two decades. We only got a minimum wage law in 1998.
Wage controls either foster unemployment, inflation, or both. They also block access to the labour market for young people, immigrants and retirees.
First two work in the short-term, but often fall into decay from the inefficiency of nationalised industries. We saw it here in the 1970s. Education can be OK when government-run, but I think a better system would be state-subsidised charter and private schools, with vouchers for the poor. Prison systems would also be ideal private, if there was regulation to ensure rehabilitation programs.
This is unlikely to be seen in social democratic systems, as many governments rely on corporations.
The needless bureaucracy in this would gradually be shed in favour of more direct control by the planning committee.
Well We already have something like that (Congress) so I don't see why it wouldn't work.
.........Okay.. Unlike most people I'll stop arguing when a better point is presented.
Wage Control can also be very helpful. No it isn't going to help your High and Might Upper-Class corporate Businesses. Wage control is there to help make sure that the Working Class Doesn't get screwed over by the greed of their Employer.
Which Causes Corruption Via Capitalism. you rely on something your going to help them over someone else.
Look. To me it seems like your only argument here is "There are no good people in politics. Thus meaning the entire Government is always bad."
Nothing wrong with that. I hold very strong views so I rarely back down on a point, but sometimes I recognise when mine has become moot.
Well, often employers are actually encouraged to 'screw over' the workers by minimum wage laws, as they'll often cut the cost of labour by reducing hours, laying off workers and mechanising. (Granted, the latter does have the benefit of reducing prices and increasing real income... for those who still have jobs.)
Stefan Molyneux came up with a good analogy to address this. "If new regulations make soccer goals twice as wide, what coach will say to his team, 'Listen, I know they've widened the nets, but I think this is crazy. It harms the spirit of the game. So what we're going to do is just aim for the middle of the net! Screw the new rules, I want to preserve the integrity of this game by aiming just for the middle, as if the goals hadn't been widened!'"
I am vehemently anti-corporatist, and I think a certain amount of blame has to go to the corporations that exploit political advantages, but this would not be a problem if there were no government. Politicians gain their strength from corporations, who in return are granted handouts through regulations, subsidies and tax loopholes. Capitalism doesn't corrupt politicians, politicians corrupt capitalism.
That's not really what I'm saying. Absolute power corrupts absolutely, and whether you like it or not there's no effective way to organise an economy without a central planner. The social democracies of Europe were centrally planned until they collapsed under their own weight.
I've never had an in-warranty Xbox, but had it repaired twice at two different stores for no extra charge. You only need to pay for an out-of-warranty repair if you go to Microsoft, who'll do it for free if it's in warranty. And since the Red Ring of Death appeared pretty quickly after release...
Even if they did deliberately rig all their consoles, they would only be targeting small markets outside of the US and the UK. What possibly could motivate such a short-sighted business strategy?
It's motivation for profit does help people. Capitalism is a series of unequal transactions that nevertheless benefit both parties. In exchange for producing for an enterprise, a worker is given employment. In exchange for giving currency, a consumer is given a brand new car. While to many capitalism seems like a heartless system only concerned for its own self-interest, it has produced wondrous results in lifting people out of poverty and driving up real wages. Between 1990 and 2010, world poverty was cut in half, especially so in China and India, which have seen substantial market reforms. (Which aren't exactly known to have Nordic welfare models.) The markets of these nations may seem primitive compared to ours, but they will develop into thriving consumer economies akin to the West where poverty is low and growth is high.
Thank you, Pax, I'm sure your parents are just as remarkable. Education is important to enable individuals to achieve, but you can definitely get ahead without it. I think we can both agree there.
You're right in that men are made to be good, but it's incredible that we even have such an ability. Lesser animals don't show such compassion. I believe that a sense of morality, or even the possibility of it, is a gift from God to the human race.
Nevertheless, I think there is definitely a link between the effect that government spending has on private investment. Every dollar spent by the government is one taken away from a more efficient private sector. Here's a good article investigating whether private charity can replace welfare: http://bleedingheartlibertarians.com/2013/12/will-private-charity-be-enough/
A reasonable concern, but one not really based on empirical evidence. As I mentioned to Time Alliance below (or above, if you don't have NationStates++) real wages tend to rise exponentially when the private sector is less inhibited by the government. The eras of 'cutthroat capitalism' in the Gilded Age and the 1920s saw real wages rise significantly, while Franklin 'Hero of the Poor' Roosevelt's disastrous price-fixing programs brought a pitiful 8% increase in the minimum wage.
Of course debt cycles are diabolical, which is why it is important for private sector unions and workers to negotiate fair terms of contract. One of the great advantages of the 'Nordic Model' is that it favours business/worker contractual negotiation as opposed to regulation, which has worked extremely well in Scandinavia.
Infrastructure programs are important in some cases - Africa's, for example, are in dire need of improvement - but as an economic stimulus they have often done well to misallocate resources. Why invest capital in inefficient, boondoggled works projects when it could be used to fund enterprises that increase both productive consumption and long-term employment?
You can thank the Fed and the government for that. If not for its 'encouragement' of overly risky loans, corporatist incentives and the enormous Greenspan Credit Expansion, we probably wouldn't even have had a recession of that magnitude. Meltdown by Thomas Woods provides a more in-depth analysis of the crisis.
Taxes indeed are theft, and the claim that taxation is 'rent' for living on an organisation's land implies that governments own the nations they preside over. But states do not own nations, they merely lead them based on the will of the people. The state is an artificial construct in human history not really created to 'guide' people, but to act as a neutral party in contractual disputes and judicial matters. So if anything, we the people are the moral owners of the government, not the other way around.
So we're either stealing from slave-owners, or we are the natural owners of our own bodies and produce.
You're right. I'd rather live in absolute squalor in a free world than in the chains of comfortable oppression. Life is about making your own way, not relying on the state to strip you of your dignity and give you a free ride to the grave.
Not benefiting if it HURTS people's lives. Look if we didn't have a Minimum wage then lets see. businesses could pay...Oh I don't know their employees maybe... $0.38 an Hour. Yep. I see how that can support people.
That didn't take long. The problems that could be started by no Government far outreach the problems Government causes. And wait. Capitalism is the thing where the business pay for candidates correct? Yes I believe so. Corporations with the most money basically determine who wins Presidency. Capitalism thus Corrupts the Presidency.
You just said it again. "Absolute power corrupts Absolutely." Translated into: Anyone in a position of power becomes corrupt.
Well try it again. All you need are the right people. Experienced people. And besides checks and balances and all that. Put it in a part of Legislature. But only let the committee distribute money in accordance to need. If it's another part of the legislature then the Checks and Balances of Democracy fix it.
Executive- To pass a plan it must go through the executive Branch where the President can Veto it.
judiciary- Once passed this branch can check up and make sure it's constitutional.
I vote Yes
Yes
It's a possibility, but in reality this is undesirable for businesses. Wages set below their market level often harm the quality of goods and the overall productiveness of the business, so it is usually uncompetitive to set wages low. The only exception to this is in a small town with little competition where enterprise can get away with doing it, in which case unionisation is a legitimate means of raising wages.
Your concerns are not supported by empirical evidence. As I mentioned before, economic expansions often result in higher wages for all. Germany, Italy and the Nordic nations don't even have a minimum wage; wages are set through collective bargaining and contractual negotiation. And they have some of the highest real wage rates in the world.
Capitalism is the free and unfettered exchange of goods and services. This can never be fully achieved under a state. Capitalism is an economic system built on voluntary transactions, while the state is a coercive institution that leaches of off the productive members of society to its own gain. Capitalism is not about using an unnatural power to force your will upon others, it is about voluntary cooperation to serve your fellow men.
I'm not questioning the morality of planners, all I'm saying is that for planning to work effectively (at least in the short term) there needs to be a centralised control. It doesn't matter if the planner chooses to serve alongside the institutions of democracy or not: he has arbitrary power to invalidate them. And if he doesn't do it, one of his successors will.
My goodness what's up with all the yes's?
Regardless of one's cultural opinions on marriage, there's something fundamentally wrong with denying someone equal rights because of their personality traits. In fact I don't think someone's personal choices are anyone's business but their own.
Well, I'm Christian and think homosexuals are mislead. Thus, don't believe they deserve marriage or adoption rights. Other than that, I respect them and treat them like I would anyone else.
I too am a Christian and have met many sharing similar feelings to yours, but if you believe in limited government you shouldn't believe in the state coercively intruding into people's personal lives.
I'm Mormon and believe Homosexuality is bad however I don't see why they shouldn't have the same rights as everyone else.
I'm getting a strong "homosexuality is bad" vibe here. I'm a Christian who understands the cultural disparity between now and Biblical times, and think it more important to "walk in the way of love" (Ephesians 5:2) than to accuse people of being immoral based on orientation.
That said, this issue is not, or at least should not be, the government's business. Marriage in general should not be the government's business. Or any government's business.
Agreed.
Agreed.
I'll respond to that long pot in a minute.
If anyone would like to join me in a raid against a communist region, telegram me.
Seeing the rants all over Facebook about Austin Peterson's 'statism', I've become convinced more than ever now that the biggest problem the liberty movement faces today is rabid ideological absolutism. Too often do I see purists denouncing Lincoln as a tyrant, Reagan as a neo-con, the Confederacy as some kind of a libertarian paradise. And while it's fine to hold these views, branding any libertarian who disagrees with them as a traitor to the movement is really hindering our cause. Too often do others see the good as the enemy of the perfect.
This has worried me for a long time.
Hey, Pev. Remember when you wondered whether the International Republican Union was worthy to remain an independent region?
There's no way I'm turning back now.
Good to know! It's taken you a while, but the IRU seems to be gaining quite a bit of traction now. Good luck.
Thanks. Between the legislation party and the surprise feature, I'm having a hard time keeping up with the activity surge.
Still, it's no Libertatem.
What region? Does it have Political Parties?
1000 recruitment TGs sent..
Holy...I better get my recruitment telegram up.
Nice! I better start buying more stamps, I'm fresh out.
Would anybody be interested in doing a 2017 US politics RP? I was thinking of this scenario: Rand Paul would be President with a slimly Democratic Congress, and the challenge is for Paul to work with the Democrats to pass his agenda. What do you guys think?
International Republican Union
It currently has no political parties, as I am not a fan of dividing a united populace into warring factions. Granted, nations could start their own if they wanted to, but any party system would be purely private-owned.
Rand Paul be president? Hahahahahaha....That's a scary scenario
Uh-huh.
I sincerely believe that he can do it. All candidates need a strategy that can appeal to a base as wide as possible - Lincoln held a moderate position on slavery while campaigning to preserve the Union, Reagan united socially conservative Democrats and economic libertarians to form a strong coalition, Clinton cast himself as a moderate candidate that would balance the budget and fix the economy. I think Rand Paul will act conservatively in the Primaries and promise to roll back the years of Obama, while once he gets the nomination he'll harshly criticise Bush and demonise Hillary is a continuation of Bush-Obama. Attacking both parties, at least once he's the Republican candidate, could do him a world of good to appeal to moderates.
But anyway, do you want to participate in the RP?
I hope he doesn't. We need a third party yes. But not a Libertarian, Green or Marujuana party guy.
Yes. I love Role-Plays. What roles will be open?
Well, I'm at home with a sprained ankle. This is so fun.
Let's initiate propaganda.
Only joining the Democratic - Republican Party can prevent that from happening again. Join the DRP!
Sounds fun.
The Anti-Corporatist Party - because small businesses are better than corporations at everything, including annoying propaganda.
we should just abolish the regional government
OH HECK NO!
Maybe we could have:
-President Paul (me)
-Vice President (Rubio?)
-House Majority/Senate Minority Leaders (R)
-Senate Majority/House Minority Leaders (D)
-Senator Elizabeth Warren (D)
-A handful of Independents and Third-Partiers in both chambers, just to shake things up
Thoughts? Suggestions?
Okay. Not playing Dems or Reps.
Socialist Party in Senate or maybe unity party....or pirate party!
Has the Socialist Party ever succeeded in getting anyone into Senate?
Sadly no. Because America is too ignorant and stuck in the "Red scare."
They won something in Seattle.
You could play Bernie Sanders?
Political party
Independent
Other political
affiliations
Liberty Union Party
Affiliated non-member
Democratic Party
Vermont Progressive Party
Me like his Policies so far....let me read them real fast.
Bernie Sanders if the kind of guy who can make good points but never good solutions. I respect him for having the balls to criticise Obama, as opposed to simply falling in line with the statist drones.
.......And that's the first person you thought for me?
.......dang.......
My only personal gripe with him is that he seems to hold the American definition of socialism. He claims to be a socialist and then points to Scandinavia as "proof that it works".
But regardless, he's a relatively independent politician who votes with his conscience rather than the party line, so he'd suit you.
What would that definition of Socialism be? I dislike the American Definition of everything so.
Doesn't vote on PArty Lines. Okay. Let me read his policies. again. I'll decide.
Polling conducted in August 2011 by Public Policy Polling found that Sanders' approval rating was 67% and his disapproval rating 28%, making him then the third-most popular senator in the country.
Great place to start.
I Don't Support Sanders environmental Policies but I can play a Deranged Global warming Believer.
I Support his DISCLOSE act.
I support his Healthcare act.
I support his LGBT rights.
I support the fact he is Social Liberal (To an Extent.)
I don't support his Budget...I don't even know how to play as a budgeted fool.
He had a 'Sanders for President' run in 2012. I LOVE THIS! I would've liked the Democrats....
"The real issue here, if you look at the Koch Brothers' agenda, is: look at what many of the extreme right-wing people believe. Obamacare is just the tip of the iceberg. These people want to abolish the concept of the minimum wage, they want to privatize the Veteran's Administration, they want to privatize Social Security, end Medicare as we know it, massive cuts in Medicaid, wipe out the EPA, you don't have an Environmental Protection Agency anymore, Department of Energy gone, Department of Education gone. That is the agenda. And many people don't understand that the Koch Brothers have poured hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars into the Tea Party and two other kinds of ancillary organizations to push this agenda. ”
—Senator Bernie Sanders, MSNBC News (October 7, 2013)[50][51] (regarding the US government shutdown of 2013).
I like this guy.
Collective ownership/management of the means of production either through workers' cooperation or through state control of the economy. A mixed economy with state-controlled healthcare, education and energy does not qualify as socialism. The American view (espoused by the Tea Party and seemingly accepted by everyone else) is that corporatist healthcare (the ACA) is in fact socialism and that all of Europe is a socialist dictatorship, with quasi-socialist nations like Venezuela being full-on communism.
Indeed, he actually introduced the Federal Reserve Transparency Act with Ron Paul.
Lets see......America is as Usual Wrong. Europe is actually mostly a Right Wing-Authoritarian country.
I love hearing statists accuse libertarianism as some kind of a shadow ideology created by the Koch Brothers to advance their agenda. I didn't even know who they were before Being Liberal Facebook drones started bringing them up. It's also funny how they and Rupert Murdoch are literally the only big businessmen I can think of who support the ideology; the rest either fall in the Republican "More Subsidies" Party or the Democratic "More Loopholes" Party.
Country? :P I definitely wouldn't go that far. Depends where you go, but most nations here have large welfare states and draconian gun, tax and banking policies. But in the past few decades countries like Britain and Sweden have begun to move towards neo-liberalism, a trend which will most likely spread to other countries. If you look at France, their 'socialist' President has recently abandoned his tax-and-spend agenda to embrace budget and rate cuts.
But really, let's just get rid of this whole governing apparatus thing
NO!
But... but... who would post the RMB messages?
Anarchy= Evil.
Easy as that. Anarchy is the #1 worst system of Government (a lack thereof is still a form of government).
Philosophically, I am an anarchist. I despise the state. But practically I am a minarchist. Anarchy would completely vaporise private property rights, and the opportunity for new, more tyrannical states is just far too great.
I don't know the exact term that would describe me. Probably Democratic Socialist.
I would probably be a Fusionist
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusionism
The term 'democratic socialist' is misleading, as it does not believe in the abolition of capitalism, but rather the 'adjustment of it'. This flies in the face of central socialist doctrine.
I used to be a Fusionist, but then I took a Hayek to the knee.
HAHAHA! To funny Pev.. to funny.
Actually the true definition of Democratic Socialism is a Socialist Economic system alongside a Democratic Government.
I believe in this but with a little capitalism thrown in.
So I'd be a....ummm Mixed Economic Democratic Socialist?
The problem with this is that 'a little bit of capitalism' completely defeats the point of it being a socialist system. What you have proposed to me - a mixed economy where 'essential' services are government-controlled - is known as social democracy in Europe, and was quite a thing until the 1970s.
Mises that you're jealous of my marginal punductivity.
What are you trying to Sen?
Don't you mean Say?
Anyone going to attend one of the YAL state conventions?

Social Democracy...... that'd make me a Social Democrat which is almost the same as a Democratic Socialist.
Oops. That was a Strong mistake. Sylla me.
Post self-deleted by The Time Alliance.
Correction. I am a Moderate Progressive Centre Social Democrat. Which is mucho Grande compared to democratic Socialism.
So who's interested in the US politics RP?
Maybe.
Probably.
Sure.
Yep. I like it. Bernie here I come.
What part do you want to play in 2017 America? It's a split Congress with the major leaders available to play.
Another region I have liberated:
National Socialist Schutzstaffel
Note: the regional flag of this region should be the regional flag of REATO.
Good job, Neo-Con. And I'll consider it.
I wrote a little (8,000 word) treatise on Keynesian economics and a few other statist fallacies here, if anyone wants to read it: http://www.nationstates.net/nation=pevvania/detail=factbook/id=220993
How many people have taken the F scale?
?
The California F-scale is a 1947 personality test, designed by Theodor W. Adorno and others to measure the authoritarian personality.
I take a lot of Political Personality tests for fun just to see where I am compared to others.
My F-Scale rating was 3.3 which is typical of an American.

2.93
I'm a liberal airhead, apparently.
Haha
Perhaps the House Majority leader, if that list you posted earlier is indeed the final list of roles.
Names? No clue, [jokes] you're my President, do that for me. [/jokes]
I'm gonna give this a shot. Feel free to give me your opinions my fellow Libertatens.. This may be a bit of a controversial act i authored here. I will amend and or drop it all together based on your reactions.

You are disciplined but tolerant; a true American. LOL :P
Thank ya!
Hi guys.
Hello.
Welcome to Libertatem!
I like, but we'd need to make sure that the Military Manager keeps a tight record of all activities that fall in his jurisdiction. I will be supporting this bill.
So maybe I should add a little something to ensure there is checks and balances? Maybe a mandatory quarterly (every so many weeks months whatever.. suggestions?) review to the board or president?
Thank you.
Sure.
[B]ELECTIONS NEXT WEEK[/B]
Board elections begin next Tuesday the 25th and end on Thursday the 27th. The current Board is composed of these members:
Seat 1: [nation=short]Muh Roads[/nation] (RLP)
Seat 2: [nation=short]Humpheria[/nation] (RLP)
Seat 3: [nation=short]Ronald Reagan and Rick Grimes[/nation] (RLP)
Seat 4: [nation=short]Miencraft[/nation] (ACOP)
Seat 5: [nation=short]Alchandria[/nation] (LOP)
To challenge one of these Seats, announce your candidacy between now and Tuesday. I'd like to see some healthy competition with the RLP, so I encourage as many of you as you can to run.
Members of the RLP challenging incumbent Boardsmen in the RLP will be primaried.
Well, where to begin?
Firstly, I very much support the bill offered up by my colleague and the Board Majority Leader Muh Roads. I encourage the people to support this as well, a superbly written amendment vital to our regional security.
Secondly, as Board Chairman, I would like to lay some things out. At the beginning of this last term, the Board decided on a new developed caucus system. As we have so many parties, the party with the most members is known as the Majority Caucus, it elects the Majority Leader (Muh Roads) who leads that caucus. The other parties are caucused together as the Minority Caucus, they elect the Minority Leader (Miencraft) who leads the caucus. When the two caucuses are decided, they meet in session and vote between the Majority and Minority leader for Chairman. Then the caucus that offered up the Chairman gets a new Leader. So, if u want to be a part of this, rally your troops and the campaign buttons and come on down to the Campaign Trail!
Thirdly, I would like to announce my candidacy for Seat Two in the Board.
VOTE HUMPHERIA FOR SEAT TWO!!!
Why should you vote for Humpheria?
Experience
I have served as Board Chairman for two terms. I have fulfilled the description of both of my responsibilities to the letter. And I have made mistakes, which is the best teacher, I know what works. Many old timers can attest to my shortcomings.
Integrity
I have never been a closed book. When asked a question I answer truthfully and honestly, for those that remember, I didn't try to cover up or spin anything in the course of my little "mistake". An all-around good guy.
Patriotism
I am a Libertaten through and through. I help in the war on Communism whenever I can, and would gladly lay down my existence for this region. Libertatem is my home and I would do anything to serve her in the best way I can.
Conservative Minded
Ronald Reagan is my hero. I believe in fiscal responsibility and holding our elected officials accountable for what they do in office. I identify with Libertarians and fully support and agree with the RLP.
The Best Choice for Libertatem
I have proved countless times that I am the right and best choice for the second seat of the Board. I have officially been a resident of this region for over 120 days, and everyone of those days, I have done my best to serve this region, and I've only just begun.
So, join me as we ride into the horizon of Libertatem, ride into a better future. Vote Humpheria for the Second Seat of the Board.
Ill amend my bill soon and repost it for consideration. I really appreciate everyone's support.
I would also like to announce my candidacy for seat one.
Muh Roads and Humpheria have gone remarkably far to advance the region, enrich our traditions and strengthen our democratic institutions. The RLP endorses them both for reelection.
There's a topic on the forums entitled something like 'What would your three amendments to the Constitution be?'
For the US, I'd have
-a balanced budget amendment
-an amendment capping rates at 30% of income and banning taxation of lower-income groups
-an amendment affirming the right to secede.
