| I wonder if at least part of the "nice guy" phenomenon might be caused by women letting rejected men down gently, as it were. As an example, some months ago I proposed a date to a female acquaintance who then rejected me with what boils down to "you are kind, but...". This came as a surprise to me a... |

| Well I mean practical things like how many toothbrushes to make, types, colors, supply chain management. How many toothbrushes? It is still possible to estimate demand and produce that many toothbrushes. It is still possible to estimate demand for red toothbrushes, if it is significantly different ... |

| By the way, this document might explain things better than I do below: http://haraldur.mysticsoftware.net/etsc1_3.pdf Surplus value is a falsehood based upon a lack of understanding of subjective evaluation by instead focusing on the false labor theory of value. Not really. I do not subscribe to LTV... |

| One of my obsessions is correcting other people. I am such a pedant. Democracy should allow people to go communist? Communism almost always results in the end of liberties and liberty is something that should be unabolishable. What you're talking about it is pure democracy where anything and everyth... |

| Communism, as in the economic system, is a type of Anarchy. It has absolutely nothing to do with Lenin, Stalin or Mao (all pricks). no rational person can think that anarchy would work on anything other than a minor localised scale And why is that? It worked in half of Spain. Is that a minor localis... |

| But still, essentially speaking, you are advocating the destruction of liberty for your goal. They would destroy my liberty. Now this in itself is a negation of freedom, one might argue that it is a necessary one but by doing so you must set up an authority over the rights of individuals that is es... |

| Negative rights like what? There are few things more authoritarian than the concept of private property, and surplus value, which are both fundamentally theft. modern industrial society due to the complex nature of the economy and of economic calculation. That does not make sense to me. The entire p... |

| Of course, 'authoritarian communist' is an oxymoron. However, I guess I dislike authoritarians who call themselves Communists more. They are more of a threat, as the AnCaps (another oxymoron, but bear with me) do not seem to me to have any chance of getting power and, to be honest, their political t... |
