The Blank Slate State

Posted on by

“It is easy to take one look at Honduras and write it off as an irredeemable mess.  But a few dreamers see hope for an experiment that may upend our notions of what a state can accomplish. For the last few years, libertarians and other futurists have gazed upon this misgoverned mess of mountainous jungle and imagined a clean slate for innovations in political and economic growth. Honduras, they believe, can become a laboratory for creating wealth-producing institutions that can then be replicated worldwide. The only catch: To become a 21st-century trailblazer, Honduras—or at least a small territory within it—must become, well, not Honduras.”

Google CEO wants to ‘set aside a part of the world’ for unregulated experimentation

Posted on by

“‘There are many exciting things you could do that are illegal or not allowed by regulation,’ Page said. ‘And that’s good, we don’t want to change the world. But maybe we can set aside a part of the world.’ He likened this potential free-experimentation zone to Burning Man and said that we need ‘some safe places where we can try things and not have to deploy to the entire world.’ Google is already well-known for coming up with some pretty interesting ideas — the idea of seeing what Page could come up with in this lawless beta-test country is simultaneously exciting and a bit terrifying.”

David Galland: The Other Side of the Wall

Posted on by

“When we arrived in Cafayate, it was with some entirely natural trepidation. After all, not only were we going to be living in a remote corner of Argentina, we were bringing along our teenage kids with all that that implies. We pondered all manner of questions and concerns. Would our stumbling knowledge of the local lingo prove a hamper? Would the highly dysfunctional government hereabouts be an impediment at every turn, the bureaucracy frustrating? Would the kids adapt to the new environment and be able to get a good education? Yet, never ones to worry ourselves into inaction, we plowed ahead and on October 22 set down our bags in Cafayate.”

Doug Casey: Conspiracies, Gold and the Continuing ‘Greater Depression’

Posted on by

Doug Casey’s Primer on Internationalization — International Man

“On a personal level, try to produce more than you consume. Keep your savings in gold, not in currencies. Diversify internationally because your biggest risks today are political, not market risks, not investment risks. The investment risks today are huge because with governments all over the world creating trillions in new currency units they’ve driven stock markets to what I think are unsustainable levels. They’ve driven the bond markets to become the biggest bubble in world history. The bond markets are in a bigger bubble now than tech stocks were in the year 2000 or real estate was in the year 2007. Think like a speculator, because they’re going to ignite lots more bubbles.”

Erie County Sheriff Howard on SAFE Act: ‘I won’t enforce it’

Posted on by

“It’s no secret Sheriff Timothy B. Howard is opposed to New York’s new gun-control law. But Howard, who is running for re-election this year, is now ratcheting up his opposition by filing a friend of the court brief in the lawsuit seeking to overturn the SAFE Act and, even more important perhaps, by suggesting the law not be enforced. ‘I’m more than reluctant,’ he said of the new law Thursday. ‘I won’t enforce it.’ Howard, one of four sheriffs who joined in filing the brief this week, said he considers the law unconstitutional and a waste of valuable resources, and believes it will ultimately be overturned by the courts.”

Bitcoin mining – public companies

Posted on by

“Bitcoin mining companies have several advantages over running a mining operation yourself.  The most significant one is that you don’t have to worry about setting up and maintaining mining hardware.  Many of these companies have built-in plans to increase their speed as the network difficulty rises, reducing the risk of a quickly diminishing payout. Additionally, selling shares is significantly more liquid than selling mining hardware if you decide not to be in the mining business anymore. The counter-point to these advantages is that you will be paying a management fee of several percent that will come out of profits.”
