He has before...

I believe it. God I've gotten used to reading peer reviewed journals, so even the first two paragraphs from this nobody is painful >_<

It reads like a nice guys online dating profile wouldn't you say?

?

You must explain yourself. I recommend actually reading the entire thing before judging it. The beginning starts slow to ease people into the topic. I discuss and engage in discussion with just about every alternative view especially in the last section. Not going to reference many sources when they are not necessary to reference. These are my thoughts on the topic. Not many treatises I know reference things anyways lmao. It's not meant to be a peer-reviewed article (not yet)

But of course, you can comment on my voice all you want

"To get the right word in the right place is a rare achievement. To condense the diffused light of a page of thought into the luminous flash of a single sentence, is worthy to rank as a prize composition just by itself...Anybody can have ideas - the difficulty is to express them without squandering a quire of paper on an idea that ought to be reduced to one glittering paragraph.."
- Mark Twain

That just about sums up your ramblings.

Yep, pretty much. It's more about showing off than writing a great work on the subject. Everything I read just parrots what I know he's read. Nothing original or great, just a big "LOOK AT ME". Not to mention the interpretation of how value is assigned is incredibly shallow..... Honestly it seems more like something that came from a long-winded tea partier than anything else.

no. The point of the paper is the to thorough. Very thorough. If you read my other "ramblings" you would have discovered the same thing (like my "On Marriage")

The thesis, or main point, is indeed stated in the first paragraph...getting people to view money as a progenitor, an arbiter of accountability.

However...that doesn't really defend anything does it? That doesn't assuage everyone's possible concerns. That doesn't relate it to anything else in reality worth relating it to.

Mark Twain wrote children's novels for entertainment. I don't think his quote applies here.

Parrots? no. I am very explicit when and where I am introducing ideas I have read. Most of the ideas expressed here are original (to my best of knowledge). I reference stuff throughout the paper (no reference section though, sorry for peer-review only people). I explain these ideas in my own way, and my own way of understanding the issue in general. It is a blog for all ideas I hold to be true and correct, and for explaining and going through every possible counter (just about). I half-agree, 100% agree, and 100% disagree with all kinds of claims. It's good fun really.

I know you think it's original. That's something I too would have thought at the time I would have written something of this quality. This reads about like my 11th grade english papers. Lots of generalizations, anecdotes, no real evidence given, the antithesis of concise, etc. etc.

Keep reading brah. It's not shallow. It's a simple explanation that makes itself much more clear when I explain other ways people assign value and keep track of it.
