Lots of oil workers basically do, judging by how local separatist movements always pop up the moment a place strikes oil. Scotland, Texas, Alberta, those are just the ones that came to mind.

I wonder if the "resource curse" is not a real thing, it's just that when you have oil, you also usually need a dictatorship ruthless enough to crush the inevitable separatists.

That's politics for you. Politics makes people dumb. Dumb dumb politics. Which brings us to...

Have you ever watched what happens when multiple people must together decide the destination of ANYTHING?

Politics. Politics. Politics.

We need less politics, not more.

When you have needs that you want satisfied, where do you go for quicker results? City hall or a shopping mall? Pennsylvania Avenue or a hipster boutique street?

Under communism this store would actually be black market. Which is not as cool as it sounds.
Which would you rather be doing? Browsing Che Gevera t-shirts on Amazon with one-click same-day shipping, or trying to convince a Texan roughneck that no, he didn't actually put that oil in the ground himself?

Just another day in paradise.
90% of politics consists of people complaining about the state of politics. 90% of commerce consists of people contently buying things they judge to be worth the money - and the other 10% consists of rants ending with "...and that's why I'm going to do business with someone else". You can't do that in politics, the only other viable political party is at least as bad.

Consider that an average grocery store in a capitalist country has 40,000 items, for sale every day.

Now imagine if instead of that, we voted every 2 years on what everybody will eat for breakfast. There's only two parties: the burnt-toast party and the cold gruel party.

That's the difference between commerce and politics. That is why we want as much of life as possible to be moved from the realm of politics to the realm of commerce, and not the other way around.


Disagree? By failing to register and debate me, you prove that liberals are factless frauds who only persuade through intimidation. To prove otherwise, debate me!
