Date: January 22nd, 2018 7:34 PM Author: Drunken Foreskin Ape Disagree. The complexities, interactions, tendencies, etc. of our social, political, and economic systems can be described in simple terms and understood by a typical high schooler. Modern distractions and practical limitations are the primary hindrance. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3867800&forum_id=2#35213067) |

Date: January 22nd, 2018 7:43 PM Author: cocky turdskin we tell people to "save for retirement." a large portion of the population doesn't do that, for various reasons. a wise system would make it so that they saved automatically and didn't have to worry about the complexities of such a thing at all. that's a good example of how soft paternalism works better than traditional libertarianism.

Isn't that the same thing, brother? |

Date: January 22nd, 2018 7:54 PM Author: Drunken Foreskin Ape Distractions: garbage on TV, corporate-controlled news media presenting a distorted view of the world, professional sports, etc.
Limitations: working full-time, having a family to feed, etc. |

Date: January 22nd, 2018 7:56 PM Author: Flickering razzle-dazzle abode The "distractions" category seems like bait for dumbs.
Your limitations category seems distinct, at least in part. |

Date: January 22nd, 2018 7:52 PM Author: Indigo bawdyhouse no, libertarianism fails because it assumes that everyone in the world is 130+ IQ
in reality, the vast majority of the world's population is waaaaaaaayyyy too stupid to respond to abstract incentives based on low time preference. you have to be literally autistic or utterly clueless about human nature to buy into "libertarianism" past your early 20s |
