Miscellaneous Thoughts Part 34

  • I am against dwarf bowling. I think this sport could be harmful to dwarfs especially when they run into the bowling pins.
  • The free-market system is like voting. Every time you buy a product or use a business’ service you are basically expressing your interest for one product or service over another. It is about choice. So, if you are against the free-market you are against the right to vote.
  • A basketball team cannot win a game if everyone passes the ball. Some player has to be selfish and risk a shot. Even in team sports individual talents is important. There is no such thing as a collective.
  • Humor: There is a secret group called the Free Accordionists. They are like the Free Masons but haven’t been around that long.
  • The free-market system uses a breadth first search algorithm to solve problems.
  • If a person has a potentially fatal contagious disease (like Ebola) it is his/her responsibility not to go out in public and infect everyone. This includes buses, taxis, and especially airplanes.
  • The formula for power corrupting: Arrogance + power = control freak.
  • The scientific triad: The scientific method, curiosity, fair-mindedness.
  • Executive orders should be limited to six per term.
  • The problem with socialism is everyone wants to share the benefits but no-one wants to share the costs.
