Los Angeles Ports Face a Grim Future

Don't quote Ricardo. He was a constructivist mathematician (as was his great champion, Sraffa), and constructivist math is entirely discredited. Every economist uses it: that is why economists keep making wrong predictions.

As for shipping, its relevance is to the supply chain, which is collapsing and that collapse is unnoticed. It is the collapse of the supply chain which causes societies to collapse.

The answer? Not more power in the state--which both left and right want, as long as they control the state. No, we need more individually enforceable rights.

The reason housing is a catastrophe? Simple. Housing enjoys only minimum scrutiny (Lindsey v. Normet).

The reason medical care is corrupt, a mess and contributing to the class war? Medical care enjoys only minimum scrutiny (DeShaney v. Winnebago).

Same is true of liberty, maintenance and education. The level of scrutiny of those facts has to be raised or the country will collapse. We need to evict the West Coast Hotel scrutiny regime and install the maintenance regime, the doctrine of which is that the law maintains important facts.

Just see my book, The Eminent Domain Revolt.

Cheers fools,
