    This is possibly true; i have no clue what these laws entailed. So imagine trying to convince the rest of the country.

    Well, I thought we were discussing “any non-violent drug crime”. Obviously i’m for rehabilitaion for users; what would the downside be? Could you educate me?

    Hmm, I’m not so sure we should allow people to sell fentanyl pops or cocaine to kids without going to prison. Not arguing against your point broadly, but that’s exactly the type of…

    It’s an improvement ideologically, I suppose, but not a practical reduction in economic damage potential. In a very real sense it doesn’t matter it you have quit making something s…

    Right, but we’re discussing walmart.com vs amazon.com because walmart.com doesn’t have the crazy low prices that the retail store does. You’re absolutely right you can easily under…

    This isn’t necessarily hard or bad, though. If I take $100 and loan it to my neigbor, the debt appears from nowhere. Heck, theoretically, he could loan it right back under differen…

    Really? Free and open source software—in this case, an unencumbered ISA—seems like an easy parallel to communally managed means of production. Of course an implementation would be …

    Right, but then why buy from walmart if the competitive price is gone (as shown in the original example of online vs retail price)? If it’s just a single region agnostic price plus…

    Right, but that makes the online component even more confusing. Why would you ever order from walmart.com if they don’t offer those competitive prices? Amazon has plenty of stock, …
