I guess you and I have different definitions of "conservative." What does conservative mean to you?
Which of the two political parties in America want to roll back Imperial Washington?
Which of the two political parties wants an ever larger, ever more powerful government and which one has a large percentage of people who want to go to a government with limited powers as enumerated in the US Constitution?
It will take root in professional services (surgeons, architects, etc...) and if it never makes it into the consumer market for one reason or another (say privacy concerns) it matters not. Google glasses (or some variant) has it use and will remain.
GPA != intelligence and never has been.
A "C" in organic chemistry shows more intellectual work and more capacity to do work than does receiving an "A" in basket weaving.
The real issue is that this will require investment in research and that means not making a profit in the next 3 years, which is about the duration of how far a CXO looks.
And yet money is being invested. How do you account for that?
Free markets is not synonymous with anarchy. Believe it or not governments and courts ARE part of free markets, and the markets ARE supposed to pay for these government services through fees.
Black markets often exist because of government foolishness (banning alcohol) and sometimes because an action is prohibited due to use of force: ie sx slavery. Governments, from a free market perspective, exist to redress fraud and violence and not to enforce morality or use business transaction fees to set up a patron-client relationship with sections of the populace.
NOBODY that's a proponent of free markets considers Black Markets to be models. Find where Menger or von Mises, or Hayek or Rothbard or Rand considered the black market to be something to emulate - a model, so to speak, of Free Markets.
What things, in your opinion, should the Republicans have supported? When President Walker (for example) does X (say back the Keystone Pipeline) would you expect the Democrats to fight that? Would you say that is proper? If so then shouldn't the Republicans fight Obama at every turn when Obama does something they disagree with?
Do you really believe this? Nobody will use their service and makes their company look like mud. Small businesses (and big ones) are very concerned about CC theft. They will not touch this product now.
Yeah for the dictatorship of the proletariat.. Nothing like a central authority telling you what to do. Just look to Mother Russian, Mao's China and the wonderful Kim leadership in Korea and see how socialism leads the way to freedom and person fulfillment.
While overpopulation is a problem it *has* certainly not a root cause of hunger and energy shortage, etc..
Re wind power - this will be easy to determine - what is the speed of the wind at different altitudes before and after the wind farm. If there is a major difference AND if wind farms become major fixtures on the landscape (meaning they cover a significant portion of an area's total acreage) then we have a problem.
What specifically about bitcoin is a ponzi scheme? The mining operation doesn't give an advantage to early adopters and more importantly mining will slowly but surely become a secondary source of income (as opposed to getting transaction fees).
I'm *assuming* (and you know what happens when you assume) that getting a grasp of the total number of positions will provide Go game designers needed information in making more powerful programs. Right now the Go programs are terrible (in comparison to Chess).
Chess is similar to boxing. You need to develop a strategy, and you need to think two or three steps ahead about what your opponent is doing. You have to be smart. But what’s the difference between chess and boxing? In chess, nobody is an expert, but everybody plays. In boxing everybody is an expert, but nobody fights.”
I guess I have no empathy. Boxing can be viewed on multiple levels but one of the best is the art of self-defense. How does one block, parry or otherwise avoid punches. Think of playing baseball or tennis - sometimes you swing hard and barely hit the ball, other times a smooth stroke, hitting the ball in the sweet spot and wham you hit it a million miles an hour. The same is true in boxing but now your facing a ball that reacts to your swing. By moving your body a few inches closer or further away you can decrease the impact of the blow significantly; even harder is when you time the blow and move your body with the punch again reducing the impact of the punch.
If they want a real test, try Orlando, Florida. I found it the most trying city to drive in of any I've ever lived in, thanks to the joyous combination of people visiting from Ohio that expect a mile clear ahead of them and people from New York who think 6 inches is enough of a gap for someone to cut them off.
Common, six inches isn't enough room to fit the nose of the car in. Everyone knows that you need at least 14 inches to inch your way in.:-)
Truthfully - once you get past a half a car length you're asking to be cut off.
No. Not really. A free market is that in which the economy is not run by a central authority. A food coop, designed, developed and run without central command, even if each of the individuals involved are socialists themselves is still part of the free market.
Karl Menger was not writing a public relations book; neither was von Mises.

use taxes != socialism. As a matter of fact Rand, Hayek, Rothbard and other proponents of free markets were also in favor of use taxes.
What's next? The government is going to tell us what to eat? Or force us to buy services or products we don't want?
So, then the definition of a free market only comes from it's detractors who come up with straw men definitions?

Yes. The free market does sort it out. A fool and his money are soon parted.

So muslims don't go to war with each other?

So. Again. What about bitcoin is a ponzi scheme?

What was the financial incentive for Deep Blue and champion chess programs?

Boxing is a chocolate sport. .

Ok. That's being silly. Bitcoins are cash. How much cash do you carry around in your wallet? Long term savings should not be kept in an exchange.
