my offer stands: ill do it for free.

You'll get 5% as a proof reader, reducing my share to 25%.

I hope not, but I'm more sceptical.  I feel that we will lose value dramatically if we have too many people investing because of the value and strength of bitcoin.

The investment could be followed by new business entries, or not.

Also, I am a freelancer. Been busy looking for work in this small economy.

Specialized research rarely ever achieves the desired result. We shouldn't put faith in frivolous miracles that may come from these causes. Results are produced by stringent purpose and through actually knowing that results WILL be actually achieved. Invest your dollar in businesses that will achieve genuine innovation.

Audrey de Grey propose anti-aging approach based on engineering approach rather than trying to interfere with complicated and essential metabolic process.

Bell labs was part of Ma Bell.

A massive state-subsidized monopoly.

 Roll Eyes

Date and period when it was a state-subsidized monopoly?

If we're supposed to sign a social contract? Where is the document?

Is our "citizenship" and "passport" a social contract? Is the constitution a social contract?

Cryonics is your best bet at the moment. I am certainly signing myself up. They accept donations but a life insurance plan can cover your body treatment alone.
On the other hand, I think donating to a few charity that took different approach is a good idea.

Research without incentive nor efficiency isn't going to achieve much of all anyways. Unless -- like in the case of the Soviet Union -- it is fueled by nationalism and imperialistic goals in mind.

I want to end aging but most people are like pro-aging.  Undecided

Death is evil and we should work hard to eliminate it.

Right now I am trying to earn a living so that I can donate 10% of my earning every month to the most efficient charity dedicated to anti-aging I can find.

A lot of people will says "How are artists/writers/programmers make money?"

I just published the first entirely public domain bitcoin magazine in the entire bitcoin economy. I hope it will continue like that. I just need to fix my crappy writing and it will the best magazine in the land.  Smiley

Unfortunately, it failed. Roads are not public goods

They are.


Roads are not non-rivalorous. More people on the road, the more congestion there are.

research certainly can be funded with private dollars

Donating to medical foundation, cancer society, etc.

This has not been shown. This is repeatedly conjectured (no evidence) by the fine people at mises.org. Also, companies don't actually like competition, which is why they spend so much time and money trying to distort markets. So the conditions for which foster this fabled competition don't even exist. They definitely won't exist if it is up to them. So this argument, which is critical for everything else that supposedly follows, falls pathetically flat.
.

Competition is the best weapon for combating abuses by private powers. Look at the cellular industry. Google dragged cellular network providers kicking and screaming to providing better plans to android users. It's not impossible to bring competition in this skewed environment as google have shown.

It will be a lot easier to introduce competition in an environment where corporations will borne the cost of warring by themselves and where privilege and monopoly are not as widespread.

This is how agorists(I am NOT one because I am a chicken) combat abuses, by counter-economic revolutionary activities.

Public goods are non-rivalrous but roads get traffic congestion as they're used up

I need to be able to write well without needing proof readers and such. Since this cannot be fixed quickly, I'll have to employ proof readers in the meantime.

A proposal: rename the marketplace to Agora.

Sometime the only logical conclusion is this whole copying is theft is a bunch of nonsense.

Countries can deny or allow entry, or requires certain regulation to be followed in the country. So it's not like you can just move between countries.

There's only 200 nations in the world for six billion human beings.
