coderman: see also "rational anarchy" which makes similar assumptions about social decision making processes in homo sapiens

eeeeeee: even i can't believe the efficient market hypothesis is economic orthodoxy
coderman: decentralization summaries my druthers; decentralize government and decentralize markets.
coderman: but our existing centralized systems and capitalist markets promoting greed as virtue have kind of poisened the potential for the requisite personal responsibility and virtue ethics required for significantly decentralized systems to function

coderman: i have a formal proof that shows cooperative, fully decentralized markets and governments are closer to a global optima while centralized, confrontational/competitive systems are mired in local maxima
coderman: but alas it is too long to fit into the margin of this chump
pleung: "In God We Trust", in general peope're good and rational
