I like sub commanders. They don't have time for bullshit. And neither do I.

Son, your mother says I have to hang you. Personally I don't think this is a capital offense. But if I don't hang you, she's gonna hang me and frankly, I'm not the one in trouble. —cthia's father. Incident in ? Axiom of Common Sense |

Lewis also authored three SF novels - well worth reading - and quite a few books which tend to encourage thinking. Of course, thinking can be dangerous - sometimes it results in adopting unpopular opinions ![]() Wuss University ![]()

Note the primary difference between an extractive economy and an inclusive one is that the first considers today, and the second considers the long term. Hunter-gatherer is less work at first - until the local game and harvestables are used up. This is why a well handled garden, farm, ranch, and such are how we mostly do things today. We do extra work to make sure replacements are produced.
Many people find it easier to practice the extreme than to test whether their world view might not turn out to be correct ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by DDHvi on Mon Feb 08, 2016 8:16 am, edited 1 time in total.
