Today I heard a politician on the radio. He said he moved from being a clerk under justice Kirby who studied law, to an economics professor, because he thoughts the economic system of incentives was more powerful than the legal system of rights. I thought this was very interesting, and related the tension between democracy and capitalism.

That's probably not what a lot of mainstream libertarians want to hear. People don't want to hear that, but it's the god damned truth. Or it's just a clever soundbite. I'm a sucker for people that sound like real world versions of clickbait, like buzzfeed. At least when I replicate it for myself, it makes it easier to accept conscious positive self talk.

Note, I don't actually know if what he says is true. I simply like things for which identifying the problem space is too difficult to search, yet someone has a stance anyway. Those people know now to let their problem space search grow faster than their solution space search.
