@JT_ZLC @CubicleWarrior_ At the end, Friedman got closer and closer to Hayek, at least in terms of policy prescription. That is why they were big together in the Pelerin Society. — PolitiTweet.org

@JT_ZLC @CubicleWarrior_ Thanks. Friedman was an antagonist of socialism. However, as a young man working for USG he designed the system of tax withholding, and as a monetarist he did envision government mandarins "managing" the economy. But he grew to favor very simple management (e.g. "Taylor Rule"). — PolitiTweet.org

@mg0314a @CubicleWarrior_ But the argument that it has been used by Breitbart, Trump, and Alex Jones and therefore must be avoided escapes me. Hypothetically, if they referred someday to "the law of supply and demand", does that mean we must renounce economics? — PolitiTweet.org

@mg0314a @CubicleWarrior_ Props for knowing that about Turkey: Attaturk left it to thwart Islamofascism and leave room for a tolerant Turkey (in which Islam could play an appropriate role). It worked until Erdogan. Good for you to know its origin (or did I say that somewhere?) But in USA its bad. — PolitiTweet.org

@CubicleWarrior_ Clue me in: When people react as you have to a phrase like "deep state", is it because you are suggesting or under the impression there is not one? Just trying to understand... — PolitiTweet.org

@JohnSmi52089988 @LogicReason11 @STOCKMASTER2000 @pizzama21811215 My experience is: No. The game is rigged, the House owns the police department. The OSTK dividend was the royal flush. The SEC Bazoomba'd https://t.co/mHMlBrUalQ — PolitiTweet.org

@LogicReason11 @STOCKMASTER2000 @pizzama21811215 Oh, sale was decided the day I left the firm (August 22). Plenty o' witnesses to that one. Then I went to Asia and went hands-off. No info to/from firm, no MNPI. You guys wanted me to be just a shareholder? Shareholders don't tell shareholders when they can buy and sell. — PolitiTweet.org

@ContrarianShort You guys wanted me out of firm, right? Just a shareholder? Shareholders don't tell shareholders when they can buy and sell. — PolitiTweet.org

@SIRNOTTING @SEC_Enforcement @JJohnsonNow I sure as hell did NOT know. When I left I would have put the odds at 100% the dividend would go. Monday texts from a WS insider saying primes were spreading news SEC lackeys would Bazoomba + Bloomberg article told me the public was being chummed. https://t.co/mHMlBrUalQ — PolitiTweet.org

@mayflowercp Yes. "engineering a short squeeze" by inventing a dividend crooks could game? How unpatriotic. Or maybe supporters of a system where trades do not really settle are the traitors. https://t.co/mHMlBsbLdo — PolitiTweet.org
Patrick Byrne @PatrickByrne
@STOCKMASTER2000 @pizzama21811215 "DIDNT FIT INTO THE WAY STOCKS ARE DESIGNED TO WORK" Yes, in that in tZERO's market crooks cannot manipulate prices, but stocks (currently) are designed to work in a system they can. Hence, the crooks' lapdog SEC had to stop it. — PolitiTweet.org
Patrick Byrne @PatrickByrne
@STOCKMASTER2000 @pizzama21811215 The fact that the SEC had to stop the dividend would have ended the debate once and for all. OSTK has 37 million shres. They created 3.7 million tokens and did a 10:1 dividend. The National Market System choked on it. Debate over. #settlethetrades — PolitiTweet.org

@EddieD92190900 @Joeschmo3311 @Jim_Malmstrom @HiddenPivots @SEC_Enforcement I am floating in a sea 10,000 miles away. I have no info about the decision they made. I learned of it when you did. I would have gone forward and told the SEC "Come after me so I can put YOU on trial." My GUESS (from knowing the personalities) is JJ did but the board flinched. — PolitiTweet.org

@Joeschmo3311 @passeri_mazie Well I am not at Overstock anymore, and extremely limited contact. But, if I were still there, my answer would be, "HELL no! We are making 3.7 million tokens for 37 million shares. That is it." You know, maybe the people who need tokens can go ask to buy them from Overstock. — PolitiTweet.org
