Yes, I think that too.
On the practical side, I think that investing in AGI requires
significant tax cuts, and we should elect a candidate that would do that
(Ron Paul). I think that the government has to have more respect to
potential weapons (like AGI), so we should elect a candidate who is
strongly pro-gun (Ron Paul). I think that the government has to trust
and respect the privacy of its people, so your would not be forced to
sell your AGI to the military. No more wiretapping (abolish the Patriot
Act) so the government won't hear an AGI being successfully developed.
Abolish the Federal Reserve, so no more malinvestment, and more
productive investment (including agi investment). Ron Paul will do all
of that.

I also agree except ... I think political and economic theories can inform AGI design,
particularly in areas of AGI decision making and friendliness/roboethics. I wasn't
familiar with the theory of Comparative Advantage until Josh and Eric brought it up.
(Josh discusses in conjunction with friendly AIs in his "The Age of Virtuous
Machines" at Kurzweil's site.) I like to see discussions in these contexts.

Am I the only one, or does anyone else agree that politics/political
theorising is not appropriate on the AGI list?
Agreed. There are many other forums where political ideology can be debated.
