Platt: Can the reason for MOQ support of the free market be any plainer? Andre:
Platt, if this is your answer to my questions, I must remove any benefit of doubt towards your insights and understanding of the MoQ I had. It means that you actively support the subjective egocentric religious doctrine of Protestantism and the individualistic political doctrine, grounded in Descartes, Malebranche, and Locke's conception of a person as a mental substance, and the laissez-faire economic theory formulated by Adam Smith and Jevons, which rests in turn on Locke, Hume and Bentham. In ZMM and Lila Pirsig talks about his experiences and views on the practical application of these doctrines and concludes they have led America (and not only America) to an intellectual, social, and economic rust-belt, a whole society that has given up on Dynamic improvement and is slowly trying to slip back to Victorianism, the last static ratchet-latch. Lila p 310). I will now put you among the Victorians that Pirsig talks about. Yes, they had some virtues but their biggest crime is forsaking Dynamic improvement. This given, you should stop blaming the commies and socialists (they obviously exist in your mind) and look at yourself and how your thoughts and actions perpetuate a system that degenerates everything back a latch. Dmb (and many others) was right: you seem to have a lot to lose. Just do not hide behind or take credit from the MoQ in support of your convictions. The MoQ says that you have a defect in your reasoning, a defect Mr Pirsig has been trying to expose and eradicate for the past thirty five years. I'm disappointed.
