I decided to avoid the 'Economics' thread to give dmb the opportunity to
actually participate in a discussion on the topic. That is if he isn't many
miles away hiding amongst the zebra.
Ron replied to Lucy:
Because you are just known for your iron clad reasoning and keen sense of
philosophical clarity as well as your vastly superior use of rhetorical prose.
Dave just has to be shakin in his bootz. ...same ole crap, really, do you
blame the guy?
dmb says:
I'm not hiding from anything and honestly have no idea what Marsha is talking
about. I made a point specifically aimed against Jan's claim and I'd be happy
to discuss it further but nobody seems to understand the point. So I let it go.
This saddens me but there is nothing about this that would make anyone afraid
of anything. (Except for the fear of wasting time, perhaps.)
To suggest that I'm hiding from something is just more meaningless posturing.
Summary of the "economics" thread:
Jan Anders Andersson said:
"Economics is not about values" and "Economics is a way to AVOID values".
dmb replied:
According to the MOQ, fame and fortune are social level values. According to
the MOQ, our recent history is a clash of values, namely social level values as
opposed to intellectual values.
Jan's big comeback:
...Therefore: Economics without value is nothing.
dmb says:
Apparently, Jan just doesn't care to be consistent and he doesn't care what
Pirsig actually says about economics either. What would be the point in
continuing such a conversation? Since there has been zero comprehension of the
only point made, I really don't see any reason to bother.
