Right now I think you're making an irrational choice by opposing pragmatarianism. So I'm endeavoring to share my information with you.LOL, yes, and that one element does not ensure more rational choices. So is it true or false?
If we created a market in the public sector... would you agree or disagree with the demand for defense? If you agreed with the demand for defense then it would reflect all the information that you have. If you disagreed with the demand for defense then it wouldn't reflect all the information that you have.
You demand X amount of defense. Society demands Y amount of defense. The disparity between X and Y reflects the disparity between your information and society's information. The greater the disparity between X and Y... the more incentive for you to share your information with society and learn society's information...
csbrown28: Hey Xero... you're spending way too much on defense! You should spend more tax dollars on combating global warming!
Xero: Combating global warming? Uh, I guess you didn't get the memo that Godzilla is heading our way?
csbrown28: Godzilla!?? Oh ****!?? *allocates lots of money to the DoD*
When we can choose where our money goes... we have the strongest possible incentive to be informed and share our information with others. When we can't choose where our money goes... then why bother making the effort to be informed?
