Economic Land in Space

economic land in space

I'm going to tell you about how land on the earth, is identical economically, to land in space.

Each kind commands a rental value for identical reasons.

Likewise both equally command a selling price - by capitalising the rental value. Curiously making something that's impossible to sell, sellable.

These factors definitely persist as we move out to explore and colonise space.

All the great social problems will follow us into space if we do not solve the same root causes on the earth. Because of this single foundation.

Yes, if we solve this biggest of all economic mistakes, there will still be other problems of course. But now with the biggest one attended to, the rest will now be that much each to resolve.

Why wouldn't they be? Space is not infinite economically. It is only 'unbounded'. That is to say, there are still limits, economically, in space.

The foundational limit is that valuable land is limited in quantity. Even in space. Look at it directly in front of your face - how much would you pay for a thousand cubic miles worth of space land out there in the Oort Cloud, compared to that in orbit around the earth?

Sure, as we succeed in colonisation the margin will soon move out from orbit to the lower quality unbounded space land. Thus reinforcing my point that much more intensely. As production of wealth booms, all the gains will go into the rental value of land on these new margins.

So if you truly want to be wealthy and secure your 'household' for your descendants, you must get land. On the earth or in space it matters little. Wherever is the most valuable plot you can afford - get land!

Even the most intelligent and wealthiest people on earth do not understand this yet. You are way ahead of them just by reading this.

But should those we select as leaders wait until the colonies have formed in space before it is placed under proper scrutiny?

A Dialogue on the UK's Accession to the United States (UKEXIT)

A Dialogue on the UK's Accession to the United States Executive Summary This initiative seeks to foster a formal dialogue regarding the potential accession of the countries of the United Kingdom , to the United States , as individual states.  Being English the main focus is for the country of England to accede. The original intent was to ask the government to lead on it through a petition leading to the question coming before the House of Commons. This was crushed out of hand by the committee leading petitions, which was not a surprise.  Simply put, this petition is asking the government to start a conversation about the benefits of leaving the UK and joining the United States. Let us call the initiative UKEXIT (yukezit) The objective is to evaluate the benefits to citizens and stakeholders, encouraging a constructive discourse on the political, economic, and social implications of such a union. If Wales , Northern Ireland , Scotland , or  England were to leave the Unit...

The 450 Volt Truth: From Orwell to Obedience

A Complete Thread on Dystopia, Milgram, and Breaking the Agentic State - Why People Act Irrationally and Often Violently When a Tribal Social Structure and Its Hierarchy Are Brought Under Serious Scrutiny This is a tricky topic. Please read the Obedience Glossary of Terms before proceeding Executive Summary This piece was written from a long conversation with Grok. I had to interrogate the AI quite a bit. And was astonished at how it produced such intelligence. I've included the most pertinent parts. Do not be fooled into thinking this is just another Orwell analysis. That is just setting the scene well. For what comes later on the agentic state and how power uses it to control the masses.  It may not have all the answers. It might wrong. A lot of it is very hard to believe is happening. But it still seems to fit the bizarre world of system wide dissonance we all live and partake in today, better than all the alternatives. So deserves your continued attention. By all means make yo...

Government & Tax Death Toll

I'm going to show you how government and taxation causes more excess death than any other factor, even global wars and pandemics. It is and always has been the biggest genocide of all. And its deliberate. Government doesn’t just fail to save lives — it takes them, at scale.  2–6 million globally 200K–400K in the U.S. 50K–80K in the UK Every year. Every tax. Every regulation. Cumulatively since 1970 government and tax killed between 160 and 300 million people across the globe  More than all 20th century wars and genocides combined (260M) In the U.S. ten times more than all U.S. combat deaths in history (10 * 1.2M) In the UK equivalent to 1 in 15 of all deaths And the nations with more regulations and a higher tax to GDP ratio such as the UK and US, tend to kill more of their own citizens per capita. The poorest nations have a better record than the richest. All this excess death is rooted in the institutions of taxation - the theft of private property, by force, against your fr...
