•The brain -- and the extent to which it can be trained -- is the topic
at tonight’s Empiricist League (doors 7:30, lectures 8) if you care to join
me at 594 Union Ave. in Williamsburg.
•Someone should study the effects on the brain of this ten-minute loop of
Toronto mayor Rob Ford dancing to “Butterfly” (h/t Carl Oberg).
•Misguided liberal-tarians try to turn defeat into victory
by redefining libertarianism downward. Rand
Paul is changing the world instead of changing libertarianism, selling
social conservatives on the message of liberty (h/t Corie Whalen), one of
the most important possible transformations in a nation where the largest ideological
bloc is socially conservative/fiscally conservative voters.
As I have long bet, I think it’s going to prove far harder
to teach the left economics than to teach the right tolerance.
