I second this, as it's a broader issue here and in other threads.
For example, there is no such thing as "real wealth." It's a metaphysical construct that ace constantly refers to in defense of experimental economics.
ace's views on economics are theoretical and are often in conflict with provable and commonly accepted knowledge.
It would explain why he rejects mixed economies in favour of communism and borderline anarchy, or a plutarchy.
I take his ideas as seriously as I take others of such extremity. You know, ideas such as "property is theft" and "taxes are theft."
I don't know how we get from "a small group of rich Germans want a temporary wealth tax to help weather the recession" to "Germany should radicalize their economy and subsequently their society."
