#MargaretThatcher, one of the United Kingdom's most destructive and incompetent prime ministers, was born on #ThisDayInHistory in 1925 in Grantham, Lincolnshire, #England. Her terms in office lowered British #LivingStandards, raised #poverty, and wrecked the #SocialContract.

Technology has transformed state power. The Lockean social contract must now balance stronger state capacity with individual liberty.

"The imperative for progressive politics, across Europe and beyond, is to offer a genuine alternative: a new #SocialContract that delivers radical economic turnaround through democratic, fair, and inclusive means."

What does an economy owe people when it needs less of their labor?

My new working paper looks at AI displacement, population policy, and four governance scenarios.

Not a prediction, but a question for institutions.

A country, like everything else, is only as good as its weakest link. A society isn't measured by the wealth of its 1%, but by how it protects its most vulnerable. When you strip public safety nets to fund elite insulation, the entire chain snaps.

"It is not just that the institutions of law...n which I have lost belief. The #SocialContract of Western nations, in which the government provides for the welfare of the population in return for their loyalty and taxes, appears to have broken down."

Found this on reddit 'r/Dogfree' and I agree.

Screenshot of a Reddit post in the r/Dogfree subreddit, under the "Dog Culture" flair. The title reads: "It's a crime when I do it but not when Fido does?" The post text reads:

"If I'm passing you on the sidewalk and I lunge toward you from striking distance with a raised fist, that's assault, even if I don't touch you. If a dog lunges toward me barking and snarling, it's somehow totally fine as long as it doesn't bite.

If you're walking in the park and I run up to you and deliberately put my hands or face against your body without your consent, that's battery. If a dog does it, he's just a curious good boy.

If you're out for a jog or a bike ride and I charge directly after you screaming, that's assault even if I never catch you. If a dog charges after you barking and snarling, he's just being playful.

If I deliberately shove my face into your crotch without your consent, that's battery at the least (sexual assault depends on intent). If a dog does it, no big deal, that's just what they do.

My aunt, who was actually a professional hunting dog trainer, had a great line for me: A dog has to be a citizen.

What she meant was that it was unreasonable for an owner to let their dog impose on anyone else in a way that we would not allow a human to. Obviously a dog isn't legally or morally responsible for its behavior in the way a human is. That's the owner's responsibility. But I shouldn't have to be threatened, chased, touched, jumped on, sniffed, or otherwise forced to interact with somebody else's animal because the owner has decided that behavior that would be completely unacceptable from another person is harmless when their dog does it.

I usually find human-dog comparisons gross ("fur baby" - fucking disgusting), but I appreciated the analogy."

#r4today I heard or read about a Japanese theory to solve a problem, you need to go back several steps and solve the initial step that led to the problem. The #socialcontract with the help of AI how am I doing?

“Polygamy is a luxury of the cave-people, and monogamy is an existential responsibility of the civilized society.”

Not a fan of AI? 18th Century philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau wouldn’t like AI either.
