Europe is one of the continents. I haven't updated my website in some time, and really should do. I am aware of my own attention span, it is short. I could write a website like Mr Wiseman's, but I wouldn't enjoy reading it myself, so I am sure not many other people would either. Unfortunately, it is this kind of thing that is taken advantage of by many politicians.
Most people switch off at talk of things like majoritarian practicality.
It all seems very simple to me. You have to start by seeing events as things that are caused by incentives. A person will only do a thing if there is a good reason to do it. This is a well known way of thinking that is often used to explain the 'free market'. I see it as virtually spiritual, in the same way as Native Americans believe in working with the land, rather than fighting against it.
