election 2008 - Will it happen?

2008-10-11T08:08:59Z

November 4, 2008, election time. Will it happen? I heard a rumor that
there might be a big emergency requiring canceling the election. Of
course the emergency would be engineered on purpose in order to have
an excuse to cancel the election.

I don't know what he means by "a revelation of reality" but if you put
Peikoff's testicles in a vise he would take pain seriously and grant
it metaphysical significance.

A Revelation

2008-10-11T04:27:35Z

"Like any conscious creature, a man on the benevolent-universe
premise is well acquainted with pain. His insignia, however, is his
refusal to take pain seriously, his refusal to grant it metaphysical
significance. To him, pleasure is a revelation of reality - the
reality where life is possible." Peikoff, OPAR, 342.

Re: Credit be damned.

In any case, you are ignoring the fact that the use of money
makes
barter unnecessary, and need not involve any form of debt or
credit.
Can Money really be so easily divorced from credit as your
foregoing asserts? To the extent that a promise to exchange
goods and services, money itself, is a form of "credit", no?
