Ramblings of a somewhat libertarian stock market speculator

Futarchy Mailing List

I just got around to checking out a mailing list devoted to Futarchy. It looks interesting enough that I expect to post a number of messages to it over the next few weeks. But I have some concerns that is focused too much on problems associated with the final stages on the path to a pure Futarchy rather than on what I see as the more valuable goal of implementing an impure system that involves voters relying heavily on market predictions (which I see as a necessary step to take before people will seriously consider pure Futarchy).
I’m in the process of writing comments on the book Predictocracy, probably too many for one post, and I expect I’ll post some of them only on the futarchy_discuss list.
