9th Amendment, US Constitution, ratified 1789:

>The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.


Good luck defending those pretend rights in court. It can be difficult enough for the clearly-enumerated ones.

>“My grandmother saved seeds, and today the court has said I can do the same for my grandchildren without fear of the police or of prison,” he said.

Unconscionable to support such a law IMO.


Read "confessions of an economic hitman", you'll get the gist

bravo, this is a great use of talent for society


Wrong - sorry. The reason is that politically the US public is very skillfully managed from above via divide and conquer strategies and beaureaucratic techniques (i.e. identity politics, gerrymandering voting districts). The public polling is very clear about US citizen preferences, but US Govt policy is rarely aligned that way.


No, it's not clear at all: it's been tested in actual referenda and failed. What's actually happening is people don't intuitively grok the distinction between opinion polling, where questions are asked in the abstract (and often in the best light preferred by the org sponsoring the poll) versus actual voting, where the questions are very specific and include details like "your taxes will increase by X%" or "you will lose access to your current insurance plan".

And yet only one is unacceptable for humans reviewing their own expenditures.


I think the lack of friction AI has is a real problem.

AI models output is always overly confident. And when you correct them they will almost always come up with something like "Ah, you're totally right" and switch around the output (unless there are safeguards / deep research involved).

AI doesn't push back, therefore you more often than not don't second guess your own thoughts. This is, in essence, the most valuable tool in discussions with other humans.


I also dont trust an LLM with my finances. At least not for now
