It\u2019s about <strong>the person who shaped me the most<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">The person who shaped me the most (or second most) is <\/span><b>my father<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">He wants me to learn <\/span><b>economics<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">, do <\/span><b>RPC<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">, <\/span><b>four square writing method<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> and other similar things. My dad believes in free market economics or otherwise called <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/worldsubjects.wordpress.com\/category\/economics\/\"><b>Austrian economics<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> and in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/worldsubjects.wordpress.com\/2017\/01\/30\/justice\/\"><b>Justice<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">He taught me into believe in these things and believe in them I do. Justice teaches that <\/span><b>common law<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> is better than <\/span><b>political law<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">Common law is a type of government system where the government is not allowed to make very much laws regulations. Common law is based on the<\/span><b> two laws that make civilization possible<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">: <\/span><b>Do all you have agreed to do<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> and <\/span><b>Do not encroach on other people or their property<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">. Common law allowed early America flourish with prosperity, but in the 20th century America turned to political law and started making new laws, like crazy. Today there are very few or zero countries in the world that still use common law.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">There are a few types of economics the one I will talk about is <\/span><b>Austrian economics<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">Austrian economics teaches similar things to Common law, except it has more to do with economics (obviously). It teaches that the <\/span><b>free market should handle the market<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> and the <\/span><b>government shouldn\u2019t mess with it<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">. Alas, the government has intervened and does stuff, \u00a0like <\/span><b>saving failing businesses from bankruptcy<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">, giving some businesses a <\/span><b>monopoly over a industry <\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">and<\/span><b> making new regulations so it\u2019s harder for new businesses to start up<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">You might be thinking: The government saving failing businesses is a good thing! This is not a good thing! These businesses are using scarce resources and <\/span><b>destroying value<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">. If the market, likes the product or service the business is creating they <\/span><b>shall buy their products<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> or services and the business will get more money to improve their product or service, <\/span><b>for creating value<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">If the market doesn\u2019t like the product or service the business will lose money <\/span><b>for destroying value<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">. If the business does this too much they will go bankrupt and the scarce resources they used will be used for <\/span><b>more valuable products or services<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">. If the government intervenes in this process \u00a0the the business will still be destroying value and using scarce resources.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">The point I\u2019m trying to make is that governments are bad for the economy and <\/span><b>shouldn\u2019t<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> intervene in almost anything.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">The other thing my dad taught me is the <\/span><b>four square writing method<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The four square writing method makes making organized and structured blog post easier<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">. I have made some of my blog post with this method. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">My dad tells me that creativity is one of the things AI can\u2019t do (not yet). So i should write down all the <\/span><b>ideas that pop in my head<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">. They don\u2019t need to be <\/span><b>good ideas they could be bad ideas even<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">! Later maybe one of those things will create a business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">These are only a few things my dad has <\/span><b>taught me and there are so many more<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">, but that would make this blog post so much longer so I\u2019ll just keep it here.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">By the way the things I covered in this blog post are not explained in the best way. I would recommend you read these books about Justice and Economics. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Whatever-Happened-Justice-Uncle-Eric\/dp\/0942617460\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">Whatever happened to Justice?<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Whatever-Happened-Explanation-Economics-Investments\/dp\/0942617649\/ref=pd_sim_14_2?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;refRID=TADE7C3RP3XG2M9STD70\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">Whatever happened to Penny Candy?<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the essay for the 3rd week of the 7th Grade\u00a0Ron Paul Curriculum.
