that shit would be wild as hell

technically heinleining is already talebian. you had to stake your personal safety to become a veteran before you get voting power. so its actually eerily compatible 
Similar to the dystopian government in Starship Troopers
@Pat you know the producer of the film never read the book right 
Neither did I (I think). I read some heinlein a long time ago. Which book was it?
@Pat "starship troopers" 
Neither did I. In fact, I forgot that the film was based on one Heinlein's novels when I posted my toot here.
When you say "heinlein-taleb", what are you referring to?
@Pat nassim nicholas taleb wrote a series of books talking about people's general inability or lack of education in handling randomness, tendency to punt risk, making policies without skin in the game (ex. a banker that can loan money to students and is fully protected from default risk)
