Note:IL TRIBUNO

Yellow highlight | Page: 36
Under pirates’ system of divided power, crew members democratically elected both captains and quartermasters. Indeed, pirates often elected quartermasters to replace deposed captains. After Charles Vane’s crew removed him from command, for instance, it elected its quartermaster to captain in his place.

Because they were absentee owners, merchant shipowners confronted what economists call a “principal-agent problem” with respect to the crews they hired.
Note:IL PROBLEMA DEI MERCANTILI

Yellow highlight | Page: 38
Opportunism included negligence in caring for the ship, carelessness that damaged cargo, liberality with provisions, embezzlement of freight or advances required to finance the vessel’s voyage, and outright theft of the vessel itself.
Note:Ccccccccc

Yellow highlight | Page: 38
Centralizing power in a captain’s hands to direct sailors’ tasks, control the distribution of victuals and payment, and discipline and punish crew members allowed merchant shipowners to minimize sailor opportunism.
Note:IL RIMEDIO...UN BUON MANAGER

Yellow highlight | Page: 39
To align their interests with their captain’s interests, owners used two devices. First, they hired captains who held small shares in the vessels

PRIMO INCENTIVO

Yellow highlight | Page: 39
Second, whenever possible, absentee owners appointed captains with familial connections to one of the members of their group.
Note:SECONDO INCENTIVO

Yellow highlight | Page: 39
Reducing the captain’s power over victuals, payments, labor assignment, or discipline, and vesting it in some other sailor’s hands instead, would reduce the captain’s power to make sailors behave in the absentee owners’ interest.
Note:RAGIONI AUTOCRAZIA

Yellow highlight | Page: 40
while merchant ship autocracy overcame the principal-agent problem absentee owners confronted with respect to their crews, in doing so it created potential for a different kind of problem we’ve already examined: captain predation.
Note:PROBLEMA COLLATERALE DEI MERCANTILI

Yellow highlight | Page: 40
Predatory captains who abused their authority created the miserable situations for sailors discussed in chapter 1. Some of these captains, such as the sadistic Captain Norman, were bad people.

pirates jointly owned and operated their ship themselves. As historian Patrick Pringle described it, in this sense a pirate ship was like a “sea-going stock company.”
Note:AZIONISTI A BORDO

Yellow highlight | Page: 42
In short, because pirates stole their ships they could organize their polity democratically.
Note:IN BREVE

Yellow highlight | Page: 42
Merchant sailors, recall from chapter 1, could at least appeal to government to prevent captain predation. As we already saw, in some cases such appeal was useless. But many other times it was effective. Pirates, in contrast, couldn’t appeal to government to protect them from tyrannical captains
Note:RICORERE AL GOVERNO

pirate democracy didn’t emerge out of pirates’ adherence to romantic democratic ideals about man’s right to have a say in who governs him. It emerged out of pirate profit seeking à la the “invisible hook.”

MALEDETTO MCDONALD’S

Il nostro nemico sono le coincidenze e per dissolverle ci inventiamo storie.

Ad ogni disastro imprevisto entriamo in crisi, tutto ci spinge a vederci dietro un piano, una persona, un’intenzione. Iniziamo a cercare qualcuno da incolpare.

La preghiera serve a sconfiggere questo demone potentissimo.

La persona generosa e razionale, invece di donare denaro in beneficenza, lo investie in banca a interesse composto, quindi lo dona in beneficenza il più tardi possibile (appena prima di morire, e possibilmente anche dopo affidandolo ad un trust). L'interesse è più alto della crescita PIL e i poveri saranno sempre con te.

Allo stesso modo, il politico razionale che crede di poter beneficiare davvero gli ultimi redistribuendo risorse con la tassazione, la rinvierà il più possibile: oggi esenzione totale per il big business e tassazione pesante tra un secolo. Le grandi imprese sanno come investire in modo fruttuoso i loro soldi: se semini bene oggi, il tuo raccolto di tassatore sarà abbondante domani. I poveri, tanto, saranno sempre con te, non devi avere fretta e cadere nellatentazione narcisistica di esibire qui ed ora la tua generosità.

INDIGNATI A 2 EURO LA SCENATA

INDIGNATI A 2 EURO LA SCENATA

Il mercato è ovunque, ogni cosa ha un prezzo. Lo spiega bene il concetto di cui al link.

Il treno che ti porta al lavoro ritarda di 20 minuti e tu ti incazzi. Quanto faresti pagare per aggiungere 20 minuti al tragitto che ti porta allavoro? E' inutile che ti incazzi con la hostess, che sconto ti basta per viaggiare in aereo separato da tua moglie? Qualcuno ti passa davanti in fila al supemercato e tu dai in escandescenze, ma quanto pagheresti per fare 2 minuti in meno di coda? Il latte in frigo va a male e tu diventi una bestia. Ma quanto costa un litro di latte fresco? Devi cambiare l'olio dell'auto e la cosa ti scoccia tremendamente, ma quanto dài al benzinaio che lo fa per te? Le continue pubblicità ti pesano e sei un lamento continuo? Bene, quanto costa la versione premium? La lettura del giornale ti indigna e non ti trattieni? Quanto pagheresti per evitare di essere oltraggiato da simili notizie?

Non posso dirvi quante volte ho visto persone fare scenate epiche per problemi che,visti nella logica WTP, non superavano i 2 euro. Ma dirò di più, sono convinto che molti pagherebbero pur di esibire laloro indignazione almeno una volta al giorno.

Certo, chi ragionare in termini di WTP va incontro alla solita lamentela: monetizzare tutto è disumano, monetizzare tutto crea conflitto. Personalmente non posso fare a meno di notare una vasta gamma di "rabbie", una volta monetizzate, diventano così ridicole da essere più facili da superare.
