I just received a spam titled “Work for everyone living in Australia!” There are two ways of reading that header, one funnier than the other, but I don’t think either one is exactly what they mean.
"Austro" as in Rothbard and Wittgenstein, "Athenian" as in Aristotle and smashing-the-plutocracy.
About Roderick T. Long
The Empirical Me
I’m Roderick T. Long, Professor of Philosophy at Auburn University. I’m an Aristotelean/Wittgensteinian in philosophy and a left-libertarian market anarchist in social theory. (More about me here.) This blog, Austro-Athenian Empire, is a continuation of my earlier blog, archived here.
I can think of 3 ways of reading it:
First, that you can have a job serving every Australian. An example would be a pop music star in Australia popular only with australians.
SEcond, that you can, while living in Australia, easily find a job, since there is work available for everyone there. This is what they really meant, obviously.
Third, that you can, while living in Australia, have a job serving everyone on the planet. An example might be a MOther Theresa living in Australia, but serving everyone.
Or you could have a job where you receive the population of Australia in exchange for your labor.
As an Australian I think Dennis’s interpretation is the correct one. My guess is that the job they are talking about is either the prime ministership of Australia or the US Presidency, both of which are, of course, the same thing.
