Ok, I found Hanson’s view on “sex redistribution” in his blog http://www.overcomingbias.com/2018/04/two-types-of-envy.html

Mad world: It is ok for the US president to pay prostitutes, restrict sex-redistributing websites and it is ok for the first lady to sell body. What is not ok is to advocate more liberal sex policies for scientists.

If that's all you know him by you should definitely read his actual blog and work, since he's super interesting and actually a really wonderful person.

i'm not sure what you are talking about. You should try to google him. I like his views about the future and it is good to talk about futarchy now as topic starter mentioned TurboVote
