    Do you believe in anarchy? Because if you do your delusional....

    I think it’s interesting that people believe anarchy could work for a small community, but not for a large and well-armed country like the United States. Spain tried to have an anarchic society, but CNT-FAI was actually just a government that refused to call itself a government; and such a small...

    Do you believe in anarchy? Because if you do your delusional....

    I don’t think anyone expects it to happen anytime soon, but since it is obviously the most ideal society, why not work towards it rather than away from it? It would be a much better transition if we all make an effort to bring it about. It seems like everyone just assumes it’s impossible, so...

    Do you believe in anarchy? Because if you do your delusional....

    I believe in anarchy. Someone could not establish a government unless they have enough people who agree with their form of government. So far in the United States, we haven’t experienced a zombie apocalypse or any sort of overbearing danger that might have people begging for protection, so a...

    Government: An Unnecessary Evil

    I call this system laissez faire because that’s what it is, but it’s more than that because it does care if the government stays centralized. It cares because it calls to abolish the government. I have also offered several critiques of anarcho-capitalism, so that’s not what I’m proposing either...

    Government: An Unnecessary Evil

    I think unions would work a lot better without government interference (especially in schools), but I tend to trust a free market over unionization. Under my proposed system, if a group of workers have a problem with their boss, they can start the exact same company right next door and steal all...

    Government: An Unnecessary Evil

    I don’t think your analogy applies. Just as there are many denominations that claim to be christian and believe whatever bible they choose, there seems to be many denominations for anarchy. We all believe in the abolishment of the state, and we all agree that capitalist are usually as evil as...

    Government: An Unnecessary Evil

    Thanks for introducing me to Georgism. I like it, but I’m having difficulty understanding how “land rent” would be enforced, and particularly who would enforce it and decide where wealth should be redistributed. I’m sorry that I don’t have much time to talk today, but I wanted to mention that...

    Government: An Unnecessary Evil

    Yes, I do believe in God. In my laissez faire system, why is it impossible for us to be the guards who guard the guards? We could even hire trained guards to guard us against other guards, or start our own guard company to guard entire communities. Some may even volunteer to guard. And if...

    Government: An Unnecessary Evil

    I’m having trouble understanding how this does not support my idea. Who will have power over those in power? It seems that this question could be asked ad infinitum. The only acceptable answer has to be an entity that is incorruptible and perfect- though people disagree about who or what this...

    Government: An Unnecessary Evil

    I believe most people, despite their religious affiliation, have very little trouble following the commandments that deal specifically with how we should treat each other. That’s not to say that most people are able to live as perfectly as Yeshua lived, but as far as murder and theft- I don’t...

    Government: An Unnecessary Evil

    Thanks for the referral to the “noble savage”. I believe in all sorts of things that are unorthodox, and this noble savage thing seems to be something I’ve always believed- but I didn’t know it had a name. I stopped believing man is “inherently evil” a long time ago. That’s not to say mankind...

    Government: An Unnecessary Evil

    Why would the Sinaloa Cartel want to know the government has been lying about drugs? So these criminals can finally legitimize their business and open up a mom and pop fentanyl store? The reason drugs are big business for cartels is because the industry is extremely risky and in high demand. The...

    Government: An Unnecessary Evil

    From Scientific American: Nixon aid John Ehrlichman told journalist Dan Baum in 1994, according to an article published in Harper’s Magazine in 2016. “The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I’m...

    Government: An Unnecessary Evil

    Why do you think there will be turf wars? Someone could literally sell heroin with a Starbucks coffee- though I wouldn’t expect such a business to stay open for long since there will be much cheaper and less harmful opiates available. Unfortunately, in our present system, a few select...
