This thread is for Discussion of Capitalism, Libertarianism, Paleolibertarianism, Anarcho-Capitalism, Minarchism, and the PHYSICAL REMOVAL of COMMUNIST FAGS from our board of peace. Reminder that this is the Libertarian RIGHT General. Aleppo Johnson-fags, Left-Libertarians, and other Shit-Libs need to fuck off. Voice your complaints to r/libertarian.
The definition is valid and I don't care if you disagree. The real world does not conform to your retarded ideology. Deal with it.

No it's not valid because I gave you a fucking example that renders it absurd.
Is a bread store in Camboya a natural monopoly according to that definition of natural monopoly? Yes.
Is the idea that a bread store can be a natural monoply absurd? I doubt anyone would disagree.

In Ancapistan, what prevents a lumber company from chopping down the entire rainforest, thus depriving the entire world of oxygen?
You can't just redefine words to serve your ideology.

Robert Reyes
I said it in the first post you quoted, either by escrow:
>You put the money in the hands of the intermediary, when the house is finished, the intermediary releases the funds to the constructor.
Or by acceptance to be subject to prosecution and exposition to force, in which case you would be giving legitimacy to violence against you.
>You sign that your assets are collateral, and the arbitrator has the strength to make sure this is acceptable.
Appeal to authority is when you use arguments and someone tells you others know better.
Definitions can be wrong, that one certainly is absurd.
Hudson Morris
well, not how air and trees work, but also it's stupid to think that people smart enough to live in anarchy are also stupid enough to destroy trees
Evan Lee
>You can't just redefine words to serve your ideology.
You can't just tell me look at this definition that demonstrates a nuclear plant is a natural monopoly when this specific definition is so broad you could argue everything is a natural monopoly.
Josiah Lewis
20% of the world's oxygen comes from the Amazon rainforest, bro. That's 1 out of 5. The number gets even higher if you include the other rainforests in equation. But I wouldn't expect an ancap to understand science, or math.
Hunter Hughes
In a Minarchistan, the citizens could elect to outlaw cutting down all the trees. Minarchy is the best system, it still has a strong rule of law, but still all the personal freedoms and degeneracy that National Socialism outlaws.
If you aren't hurting anybody, you should be able to do whatever the fuck you want. Cutting down all the trees obviously hurts everyone

You didn't answer the question. If a lumber company decides to cut down all the trees, who stops them?
All of my arguments are geared specifically towards ancaps. If you're arguing from a minarchist stand-point, then I'm sorry for the confusion.

Because they decided to partake in a specific interaction that requires arbitration, and therefore they voluntarily expose themselves to his judgement.

Who decides what actions require arbitration and what actions do not require arbitration? Furthermore, arbitration isn't legally binding. I can completely ignore the results if I want to.

People. I need to do this, but I want to be safe, let's search for arbitration.
Also, private cities will most likely offer "law enforcement" packages.
>Furthermore, arbitration isn't legally binding. I can completely ignore the results if I want to.
Contracts are legally binding, yes.

For starters, if oxygen ever became scarce enough to become a saleable commodity, I'm pretty sure the ecosystem would perish before anybody had an opportunity to monetize it.

Fuck taxation though. Its theft >implying anybody will own land You'll just be renting land from one of the ten jewish land owners.

Fascism will never work for longer than 10 years and will always create a tremendous knee-jerk reaction.
You cannot give power to the state and then believe it will always use it in your interest.
Real private property and economical migration is the only way to maintain a moral society without oppression, and therefore without knee-jerk reactions or without legitimacy to dismantle it.
Owen Wright
And what if I simply refuse arbitration? You can't force me to arbitration without violating your precious NAP, so I'm safe.
Dylan Cook
Then people will refuse to interact with you. Good luck with your business!
Nolan Davis
And yet with all the crying about increases of CO2 in the atmosphere, never any mention of decreases on O2.

Libertarianism is a great system, provided everybody follows the rules. Arguing for anarchy is pretty stupid, almost as stupid as the socialists who think we can all work together for an all encompassing state.
>We all need to come together man, kumbaya, profits are evil comrade
Central planning is stupid. Minarchy Libertarian is the best system
Liam Miller
What's with the hate for Johnson in the OP ? Sure he was a weak candidate but he WAS a candidate. It's not like we are falling over the massive crowds of qualified people running as libertarians (for the LP, independent, or otherwise).

Contracts are only legally binding if there is a government to back the contract. >People Not going to happen. About as realistic as the peoples communist revolution taking place. >private cities What stops these cities from building a wall around their city, raising the rent to a ridicoulus high rate then turning them all into debt slaves, excluding the police force which will each get 2 free debt slaves for themselves.
James Mitchell
This is just an extension of the vigilantism fallacy which has been refuted many a time.
You're implying that no one has the ability to plant trees in their own private lands that would suffice the necessary level of oxygen needed for the world. >hurr durr what if everyone planted too many trees and everything started exploding
You are also implying that a firm has a monopoly on all the trees and that every private landlord decides to sell to their land to a vigilantic firm.
Extreme scenario would be >indoor hub living with regulated oxygen levels like a mall >a market for oxygen

That's your opinion. I disagree, contracts are legally binding by themselves.
>Not going to happen. About as realistic as the peoples communist revolution taking place.
People won't want safety in the interactions with others? Okay.
>What stops these cities from building a wall around their city, raising the rent to a ridicoulus high rate then turning them all into debt slaves, excluding the police force which will each get 2 free debt slaves for themselves.
Contracts :^)
Nathan Long
>You cannot give power to the state and then believe it will always use it in your interest.
Yes, the state makes mistakes sometimes. So what? An imperfect government is still better than no government at all.
You dude, people are just going to ignore the nuclear power planet that they depend on for electricity. They'll keep paying their bills, otherwise I'll cut off their power and leave them in the dark.
It actually goes hand-in-hand. Plants take CO2 and convert it into oxygen. So the rainforests actually play a huge role in the earth's eco-system by naturally filtering excess carbon out of the atmosphere. As the rainforest gets cut down smaller, and smaller, oxygen levels will decrease and carbon levels will increase.
Glad to see this thread thriving. /lrg/ master race forever. You guys make me proud when you peach the uncucked word of libertarianism.

>Fascism will never work for longer than 10 This is just factually wrong and has been proven to be wrong already through out history. >You cannot give power to the state and then believe it will always use it in your interest. You can not give power to the rich and believe they will always do things for your interests.
>Real private property and economical migration is the only way to maintain a moral society So wrong. Why do you actually believe this. Every free society to have ever existed will never maintain morality. How is paying rent and taxation any different? How can you ensure that monopolies will not oppress. How can you say that morality will be maintained when profit matters more than anything. You are a jew. Whats preventing this from happening. Why do you faggots always ignore legitimate arguments?

Ancoms have a point about the state being illegitimate but they don't respect property rights and will therefore need to be physically removed.
Ryan Campbell
they are not anarchiists
they are "anarcho"-statists
anarcho-capitalism is the true anarchy
Hudson Martinez

No, they don't. All forms of anarchism are stupid.
Josiah Rivera
How does /lrg/ feel about conquests of foreign lands?
Nicholas Anderson
Not personally an AnCap. But presumably resources ought to be preserved by granting ownership of finite resources to certain entities in order to avoid tragedy-of-the-commons scenarios. A single owner (i.e. a monarch, corporation, etc..) with exclusive rights doesn't have the same impetuous to over-exploit that masses of property-less individuals do, because each individual actor has every incentive to have their fill of the resource, to the detriment of other actors.
Benjamin Watson
How is the state legitimate then?
Nolan Brooks
PHYSICALLY REMOVE non-whites for being impure. Solution is easy.

Legitimacy is whatever common knowledge says it is. Most people are not to the stage where they think the state is illegitimate.
Jose Price
Anarchy is retarded. Look at Montreal's police strike in 1969 if you want a picture of anarchy.
There should be a police force that enforces the rules, a judicial system to uphold the law, firemen, national defense, and that's about it.
Regulations and subsidies hurt the economy, health care is dumb, roads can be privatized, public education sucks, income tax is unarguably theft.
I think USA has a great society, the government just needs to cut it's spending by a large margin. That would be my Utopian society.
Kevin Barnes
Yes glad we can agree on the solution

Ethan Adams
There is no such thing as legal in your society. Nothing is legally binding. >People won't want safety in the interactions with others? Okay. Thats exactly what they will want which is why nobody is going to risk their own neck to fight someone backed into a corner of starving to death on the street or following a contract.
Ancaps are confirmed for retarded. Your society will instantly revert back to monarchs controlling small slivers of land until one day someone will conquer it all by force because nobody can stop them or nobody would be willing to risk stopping them.
Ethan Walker
stupid is worship the state

Oh yes, legitimacy is democracy, perfect.

anarcho syndicalists think that labor unions should be in charge of everything. how is that not a bureaucratic system within itself. Give them enough time and eventually its mafia organizations threatening people for "union dues". its no wonder they are a bunch of thugs
Blake Lee
This is about me but I'm increasingly exploring the reality of full private property/anarcho-capitalism. The logical conclusions are there it's just hard to envisage that world when you are so used to one of democracy as we have.
Jaxon Howard
All of those entities can be privatized, anyone who disagrees needs to read "Machinery of Freedom."
Jordan Thompson
democracy is a fck cancer
Aaron Gray
>But presumably resources ought to be preserved by granting ownership of finite resources to certain entities in order to avoid tragedy-of-the-commons scenarios.
Okay. So you privatize the Amazon rainforest to prevent people from cutting it down. So now a single individual owns the entire Amazon rainforest? I mean, in theory, it would work, but it would require the owner to be somebody who is so utterly committed to conservation that he wouldn't sell even if offered billions of dollars.
Luke Bailey
You can't be anti-mix race in a liberal freedom loving society because the point is individualism and rights.
