I see your points, I'd have to think about it.
The biased courts will be priced out of the market from not providing enough value compared to their operational costs. Its an iterative process just like any industry,
This form of Political Structuring allows for all sorts of societies, it just means that you don't have to live in a society where you disagree with the laws.
Want to be in Socialistic Commune? Buy some land and have at it! Want to have a monarchy that doesn't acknowledge or respect Private Property? Get some land and have at it.
I'm saying total anarchism, though I firmly believe a Capitalistic society will thrive and outperform the other social/economic structures. The Capitalistic societies will not trade with those that coerce their citizens.

If accused of a Private Property law violation of the jurisdiction, you'd be tried in a court that is mutually agreed upon.
The jurisdiction will have multiple trusted courts at various levels depending on the market demands.

Seems like the Political game is a dialectic to concentrate more power into one entity over time.

See, this is a conceptual hangup that the criticism doesn't understand. Neighbors will be incentivized to collaborate with one another, it'll be more efficient for a security force to service a neighborhood than individual homes.
Private Court systems will have accountability for unjust practices by having competition.
If someone gets murdered for their property, there is still civil and criminal law. The murderer doesn't just own it by being present on the property. AnCap/Libertarians are not for no government, its for voluntary governance.
People practice a limited form of voluntary governance by moving between countries/states/cities. To think that a purely Private Property oriented society would be Chaos and unforgiving is a naïve strawman.

After looking up the phrase, I understand that I'm being a bit literal with my reference to the phenomenon. "Bread and Circuses" are generally bad, especially when not addressing legitimate issues.

- reply

I'm not saying global economic conditions are on the up-and-up at the moment.
Just staying the dynamic works the same regardless of the trajectory. "Bread and Circuses" is something that happens in societies that are actually prospering as well, its just called luxuries and entertainment.

2023-10-17 18:14:07

- reply

Taxes don't pay for the system, deficit spending and fractional reserve banking pays for it. Taxes are a reminder of who has leverage over the citizens.
Law Enforcement, Jails, and Court Systems are the monopolization of Justice procurement.
There are no free-riders with a private property oriented society. Welfare spending and Political Entrepreneurship is the definition of free-riding, which is the status quo at the moment.

I oversimplified, though conflicts are not resolved purely on who has the greater firepower capabilities.
Whatever arguments that can be made for an industry to have free market activity, they can be carried over to national security as well. No reason for any industry to be centralized, especially that of violence production.

Having a Generalist foundation has resonated with me for the better part of two decades. Something felt wrong about specializing too early in life, especially in a world that is getting more uncertain by the day.
It was difficult to put into words when I first felt that resistance to specialize. Communicating that feeling is much easier now that I have a better understanding of the economic world.
This book "Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World" seems promising, looking forward to reading it.

Complaints about Bread and Circuses are warranted. Though the concept works the same when on the up-and-up.
Improving living conditions and reducing discontent is done by improving economic conditions. Hard to stir up political discontent when more products/services become available at lower prices.

A Nationalized defense force, along with other centralized entities, will naturally expand through "Mission Creep". Even if they're there solely for border protection, then its trade security, then its protecting business, on and on. That is historically the case
Security firms can specialize in border protection/management. Free markets and time will separate the Wheat from the Chaff.

Yeah, thats one of the rhetorical problems liberty minded people have an issue with when communicating the philosophy.

I know there have been Theocracies and Christian Monarchs but they inherently go against the wishes of their faith. The power concentration had corrupted their decision making, which requires a decentralization of power. If I wanted a Christian Theocracy, all I need is to look at the Ottoman Empire.
Straight up Anarchy needs the acknowledgement of Private Property, since Capitalism is the most prolific source of human prosperity in existence. As long as Private Property is secured, free markets will emerge and wealth will be produced through an increase of innovation/efficiency over time.

2023-10-17 16:12:53

I still need to refine my thinking on this. My understanding is that Anarcho-Capitalism and its Ethical implications tie closely with the Christian ethic.
Politics have always been influenced by religion/ethics. Politics being the practice of what ought entities do in the face of scarcity.
Any other Political System doesn't give the freedom of association, citizens cannot opt out unless its an AnCap situation.
I saw that if someone prescribed to just being an AnCap, they'd run into the problem of Moral Relativism. There is no particular reason other than they think respecting an individual's Private Property is preferable and should be secured by decentralized violent entities, whether its the individual or private security firms.
Why should we respect other people's private property and not coerce others? Because every human is a creation of God in his image, given the Freedom to Sin and disobey his wishes.
I say this, probably triggering Christians in the process. Even if an action is immoral, does not mean it should be illegal.
Its essentially defining which social problems require intervention through violence as opposed to cultural/economic change. People have the right to defend themselves but not to steal the things of other people.

Keith Knight addresses some of the motives and context around suicide bombers and terrorism in general. He did this while responding to Yaron Brook's criticisms of Libertarians and the stances of popular Libertarians on the Israel-Palestine conflict.
The part I'm referring to starts at 12:55. He goes over a book that states most suicide bombers are secular communists, among other things.

Believe we're in agreement when it comes to the epistemology, since at best we'd only be able to access a small fraction of Truth overall.
Though even if our perception/interpretation of Beauty is limited and selective, it does not negate the possibility for an objective Beauty
Guess its the difference between the material and immaterial, I see Beauty as immaterial. So like with Maths, just because there isn't a perfect right triangle in nature and it can't be drawn, doesn't mean its not 'real'
Hopefully this is on topic, I do appreciate the discussion. Will have to think about it.

Thats where the liberty movement needs to approach from multiple fronts, such as in Pop Culture and Education, in addition to Political efforts.

Yes, large armed conflicts can only be bankrolled by fractional reserve banking and the debasement of currencies. Rarely do citizens have the desire to go to war.

Securing Private Property, voluntarism, and not equating immorality with illegality
Its immoral to abuse drugs or prostitute yourself, and I'd do my best to reduce that in my community, though that is not a matter for violence to solve. Those activities are non-coercive market actions.

I'm probably missing something in your reasoning. I'm of the understanding that there is only one Truth and Beauty reveals Truth to the observer.
So if Beauty = Truth, I stop for a moment when thinking the creation of a lie results in the revealing of Truth.
Is it really a lie if the observer looks at a portrait or landscape and knows they're not looking at the actual person or looking at a field?

To be fair, Theology and Economic Philosophy were tied together for a large part of human history. Don't think they separated until the Enlightenment period. I'm convinced Anarcho-Capitalism is the most Christian form of Governance so far.

Sometimes it gets difficult to follow since he uses the Post Modern rhetoric to explain their tools. The class struggle concept was cleared up to me once I learned Mises' Polylogism.
The idea that there is no such thing as absolute truth, but class truth.
Proletariat Truth and Bourgeoise Truth
White Truth and Asian Truth
Man Truth and Woman Truth
People who believe in Polylogism cannot be reasoned with because they can say, "This is MY Truth" and dismiss your perspective due to belonging in the 'wrong group'

Securing Private Property and voluntary market exchange, these things are necessary for prosperity in any given society.
Securing these things need a decentralized source of violence production, initially in every citizen being able to carry a weapon. Eventually the market will expand and become more efficient, multiple security firms will emerge. Nobody needs the cops, they need security.
Private security > Public Police force
More accountability, more cost effective, more security coverage. Bet response times and resources would be better in a developed Private Security market.

To not discriminate is to not make value judgements, I'd rather people make those judgments out in the open. Laws against racial discrimination just brings the behavior underground.
For example, the Christian cake maker. Whether you like it or not, they had a right to not make a cake for the LGBTQAII+ couple getting married. Just as customers can discriminate, so can suppliers.

There's nothing wrong with individuals to believe that God exists through the teachings of scripture and/or institutional teachings, then come together in a regular gathering to profess their faith. (Assuming they are not coercive in the practice of their faith)

Just questioned your metaphysical assertion while you assumed it to be self evident. Don't see how that is acting in bad faith.
You were having a 'begging the question' fallacy with your "no human understands the deeper realities of existence" statement.

By saying and accepting that "no human understands the deeper realities of existence" is inherently a statement asserting that you understand the deeper realities of existence.

Atheists that say empirical evidence is why there is no God, maybe stop and reassess the argument. By that reasoning, there is a lack of empirical evidence saying there isn't a God. Using material reasoning to prove the immaterial is a step in the wrong direction.
Just because there isn't a sense experience to the knowledge, doesn't mean its untrue. We use Maths and/or the results of Maths everyday, yet we cannot observe a perfect right triangle in nature.
I'm not too well versed in Apologetics but the 'Transcendental Argument for God' in Orthodox Theology appears to be the best line of thinking for an existence of God.

Apparently Hamas was, in part, created/funded by Israel in the 1970's to split the Palestinian population in a "divide and conquer" scheme.

Companies have two sets of customers:
(1) The people paying for their products and services
(2) The people they pay to produce their products and services.
The Job market is easier to navigate for employers than the market of paying customers in the product/service of their choice.
Its possible the executives are tired of having to constantly improve over long periods of time.

Its unfortunate so many people don't know that Feminism is against God at its foundations.

Ahhhh, I had a fleeting feeling that this sounded Gnostic in description. Couldn't tell earlier.
Do you have any experience with The Kybalion? Which book would you say has a better Philosophical explanation, as opposed to stories or historical accounts?

I wouldn't call you a "loopy new age atlantis nutbag" since I do believe you're discussing this in good faith. Plus, I know very little about this side of anthropology and mythology, so I'm open to learning more.
My perspective comes from a slightly deeper than surface knowledge of Orthodox Christian metaphysics.
Would you recommend "The Apocalypse of Yajnavalkya" as a reference to the new age atlantis stuff?

So many people these days have a low-resolution perspective on complex issues. Its fun and all to joke around saying "Commie BAD" and "Glowie". Gotta remember that these are other human beings and that could have been you if you had different life.
I'd want to provide more educational opportunities in prison systems for the "worst" people out there, nobody is past redemption.
(I even question my resolve in the previous statement when I peruse the plot synopsis of transgressive fiction and get angry, so don't get me started on a rant lol)
Education is such a huge factor in so much that is wrong in the world. This is why I am probably the most ardent about a free-market privatized schooling infrastructure. Diversity of thought and the market determining what is important for the youths to learn.
If parents want an art school, do it. What about Classical Christian Education? If there is a market for it, fine! Personally, I'd want something that is a mix of Classical Christian, STEM, and Entrepreneurship education.
