Thought I might open distributism up for discussion.
http://distributism.blogspot.com/2008/07/chapter-vii-fictitious-commodities.html
I am not really familiar with distributism. I know though, that K.Carson mentions it, somewhat often, in a favroable manner and links to various sources on it in his blog. (Does anyone know where I might find more of an analysis of distributism than that in Thomas Woods article here on Mises?) The ideas of "commodification of nature" and man presented here do not appeal to me one bit to say the least. The idea of money, presented as a fictious cpmmodity, seems equally as bogus.
The state is a disease and Liberty is the both the victim and the only means to a lasting cure.
When I hear the word "commodification" my bullshit-dar goes off.
