  • Re: Anarcho-Capitalism: Possibilities and Limitations

    Please note that I made some changes to the post that Brainpolice was replying to. [quote user="Brainpolice"]The fundamental error in your thinking here is the treatment of anarchism as a singular "model" for everyone within a huge territory per se. It isn't. The entire point...

  • Re: Anarcho-Capitalism: Possibilities and Limitations

    On putting anarcho-capitalism into practice... [quote user="Knight_of_BAAWA"]Why does one need to when one does not have the burden of proof? I see no reason to do it.[/quote]Because it's not about proving something, but about living ones dream. [quote user="Knight_of_BAAWA"]Why...

  • Property rights on river - FAQ

    I spend some good amount of time on evolving the idea of property rights on water resources, especially rivers. I checked the community threads about it, but most people (even here) have fallen back on the idea having rivers treated as public property, since craving property rights on river sounds too...

  • Could anarchy work in human society?

  • Aviation regulation?

    I've been wondering lately how the aviation sector would work in an anarcho-capitalist society, and how common rules regarding flying would develop and be adopted/enforced.

  • How would the stock market work without the state?

    Since the only stocks that are traded on the stock market are those of corporations and under anarcho-capitalism a corporation would not exist how would a stock market work under those circumstances? Would there or could there even be a stock market?

  • Notes from my classes

    Within my study of technical communication I rarely encounter economic and philosophic ideas. But every once in a while some come along, especially because the current topic in my lone rhetoric class is laissez faire capitalism. So here are a few I encountered today. Copyright laws, or intellectual property...
