RE: Capitalism Isn't About Exploitation

in #anarchy8 years ago

Good post. As the saying goes: "Government ideas, so good that they must be enforced at gunpoint." Unnatural laws distort market signals, create imbalances between supply and demand, and are morally invalid. When one wakes up to the non-aggression principle, the repugnance of the force that the majority of the population has grown to embrace is apparent.

Sort:  

Well, I take issue with that slogan, to be quite honest. I believe my ideas are so good, i.e. justifiable, that they are justified to be enforced at gunpoint, if it is a proportional amount of force or threat of force being used in response to aggression.

Coercion isn't necessarily unjustified, so that isn't what libertarians are against. Libertarians are against aggressive coercion.
