The burden of proof is on AnCap and not the other way around.   

Wrong. You made an assertion that one can own property without self-ownership. We are determining how, and the burden of proof lies upon you.

I never made that exact distinction.  Wrong, those are your words.

I guess we would need to research a specific claim to give you that information.
I don't want a specific case. I want general terms. How does a property owner legitimately establish an original claim on a natural resource such as land?

Yeah, yeah... I think I can answer that one: via "homesteading" and all that. However, your appeal to 'legitimacy' seems hypocritical. Surely legitimacy is a community value, not an individualist value? By claiming that some methods (of e.g.: applying the label of "private property" to hitherto unspoiled lands) possess legitimacy, it sounds like you're rationalising your greed/territorial instincts. As an individualist, you don't really believe in legitimacy, since that is an appeal to an external authority such as a community with majority rule.

I knew I found the weakness earlier in this AnCap and this line of reasoning.  The burden of proof is on AnCap and not the other way around.   

They can't even understand that you are born "into" a world with set laws and customs that operated before they got their life/liberty. 

I'm not even an anarchist, but this line of reasoning is faulty on your part.  The early American colonists established ownership via homesteadong. The marked off a plot of and that no one seemed to have yet, and began to work it.  There was even a term for it at the time, 'corn rights'.  Only later did a state arise and recognize those existing claims.  A community is required, but a community does not a government make.  An ancap society is as likely to be communal as any other.

Regardless if you have state governments or republic representation, it is still and government and they historically have required taxes for certain basic services.  Up to this point, AnCap advocates can not handle having a "required" tax.  That has been the real hangup.  They somehow think this come into this world with no required claims to them.   Honestly I think that notion is ridiculous.   Look, I want to pay a small a tax that is reasonable but the thought of none at all is just odd and I am quite sure I would see a decline of service.

Homesteading is over with, all land has claim so it is pointless to talk about that in current days.   If we are going to discuss proposals, they should have a realistic path to be implemented.   AnCap has not such path at this time other than a violent revolution,  we would be against a large portion of their core beliefs.

Property taxes are one I don't like.  You should be able to own land.

Well, yes, we are making a little progress. You feel that land is something you should be able to own without any other claim on it. But there's a bit of a disconnect. How? How does one establish such a claim on land?

The purchase price for land should be all in and you pay for the maintenance of your utilities and access

With what?
And how did the original owner get the claim on the land?

Usually payment is in some form of value like money.

I guess we would need to research a specific claim to give you that information.

wtf is nation-states?

Nation-state

"The nation state is a state that self-identifies as deriving its political legitimacy from serving as a sovereign entity for a nation as a sovereign territorial unit.[1] The state is a political and geopolitical entity; the nation is a cultural and/or ethnic entity. The term "nation state" implies that the two geographically coincide. Nation state formation took place at different times in different parts of the earth but has become the dominant form of state organization."

The purchase price for land should be all in and you pay for the maintenance of your utilities and access which would be handled by the local utilities. 

Like I said, we need major reforms and I can point out countless areas, inconsistencies and conflicts.   What you are advocating to getting rid of the government entirely and I disagree, AnCap would be worse for more people overall even with out current reckless system.

I own myself (body, mind and spirit) and I understand that I am not the only claimant on my output that is codified in our taxation system, in America. 

Then you accept that someone has greater claim than yourself over your body. Who?


I reject the premise that you believe you are the SOLE claimant to your output in the country you reside in.  Also having a claimant, you shouldn't automatically assume that claim is higher than mine, it is in addition

If they can legitimately force you to give it up involuntarily, then their claim is higher to it than yours.

So, I ask again, Who has a higher clam than you to you?

Against, none of us was born into a world without existing laws, rules and claims.  You may think you can talk away those claims and come up with fantasy lands but in the end, you do owe something to the forefathers, your parents, our society and to future generations.   I reject the notion you put forth based.  The world is more complex and has been around much longer than you and I.   You may think it is just that simple as asserting your statement, but in reality it is not.

P.S.  I got called away for work, didn't mean for such a long delay.

Dalkore, just caught up reading the rest of your arguments. The gist of your claim is that, since you were born in this society that provided you, you now "owe" that society for the things it provided. Fair enough. So, tell me, how much is that debt, exactly, and how can one pay it off? I'm not even suggesting "i paid of my debt, so now I can ignore rules and laws when I'm visiting others or am on public property." Rules that others establish for their own property I'm fine with. I mean, how much do I have to pay to buy back the claims that the state has laid on me and my own property, so that I can be free  to have my own rules on the land I own, and pay taxes only for services  I want?


Now we are getting somewhere, thank you Rassah.


1.  How much is that debt, exactly, and how can one pay it off? I'm not even suggesting "i paid of my debt, so now I can ignore rules and laws when I'm visiting others or am on public property."

Response
:  Well even if you did pay the off, you couldn't ignore laws but I do think some of our problems people should be able to opt-out to take those claims on you as an American citizen to a minimum.

2.  Rules that others establish for their own property I'm fine with. I mean, how much do I have to pay to buy back the claims that the state has laid on me and my own property, so that I can be free  to have my own rules on the land I own, and pay taxes only for services  I want?

Response:  Well I believe there are a few service we are all responsible as terms of being a citizen.  But most should be able to be removed.  Property taxes are one I don't like.  You should be able to own land.

Chosen to ignore me, Dalkore?

Such a shame, so soon after calling me a "worthy opponent"

I would do no such thing.  I didn't see anything that required a response.   You just made a statement.

I asked a question.

I own myself (body, mind and spirit) and I understand that I am not the only claimant on my output that is codified in our taxation system, in America. 

Then you accept that someone has greater claim than yourself over your body. Who?

I reject the premise that you believe you are the SOLE claimant to your output in the country you reside in.  Also having a claimant, you shouldn't automatically assume that claim is higher than mine, it is in addition.  

I don't know, I am not sure you are up to task for this.  I can feel preaching about "how can you allow an other claims on your labor" to come on this thread.  I think I have got this system in check and I don't know if you can maneuver it out of it.

You only real argument is that somehow you claim you have not obligations to anyone except yourself.   That is a tough position to defend when we use reason and logic.  I know you will defend it but you will be wrong unless you have something better to add than "self-ownership" and Youtube video about someones views on Liberty.

I do not believe corporations will change their modus operandi.  People still run these organization with their own greed and status.  More likely they will get more covert in their actions.  You can setup this alternative method of state but in the end, how to we change human nature to this point?  How do we get people to genuinely care about about other people, the environment, future generations.  AnCap does answer any of these and the only promise is less force and less government.   I only see even more abuse of a larger portion of the Strong vs. Weak.

You have to measure the value of your society from the base, not the apex.  I don't see AnCap doing that.

I don't believe they will change, either. There will always be assholes in any society. What will change is whether there is a government to enable the corporation's bad activities. Instead of the people saying "That's wrong!" and the government saying, "Well, it was still perfectly legal," there will only be people saying "That's wrong!"

As for how do we get people to genuinely care about about other people, the environment, and future generations, we don't actually get people to do that now. People already care about that, and they only pass (ineffective) regulations to try to enforce it. People will still care in AnCap society. They will just have to figure out how to enforce those regulations without a government that gets most of it's lobbying funds from the corporations it's trying to regulate (e.g. Boycott bad businesses and anyone dealing with them, use force to protest them, donate to private "awareness" groups who can help spread the message, etc. Imagine if Greenpeace had the funding, resources, and ability to own battleships, instead of rubber boats)

Well there you have it.  AnCap's only answer is get rid of government and hope things get better and self-organize itself to work better than what we have.

Good luck selling that.  Corporations are already run by powerful people with their own interests, take away the only flimsy defense (up to this point) we have had is a much scarier prospect. 

I have proven why to "no government" movement will never get seriously considered from the common person, it is because the common person is more scared of the actions of other common people than their government and the corporations that lobby it for their own benefit.  Until you change that, YOU GOT NOTHING

Except a few good ideas that could be used as good reform tools.

I own myself (body, mind and spirit) and I understand that I am not the only claimant on my output that is codified in our taxation system, in America.  

To Myrkul:  "Check"

So by what authority does the "codified taxation system" have on your property other than just a bunch of people want to take your stuff?

Now that is a different discussion.  You really should open a new topic for that question and I will be happy to start a dialogue of ideas and thoughts.


Response:  We first off, I would say that the infrastructure and safety you and your parents enjoys so they could meet, make relationship and have you as a baby would first off be items I would say were not there before and did provide services to us all. 

At least in America we have a number of services that are taxed and provided for everyone (I know our current system is screwed up, lets say pre-1913 or pre-1971 to give a time-frame).  Unless you are a 100% Native American, your parents either immigrated or were brought as slaves so they signed themselves up and you defacto when they came here. 

Anyone is welcome to go somewhere else and try and claim their absolute sovereignty but at least from where I am at, I am in America (U.S.) and we have rules/laws and to try and challenge the most core basic ones, you better have a much better argument than claim liberty of self-ownership.   

Now characterizing a government codifying tax laws as "other than just a bunch of people want to take your stuff?" just really shows a very myopic and extreme point of view.  I believe you would need to back away from the assertion for us to have a meaningful debate.   You show your position quite clearly with no room to debate and or compromise.

Have you watched the video yet? It's only 8 minutes.

Yes I did and here is the flaw in the line of reasoning.   Property.  You can have your life and liberty and I support and would challenge any attempt against taking that unless you have aggressed against someone else in the same manner.

Lets take property.   First off, you had no property when you came into this world so you have no automatic claim to any.
Who owns your body?

As stated above your life (body) is your own and only your own.   If you didn't read this I wrote, I'll will re-post it "You can have your life and liberty and I support and would challenge any attempt against taking that unless you have aggressed against someone else in the same manner."

Why not go directly at my statement instead of asking a question that has a stated answer?

Because you directly contradicted it. Your body is your original property. From it, come all other property claims. You didn't actually bother to Google "self-ownership" didja?

Don't try that, I did Google that.  I think it is wrong the the fact that everyone comes into a world with "pre-claim" before them so you are not the SOLE owner of your output.

So, again, we're back to: Who owns you?

So I take it you don't have an answer or know where this will lead if you start defending your position.  I answered your question but you can't obviously accept the answer.  Truth hurts.  

I own myself (body, mind and spirit) and I understand that I am not the only claimant on my output that is codified in our taxation system, in America.

Don't try that, I did Google that.  I think it is wrong the the fact that everyone comes into a world with "pre-claim" before them so you are not the SOLE owner of your output.  In America for example, we have a Constitution, Bill of Rights, USC, Common Law, Roman Law, State Law, Admiralty Law, etc.  When you come into existence in America you have rules to follow and there is a claim on your output.   You may object but the fact is that you don't come into the world in a bubble or vacuum.   Things were put in place to allow you to come into the world in the manner it is at anyone point.   Any debate to that is just a protest against the FACT.

So if we want to protest the system and talk about reform and complete change, that is one thing and I would like to talk about that.  But to sit there and preach "self-ownership" and that is why you should not be forced to do anything is patently absurd.  Who wants a world of people that don't feel they have any responsibility to anyone except their "self".   Sounds quite selfish to me.

Title: A Eulogy for #Occupy
URL: http://www.wired.com/opinion/2012/12/a-eulogy-for-occupy/all/

This says a lot about bitcointalk.org:
Quote
Because the GA had no way to reject force, over time it fell to force. Proposals won by intimidation; bullies carried the day. What began as a way to let people reform and remake themselves had no mechanism for dealing with them when they didn’t. It had no way to deal with parasites and predators. It became a diseased process, pushing out the weak and quiet it had meant to enfranchise until it finally collapsed when nothing was left but predators trying to rip out each other’s throats.

Let us just hope that BitcoinTalk.org figures out that freedom of association is also a right, and as a private website BitcoinTalk.org has the freedom to not associate with users that an overwhelming majority of site users downvote or ignore.


Did anyone NOT see this coming?

In my mind (and I know many of you will disagree), it kind of proves the point that an elected government that tries to do things for the good of the people is better than no government at all, and letting the bullies rule because no one else is.

Occupy had a government -- a group of people in charge of making decisions on others' and others' resources behalf -- , and it was called GA.  And just like any other government, it quickly became corrupt and ineffective.  The only reason it didn't last any longer is because they had competition (the established governments of the cities) and the competition had guns.

Actually the reason Occupy failed is exactly opposite.   Their initially was no structure or common message and this culture got embedded in the collective so when it was clear that leadership and a core message was needed, there was heavy resistance and sabotage from all side.  I knew it was going to happen after watching the first few interviews from people the media put up and quasi-representatives and they had no message and stated this was a movement without an actually leader.  It was doomed from that moment.  People have so many opinions and perspectives, that doesn't mean each one has the same merit.  Sometimes you just need someone or a body to guide the direction while its own momentum and culture develops.  It is crucial.

Because logic is something the statist mind is carefully stripped of.

I was a statist too, so that can't be it...

Sorry, starting to get burned out on all the malignancy. Maybe it's just willful ignorance.

I love the air of arrogance in your statements like this.  "The Statist Mind".  If you want to use Logic and Reasoning then lets just take it back that Humans are highly evolved animals and we still have maintained basic animal instincts and they is exactly why you need a government of force to keep the people from turning this place in utter chaos.   I will admit when we had much fewer people and more land to spread out, we didn't need to be as competitive but now, that is not the case. 
Have you watched the video yet? It's only 8 minutes.

Yes I did and here is the flaw in the line of reasoning.   Property.  You can have your life and liberty and I support and would challenge any attempt against taking that unless you have aggressed against someone else in the same manner.

Lets take property.   First off, you had no property when you came into this world so you have no automatic claim to any.  Once you start claim rights over property, NOW, you have to start following rules and they are mandatory, not voluntary, unless you decide to violate them then at the point, the person or body or persons would be justified to come after you to regain their property.

Now we can get into a debate and claims and how they should be handled and who gets what, but I want to focus on the fact that you came into this world like me, which no inherent property other that your life and freedom.

So unless we deal with prior claims to property which at this point, nation states have all laid claim to, you have no way to IMPOSE AnCap anywhere and unless you deal with that, it is just a fantasy with some good points we could use to reform the current State system.

I am not sure you want to start debating this with me.  Let see if you can talk your way out of this.   I almost already know what you will try and say so I am waiting.  Good luck and as always, I do enjoy our debates, your a worthy opponent.

I don't want, and never wanted, to blame "governments".  They don't exist.  All there is, is people doing things.

I blame the belief in the virtue of a group who perpetrates organized aggression to parasitize everyone else.  People under the influence of this belief, whether members or victims of this group, are the ones who believe that governments exist.  Not me.

What you see in observable reality is nothing more than (a) a tiny minority of people telling you what to do and how much to pay so they will let you live unharmed (b) a gaggle of people who incorrectly believe that the first group are their saviors and protectors, and worship them as a result of this incorrect belief.

That is, to me, the essence of statism.  It is to recoil in horror when watching an aggressor murder another, then to watch the exact same scene with the aggressor in a blue costume, only to say "well, he had it coming".  It is to feel terrified about being robbed of half of what you have, but paying up every April 15th with an unease that is hard to explain away.  It is to talk shit about Halliburton while celebrating the paid murderers in green costumes.  It is to cry in awe as the President sheds tears for the death of 20 children, when he himself has ordered the firebombing of 2000.  It is that level of irrationality.  That is statism.

The problem isn't "totalitarianism".  It never was, not in the slightest.  The problem really isn't "aggressive people using too much aggression".  The problem is the belief that a bunch of aggressive people are virtuous and protect you.  That very belief, that the aggressive people are authorized and righteous to use aggression, is precisely what enables the aggressive people to murder everyone else, with total impunity.

If you think for a second that you live in a human farm, where you're farmed for your labor, and suppressed if you become a problem for the farmers, then the distinction between "totalitarianism" and "democracy" becomes very easy to figure out: both are merely methods to organize the farm.

The belief that a human being is righteously authorized to murder, brutalize, or cage another human being, as punishment for peacefully resisting an order, is not a totalitarian belief -- it is a statist belief.  Democide is not caused by totalitarianism -- it is caused by statism.

I quoted this from a user that believe in AnCap that he made this quite serious charge against the nation-state form of government.  I would like to get replies from people who don't believe that the AnCap system is better than nation-states.   These paragraphs above do in essence make-up part of the substance against the nation-state-mandatory-taxaxtion method of organizing society. 

Thoughts?

Comparing today's corporations, hiding behind the regulations they paid for, to companies that would operate in an AnCap environment is like comparing a wolf to a dog. Sure, they're both canines, but one is a dangerous beast, and the other is tamed.

Oh so you say that AnCap corporations would be tamed.   Where is your proof of that?  Corporations would have the same motivations as they do now except they would have less rules and regulations because the people who would be the most capitalistic in the AnCap society would not "voluntary" agree to more rules and regulations.   I see this aspect of society regressing if we had AnCap than a Nation-State.

Step one on your trail, you have to realize that rules and regulations exit to protect corporations, not to restrict them. Many regulations are structured in such a way that only the corporations can afford to follow them, essentially keeping all smaller competitors off the market. Also, business people know business very well, while politicians who pass laws do not. So any laws and regulations that get passed are often written by the corporations themselves. The most egregious offense in regards to this abuse is corporations helping pass regulations that either make what what do actually legal, even if it is unethical, or they pass regulations with suggested fines, which when levied are actually way too small to punish. Heck, look what happened when BP spilled oil in the Gulf. All their safety regulations were followed, because they wrote them, and the regulators were too incompetent to follow up on and enforce them, and the "huge" fine they had to pay, which they got in exchange for not being allowed to be sued by anyone else, was tiny and way less than the cleanup cost.
In an AnCap state, the first thing that may go is the corporation's "limited liability" status. If the person running it fucks up, HE has to answer for that, not the shareholders out of who's stock the fines get paid out of. The second thing will be that there wont be a government with its laws making what the corporation is doing "legal." If it's not screwing people, it will do well. If it is, it wont have a  veil of "legality" to protect it. Here's another thing: what do you think will happen now if a corporation screwed people so much that the people decided to go beyond simple boycotts, and staged a violent protest, trying to kick the corporation out of their area? In AnCap nation, either the corporation will have to leave, or it will have to spend enormous amounts on private security 24 hours a day. Now, the corporation has such a security force, in the form of the police force and US military, providing that security protection for them for free, paid for by taxing those very same people who are protesting!

In short, misbehaving in an AnCap setting will likely be much more expensive than playing by the rules and staying ethical,  which is very much not the case now. What I am wondering is, I keep saying and explaining this point over and over and over.... So why doesn't it sink in, and these same stupid hypotheticals keep coming up again?

I do not believe corporations will change their modus operandi.  People still run these organization with their own greed and status.  More likely they will get more covert in their actions.  You can setup this alternative method of state but in the end, how to we change human nature to this point?  How do we get people to genuinely care about about other people, the environment, future generations.  AnCap does answer any of these and the only promise is less force and less government.   I only see even more abuse of a larger portion of the Strong vs. Weak.

You have to measure the value of your society from the base, not the apex.  I don't see AnCap doing that.
