An obvious attack because of his planned armed protest in DC planned for July 4th.

That's not a copy and paste of what I said.

lol, mining is definitely a solution. The more people mine the more valuable coins become the more alt coins will be made. And eventually every region wil have its own coin, and everyone will be supporting their own local economy, which will be driven by the robots.

Almost all precious metal trading forums have this.

So theymos gave in to peer pressure.

And then they invented alcohol.
Don't their tribal mini-kingdoms count as governments? Seems like you're arguing semantics.

Glad you agree.

Markets still require foundations on which they can be built.

You didn't provide any argument to dispute my point.

Certainly communication is required, but not a State. For instance, take two traders who do not share a language. They can (and have in the past) create a shared language, in order to facilitate trade. No State (or even parents) required.

And you haven't even begun discussing how An-Cap could provide a superior framework for markets.

Happy ignorance to you.

Profit is an accounting delusion.

OK, so, because parents need to teach their children how to communicate in order for those children - once grown - to establish a market, therefore we need a monopoly government. Suuuuure....

If you'd actually answer the question (about 2001) and follow through with subsequent questions posed to you, you might see exactly how you're missing out because of your stubborn attitude.

The answer to the question can be answered logically through a series of questions.

Which of my movie recommendations are you going to start with first (with drink in hand)?

You may drink whatever you wish.

After that, I'll allow you to code with the movie playing on your third screen.

ol, mining is definitely a solution. The more people mine the more valuable coins become the more alt coins will be made. And eventually every region wil have its own coin, and everyone will be supporting their own local economy, which will be driven by the robots.

I am beginning to think AnCap may have long-term eugenic effects, as those who cannot adhere to NAP are slowly weeded out of the gene pool via self-defense.  As to whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, well, don't ask me, I'm just a clever talking monkey.

Human nature was perverted by the state enforcing remote property claims. Mutual Aid is human nature.

Black markets were created that were often supplied by goods stolen from the public sector. A saying in Czechoslovakia was "if you do not steal from the state, you are robbing your own family." This second "parallel economy" flourished throughout the Bloc because of rising unmet state consumer needs. Black and gray markets for foodstuffs, goods, and cash arose. Goods included household goods, medical supplies, clothes, furniture, cosmetics, and toiletries in chronically short supply through official outlets.

So the pilgrimz werent eeevil imperialist proto capitalists?!?!?!?!?

All this while no supply was heard of…. So they began to think how they might raise as much corn as they could, and obtain a better crop than they had done, that they might not still thus languish in misery. At length … the Governor (with the advice of the chiefest among them) gave way that they should set corn every man for his own particular, and in that regard trust to themselves…. And so assigned to every family a parcel of land … for that end, only for present use…. This had very good success, for it made all hands very industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been by any means the Governor or any other could use, and saved him a great deal of trouble, and gave far better content. The women now went willingly into the field, and took their little ones with them to set corn; which before would allege weakness and inability; whom to have compelled would have been thought great tyranny and oppression.

I bet you have a bank account, or pay taxes. Way to pay troll tolls.

Where do you live?  The taxman always takes a charge on your house to collect overdue taxes.  There is no velvet glove.  They don't say "Please"

Self interest over total gain- precisely my criticism of the trappings of what amounts to a purely capitalist impulse.

The experience that was had in this common course and condition, tried sundry years and that amongst godly and sober men, may well evince the vanity of that conceit of Plato's … that the taking away of property and bringing community into a commonwealth would make them happy and flourishing…. For this community … was found to breed much confusion and discontent and retard much employment that would have been to their benefit and comfort. For the young men, that were most able and fit for labour and service, did repine that they should spend their time and strength to work for other men's wives and children without any recompense. The strong … had no more in division of victuals and clothes than he that was weak and not able to do a quarter the other could; this was thought injustice…. Upon … all being to have alike, and all to do alike, they thought … one as good as another, and so … did … work diminish … the mutual respects that should be preserved amongst men…. Let none object this is men's corruption … all men have this corruption in them…. (William Bradford, Of Plymouth Plantation, New York: Knopf, 1952, pp. 120–21.)

I'm still waiting for my troll toll tip. You had fun, admit it. Pay me!
