Leviathan: Capitalism Requires the State.

[Knight_of_BAAWA]

@Laughing Man

but its not as if socialists have some claim over libertarianism.

@Leviathan

They have the only legitimate one, actually.

Oh not this bullshit again. Look: by your reasoning, only catholics are christians because catholicism predates protestantism. Clearly, that’s wrong. Just as your reasoning re: libertarian is wrong.

@Praetyre

Please provide, for our benefit, your definition of capitalism.

@Leviathan

Capitalism is a socioeconomic system characterized by the private ownership of the means of production, market exchange as the primary means of resource allocation, and the existence of wage labor.

And yet we have government-run garbage. Explain how that exists in capitalism. Remember: capitalism doesn’t require the state, so you’re going to have a real problem attempting to justify your lie that it does require the state.
