Monopoly as the Linchpin to the Libertarian Case

except i know what i’m talking about. and you can’t even explain these things to yourself, much less anyone else. its simple economics. the
answers have been there in literature for at least the last 150 years.

You forget that our army protects us! The US military does not hurt the US! It protects us! Whatever abuses the our military may commit against us (which I don’t think they do), it’s nothing compared to what our enemies would do to us if the military weren’t there.

What enemies?

No one in power cares about your advocacy. You are advocating to dead air.

If you know what you’re talking about, why is it that no one agrees with you except for a very small minority? If what you’re saying is such common sense, why are you the only people that get it? I don’t care if the answers have been in literature, I don’t live in a book. I live in the real world, I need real solutions and you guys aren’t giving me any.

oh i see. irrational fear is considered ‘good argument’. and your ignorance of basic economics and the market process is irrelevant when contrasted to
the well told lies you have heard, and your reptile-mind terror of the unkown.

Power is evil itself. You will never stand for freedom unless you give up power, as the definition of power is the denial of another man’s freedom. This must be achieved with violence, and with the use of violence comes the corruption of your soul.

Iran, Pakistan, North Korea…

fallacy :Argumentum_ad_populum

Argumentum_ad_populum

or think.

you need to ‘feel good’

So humans don’t abuse power? Which one is it?

Lol, “power is evil itself”?? You guys are nuts. And I don’t believe in the soul. Freedom has to be earned! It has to be fought for! It’s not just some entitlement! It will be taken from you unless you defend it!

Our point exactly. Once you allow a state, your freedom will be taken away. It is inevitable, and you want to perpetuate this, hence you are a power fighter, not a freedom fighter.

None of these countries are enemies of the United States. They are victims of the American Empire.

In fact, American freedom fighters will find allies in Iran, not enemies.

Ugh! We have a military to protect us from foreign invaders. Whatever abuses our government may make against us are nothing compared to what a foreign ruler would do.

Alright fine. I’m over Austrian economics, this stuff is rubbish.

You’re insane.

you havent shown evidence of any understanding of economics. you just blather half-baked political philosophy.
if you are going to go, if you are ‘over it’ , good bye. good riddance.

No, I watch the Daily Show with Jon Stewart over the internet, as do Iranians.

No big loss. From his speech about personal power, he was most likely a randian.

Mises was not an anarchist!

What of the insane, the very young, or the very old. Please don’t give up on sound theory in spite of a few radical utopians.

I thought this thread was about monopoly though?

Anti-trust to me is irony. Without protectionism, like I.P.,etc, there can be no force to institute monopolism. Monopolies are sanctioned by state action.
