So if someone decided to buy up all the land around my house, then told me that if i encroached upon their private property i would be shot, what could i do? Similarly, what if for some reason i no longer had any money to pay the toll, would i be unable to travel across the country to either work o…

Charter a helicopter? Part of the curb is often part of the private property adjoining it. Would you charge people to walk across it? Do malls normally charge people to walk around inside them? No one can know exactly how the system will work until it’s tried, but why do these particular expense…

But someone buying up all the private property around my house is a possibility in such a society. I would like to know how it can be dealt with. Your answer seems to indicate you have no idea. Secondly, the point i’m trying to make is that there will be many occassions in many people’s lives that …

No, I am not restricting their freedom in this case. Do you understand that someone has to pay the cost associated with getting any person from point A to point B? Who do you suggest should pay for this, if not the person who desires to get from point A to point B? I would like to know how you …

Instead, a complex web of human desires will build up in which people respect each others’ property. For example: Considering your scenario, people in a community decide to not allow a…

To beat the dead horse a bit more: I had the same concern as you a month ago when I joined these boards. Since then, I have realized that part of the problem is that our frame of mind is still statist in a sense: If we don’t have the FDA, we will die of food poisoning. No. This is false. We would …

I’d rather have anarcho-capitalism and face the (extremely unlikely) possibility of ending up in the hole of a doughnut-shaped property. And hey - what’s to stop ever-larger concentric property rings extending outward, with the entire real estate market supported by humble little me at the center of…

I like Rothbard’s answer: The point is that the advocate of a free market in anything cannot provide a “constructive” blueprint of such a market in advance. The essence and the glory of the free market is that individual firms and businesses, competing on the market, provide an ever-changing or…
