Before reading the post, I would've guessed there was a 42.7% chance of this being true.

I didn't read it but as I was scrolling down I was thinking, "who the f wrote this? Ayn Rand?" and then I get to the bottom and the last line is:

Just to be absolutely clear: Anarcho-capitalism is retarded.

If you believe that anarcho-capitalism is the best system to live under, you are RETARDED.

I would have a hard time believing that Boro didn't type this up elsewhere, at least several days previous to the actual post date.

Then again, I'm also surprised that so many people read the entire thing.

I already posted my detailed "AC will fail in any real world test because of economies of scale and the majority's distaste for death and violence" post in politics, which the resident morons (you, riddick, no one cares who else) rebutted with sophisticated arguments like "nuh uh," "give it a chance," "history means nothing to me" and "I'd like to see them try."

I did my part to combat the retardedness of libertarnachocapitalisismo. So now I'm going back to my eternal strength: making fun of people who are dumber than me. Namely you.

You are retarded.

1. I'm getting a dog. Probably in July.

2. I'm being a little evil by insulting borodog's wife instead of pretending to engage his sophomoric ideas as though they deserved thorough discussion.

3. I hope to god no one I work for reads this forum, cause reading that capitalism post will make them permanently dumber.

I read your posts in the Politics forum. All your arguments boil down to "leave it or love it" and "might makes right."

Might doesn't make right, but given that Somalia is widely touted as the first A/C proving ground, you might be able to discern why most people aren't anxious to vote to disband the state.

Edit:

And it's not love it or leave it - but how exactly do you expect AC to get started if no one in their right mind here is gonna vote for it?

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, I think might makes right is what the world operates on, whether in nature or humanity. It doesn't necessarily make one evil to recognize that. I don't think a resourceless land like Somalia is a fair indication of what AC would consist of in a more developed part of the world. Hell, you could claim Antarctica is an AC proving ground, then try to show how AC fails because no one wants to live there. These arguments don't pass muster to me, and I'm not an ACer like the other posters.

Anyway, I guess we're all in the wrong forum.

AC will get started when people value personal freedom and property rights more than the coercive "protection" of a large government. When will this happen? Maybe never.

Most people are wise enough not to depend on the kindness of strangers. Reeling in human barbarity is a tall order. Few of us would like to be left completely to the devices of the powerful. Many of these right wing calls for social change are like asking people to jump into the woodchipper, followed by a hilarious petulance and amazement that they'd rather not.

Except those in the state. Depending on the kindness of those strangers is perfectly wise. Hint: capitalism depends not on the kindness of strangers but rather on personal responsibility. The state breeds dependence on strangers and irresponsibility. It institutionalizes it.

Unless the humans in question are in the government. Then they are perfectly virtuous and angelic, unencumbered by self-interest and merely human motivations.
