This was a clear reference to the example I just gave: someone starving to death who needs to work for money. To say that they aren't "forced" to do a really crappy job is ridiculous.

What you're not getting is that ACists reject the concept that people owe any kind of moral obligation one to another. (Except for one.)

(According to ACists) if someone lacks arms, that's his problem.

The one and only obligation people have (according to ACists) is to respect property rights.

Therefore, an economy that forces the poor to choose between starvation and slavery does not involve the use of 'force' (according to ACers).

But a poor person stealing bread - does. According to ACers.
