Compared to its anarchocapitalist present, yes.

The debris left after the collapse of a government != an anarchocapitalistic society.

Chaos left after US and UN nation building efforts != an anarchocapitalistic society.

By any other measure, no. Yeah man, the market and liberal economic theories predicated on an infinite resource pool are really practical!

[/ QUOTE ]

Lol. Ok. I can stop paying attention to you now. You have no idea what you're talking about.

So, show us a implementation of it that has been successful.

They were banished on an Island with PVN to establish their unestablishable society.

So according to your implied logic, if you can't show me, for example, a lunar colony that has been successful, that makes it impossible?

No, it can not be proved until after an unlimited amount of experiments, but experiments conducted can show if it is likely or not to succeed.

One thing about anarcho-capitalists: They produce more than enough strawmen to satisfy the market.

So what was the point of your snide remark?

It was snide, since you seem to be 100% sure that anarchocapitalism is the way to go but you are not providing any thoughtful reasoning or empirical evidence for that; and you seem to think those who disagree with you are less intelligent/ cunning than you.

[Borodog]

What is it about statists that they have to come crawling out of the woodwork insulting people at every opportunity? I asked if there were any anarchocapitalists around. Is it too much to ask that if a) you're not an anarchocapitalist, and b) you have nothing but snarky remarks to make, you just shut the [censored] up? I suppose it is.

It's not as if I started a thread proselytizing.

I'm 100% sure it was snide because you're a jerk. But be that as it may, I didn't start a thread to debate the merits of anarchocapitalism. I simply asked if there were any lurking around. Of course I think anarchocapitalism is the way to go, or else I wouldn't be an anarchocapitalist. But again . . . I didn't start a thread to proselytize or debate anarchocapitalism. I just asked if any where around. You, in your infinite superiority, couldn't let this opporunity for a sarcastic remark slide past, and posted your link to Somalia, implying that Somalia was somehow an example of anarchocapitalism. I didn't imply anyone was less intelligent or "cunning" than myself, except perhaps the guy who doesn't know what capitalism is (I'm still waiting for his treatise). All I pointed out was that the wreckage left over after a government runs itself into the ground is not an example of anarchocapitalism. And rather than just conceding this simple and rather obvious point [or rebutt it], you come up with a snide remark.

So spare me the moral high ground attitude about who believes they are more intelligent and or cunning.

[Arnfinn Madsen]

People being as defensive of you usually don't have much to back up their statement. I was not posting Somalia as a snide remark, I was posting it to show you how extreme anarchocapitalism turns out. A lot of creative, innovative business models, but a complete lack of i.e. road building and a lack of investment capital.
