Default Re: Freedom in spite of government

All anarcho-capitalists are against the existence of corporations. They accomplish two things: 1) shield their shareholders from fraud (which is not a good thing imo), and 2) produce tax benefits, which is just protection from something that the government is wrongly doing to them in the first place. It's like buying "insurance" from the mafia.

I agree that some market innovation has been facilitated by government subsidies, just as I believe that the government has passed some laws that did good (the pure food and drug act, for example). But overall, I believe the net result is wholly negative.

Calling American business "capitalism" is preposterous. Capitalism specifically denotes a free market, and ours is anything but.
