Re: Another problem for AC
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] There will be enough people disgusted by this sort of thing that "charities" will be set up to find abused kids and put them in decent homes...using free hotlines and neighborhood watch and things like that. [/ QUOTE ] Whoa, there. You mean that in the name of "charity" someone will trespass on others' land and simply take their children? Thus taking valuable property that could be exchanged in the "free market for children" you describe elsewhere in your post? Sounds pretty coercive to me. Almost "state-like". That having been said, congratulations and thank you for actually answering someone's question rather than posting some useless thing like "what have you got so far" in a pathetic attempt to distract from the fact that you have no answers. [/ QUOTE ] Amazing that you can read thousands of posts about something and still not understand the first thing about it. On second thought, no; it's not amazing at all. It's typical.

Re: Another problem for AC
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] What have you come up with so far? [/ QUOTE ] This is an incredibly insightful question. Anyone who isn't an intellectual lazetard should attempt to answer questions like these for themselves before jumping to the default statist position that there can't possibly be any solutions and hence we must have the Government of the Gaps. [/ QUOTE ] This post is simply a continuation of the well-worn AC advocate strategy of deflecting uncomfortable questions. There is no post on here "jumping to the default statist position". The original post is a simple question. Which should be amenable of a simple answer. Yet only WillMagic is making any effort at all. Calling this tactic "incredibly insightful" doesn't even pass the laugh test, much less make any substantive point.

[/ QUOTE ] This very question has been answered by myself and others on this very board, and I suspect you know that. Which makes your contention that the "ACers" have "no answers" intellectually dishonest as well as retarded. At some point people have to understand that because they can't think of how something could work doesn't mean it can't. And then they have to actually attempt to think of how it might work themselves. personal attack deleted

[/ QUOTE ] Amazing that you can make two posts in this thread with essentially zero substantive content, and one a personal attack, to boot. This is the best AC has to offer? [/ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] For example. In an anarchocapitalist society, no one has the right to abuse their child. Their child is not property. The child has a right to life and liberty. If you see a child being abused I am sure there would be child protection foundations that you could contact and report the problem. They could conduct an investigation, and if they find and can show sufficient evidence, could sue for custody of the child. It's a straightforward process that I just thought up off the top of my head. This kind of stuff is not hard if you stop thinking government has to do everything. [/ QUOTE ] Was that so hard?

AC is simply a system without government, not a system without courts and laws. People demand law&order, and there's no reason to think that the market couldn't supply it. [ QUOTE ] Also, what laws would a court enforce without a legislature to write them? and who appoints the judges? [/ QUOTE ] Laws would evolve through the market. Common law actually has a pretty long history in Western Civilization. You don't need a legislature for people to abide and enforce laws against theft, murder and enslavement...such laws are fundamental and self-evident. On the other hand, it would be hard to find people willing to enforce laws prohbiting internet gambling. As for courts...disputes would most likely be handled by private arbitrators. And nobody has to "appoint" the arbitrators...the arbitrators who make the most fair decisions are going to be the most respected and the most patronized, while poor arbitrator's judgments will be disrespected and worthless.
