I didn't, like any sane man I actually grew INTO it. I was a young liberal, went into a conservative faze, then went full Nat-Soc because of /pol/, but that was really just edgy and idealist inspiration, a small fetish in the back of my mind for racial purity and violence, not the result of logical ideology but testosterone fueled lust for Darwinian action that I craved in a boring world.

What moved me past this? The realization that these useless, limpdick cunts in white collars sitting at their desks can barely handle aiming their cum into a tissue, not to mention spending my fucking money and giving me useless laws and directions. Why would I praise them and thank them? Do I have any shred of independence, manhood, decency? Yes, I have a spine, and I also view things in the most pragmatic and rational lense possible. The government does some necessary things, and the free market doesn't always win, but I won't go full anarchist and I won't go full commie, libertarianism can efficiently meet most demands in society, history and statistics have proved this.

Only low test manchildren who need boots to lick could possibly disagree.

I was riding the bus off campus when I overheard a conversation between the bus driver and a student who said he was getting a master's degree in curatorial studies. Normally I would have thought him an enormous faggot, but while I was listening to the conversation, I heard him describe some of the things he did while setting up an exhibition in one of the galleries on campus. Without giving away too much detail bout what he did, I'll say that I thought that what he was doing was a worthwhile human endeavour. In a libertarian world, nobody would ever have shelled out for what he was doing, but the government and (public) university provided grants. There are many other things that ought to be done, such as supervised injection sites for junkies to keep them from shooting up on playgrounds, but the market won't provide them. Either charity or the state needs to jump in.

That revelation alone wasn't enough to turn me off libertarianism completely, since charities can do lots of good work in absence of an inefficient government bureaucracy. Two other things eventually put me off libertarianism altogether.

1. Wealth concentration reduces total utility.
A starving person would have much more appreciation for a 2$ burrito than a Donald Trump would. In microeconomics, this appreciation is part of th utility of the burrito. Another example is that people without schools to send their kids to get more utility from a shitty school being made available to them than a rich person who already sends their kids to private school. If you could somehow take the 2$ for the burrito from the rich person and give it to the starving person, total utility increases. The upshot is that the starving person now has enough energy to work for the rich person, and the poor people might learn to read and become more productive as a result. Unfortunately, this also means stealing by threat of violence from the rich person. Furthermore, the government is inefficient and corrupt.

So I guess /pol/ dislikes libertarianism. Of course a fully lolbertarian society is garbage, but alot of libertarian ideas bring us away from what /pol/ dislikes even more: Globalism. I don't think a purely libertarian society would work just as a pure communism, unregulated capitalism or heaven forbid anarchy wouldn't work. No "pure" societies work. Although I guess I could just post a meme picture of a snake and be on my way.

I disagree with that sentiment on two points.

A. Look up Hans Hermann-Hoppe. He is a libertarian who still calls for strict immigration standards and allows communes of racial purity. Just like Socialism, liberalism, and conservatism, there are many schools of libertarian thought and he is one of them.

B. Within the libertarian society, knowing full well the propensity for degenerate races to seek out more catering welfare states, they will not find such sympathy. There will be no safety net or oppertunity to take advantage of the system. They work, create, or starve, and it may not work 100% (nothing does) but it will weed out many foreigners and prevent this white genocide.

That said I am very capable of seeing beyond the immediate, in fact I am even more capable then the average conservative or liberal which is why I'm libertarian, but I see no need to look beyond myself. I never signed a contract saying every other cunt born on the same land as me was my responsibility and that I had to babysit them, but in that same vein I don't expect them to cater to me either. What's the issue there?
>>
>>75593165
Continued...
I think that despite the low efficiency of the wealth transfer, I believe there are some extremes of wealth and poverty for which even forced transfer would improve total utility and provide positive feedbacks.

2. The non-agression principle is a wish.
It's an immature, adolescent wish in the same way that 'everybody is equal' or 'communism can work while people still have to' is. Aggression is a fact of nature. We see it used all over the animal kingdom. Humans being opportunistic rather than moral creatures by nature will and do use force against others when there is an advantage to be gained by doing so. The idea that people will ever stop doing this is (even if their parents stop spanking them) silly.

So, for the time being, we need a military and police force. While the police are an unaccountable criminal tyranny in many places, they are still nominally bound by laws and reliant on public goodwill. In a pure libertarian world, there would be tremendous incentive for private security forces to become monopolies in certain areas. If allowed to succeed, they would become small despotic states. I find that idea to be pretty repulsive.

pretty much all of them are 1) either children who don't like being told what to do by school/university/their mum or 2) pedophiles, other disgusting degenerates who just want to be degenerates and disguise it with the veneer of a simplistic ideology which is inconsistent and could be BTFO by any retarded marxist who understands the symbiotic relationship of the state/organised violence with the emergence of private property.

Hey, good news for you my friend, a reminder that libertarianism is not anarchism. Again, they are not the same thing. It is a minarchist ideology. Military? Check, there is one. Police force? You betcha, no worries about hiring mercenaries and all those other silly memes about libertarianism. In fact, some proponents of libertariansm like Murray Rothbard (I believe he was the one) even called for a large and aggressive police force. There are little laws to be broken, so those that ARE, will be punished with swiftness and force. Seems reasonable right?
>>
>>75592525
Yes, and it's really quite simple. Competition. People would prefer not to work for monstrous corporations or to buy their goods, thus corporations would need to treat their employees well unless they wish to risk high turnover.

If other nations can provide cheaper labor, then those in the current economy will be forced into other roles. To do these less efficient roles themselves leaves everyone worse off there is a better allocation of labor than doing them in the current nation hence the price of wages. E.g., the wages of a first worlder are more valuable than the first. To have them digging ditches is a waste of their more valuable labor.

As for open immigration, it would not really matter. Without subsidization from government, the new laborers would demand the same living wages as the old.

>But I want my white nation

This is even more simple. Don't buy from these companies, do not work for these companies. You can actually start inherently racist businesses that will be profitable if you can convince people that this is important enough to pay more for a finished product or service. E.g., if I wanted to start a QT 3.14 Aryan Nanny service, I could demand higher prices for my nannies on the basis of their Aryan-ess rather than on their cheap as fuck Mexican-ness. Assuming the government has no role in discrimination hiring.

>But people won't buy my racist products

Then you're either not marketing well enough, or there is simply not market or demand for what you're selling. At which point, reevaluate.

well at least you don't sound like a kike shill like most libertarians. i am aware of hoppe, though he is very much the exception. i disagree that simply disallowing welfare will stop immigration, this is a meme, they will still come, and the corporate interests represented in the entertainment industry, academia etc promoting "multiculturalism" "tolerance" will still be prevalent in a society where everyone is in everyone's pocket.

I see where your concerns are (and like I said in my original post, I went through an edgy Nat-Soc Nazi faze and read both mein kampf and "inside the Third Reich" by albert speer so I know what the issue is and sympathize with it) and I do think that problem of racemixing and multicuturalism would be heavily reduced. Welfares effect on immigration is not a "meme" as you put it, the effects would be seen to some significance, given situations like that in Europe where you have economic migrants coming in the millions seeking safety nets and free education/healthcare oppertunities. The only ones that would be coming would be those that are willing to work or contribute in the first place. So, like water in a filter, we're whittling down the number. What do we do with the workers? A few things.

>Stricter immigration policy to focus on white Europeans
>No anti-racist government legislation to arrest racist persons and communities
>No LGBT/multi-cul. government agenda

As well as a bevy of other things. The society falls on the back of individuals, and as nature intended, most individuals are racist and tribal. Minorities will find little tolerance or sympathy.

They probably will tolerate lower standards of living, but those standards must inherently be livable.

So, here is the deal as flat as possible. To achieve better standards of living than what is considered base livable, a few things will have to happen

>Unionization/Collective bargaining
Essentially artificially raised wages with mutual interest involved.
>Fordism
This is one of the more interesting ideas that tends to go by the wayside. If a corporation wants to get the most productivity out of its workers, it must stand for their happiness, health and interests.

For instance, a company notices that alcoholism is a common problem, therefore offers rehab programs to protect higher employees that are hard to replace, fire lower end employees and will refuse to hire alcoholics in the future.

Or companies may notice that due to family issues employees take more sick days or leave days, and thus the corporation has a vested interest in promoting good family values.

>Where the fuck has this ever happened?
Most early schools were started by corporations as their employees were too uneducated to do their jobs well. Fordism was alive and will with many neighborhoods completely company owned; see Pullman in Chicago.

>Muh shitskins
An eventual assumption in a completely free market is that the market will become a huge amount of independent buyers versus a huge amount independent sellers as every product has to become more niche to appeal.

If you don't want to deal with shitskins, don't sell to them. Don't buy from companies that use shitskin labor. Don't hire shitskin employees.

>at least you don't have big government saying you can't fuck kindergarten prostitutes whilst being strung out on heroin right chiam?

But Schlomo, big government is not only restricting the kindergarten prostitution and heroin markets, but also subsidizing corporations that can now import shitskin labor that you are paying for.
>>
>>75594105
>Competition. People would prefer not to work for monstrous corporations or to buy their goods, thus corporations would need to treat their employees well unless they wish to risk high turnover.
Except that isn't what happens, we have perfect historical examples of unregulated capitalism playing out across the west in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Success and wealth consolidated toward a handful of extremely powerful individuals or entities, who quickly realized that colluding was far more profitable than competing. There would be little to no competition between the biggest corporate entities in a libertarian society, and no competition would ever be allowed to arise either.

>If other nations can provide cheaper labor, then those in the current economy will be forced into other roles. To do these less efficient roles themselves leaves everyone worse off there is a better allocation of labor than doing them in the current nation hence the price of wages.
Are you suggesting that large scale outsourcing won't happen, because someone who loses their job due to outsourcing must be given another which they will be less efficient at thus it is detrimental to the economy at large? If so this is the absolute most retarded notion I've ever seen posted on this board.

>Without subsidization from government, the new laborers would demand the same living wages as the old.
Nevermind, this one might be even more retarded. They won't demand anything, immigrants from third world shitholes are used to working for pennies an hour. They idea of making a dollar or two and hour would be mindblowing to them. If they ever demanded more, they would just be canned and replaced by some other third worlder who didn't.

But that's really the heart of it. If there are no barriers to entry or exist, then there would be tons of new players trying to get into the market constantly. For instance, I could sell my NO-JEWS-INVOLVED hummus for a higher market price because there are no Jews involved.

Major trusts only became issues due to limited resources and barriers to entry presented by the government.

I'm saying outsourcing is infact GOOD for everyone. If your can be done effectively for less money, then it should not exist as it currently does; it is inherently inefficient.

>But I'll be unemployed
Then you need to either convince those who hire you that your labor is worth its cost, start a new enterprise, or starve for being useless.

>Nevermind, this one might be even more retarded.

>People won't demand a wage they can live on

Like, you might argue that they're used to living on quality Haitian mud-cakes, but a living wage is defined by actually being livable.

Is not in either the companies interest, it's quite hard to sell "WORK FOR US, YOU'LL FUCKING STARVE" to workers, nor in workers interest to work a non-living wage.

I can think of 3 options

>It doesn't, and there will be (I assume) a slight decrease in travel time, efficiency, gas consumption, and/or productivity (but I emphasize slight)

>Any major business or collection of businesses along the route realize these are issues that could effect them and pay to have it solved through repaving

>The local community that the road is within gets together and decides to fix it themselves or pays a labor group to do it

Either way, I don't know why anybody assumes the government is needed to fix it. Want to know where the money typically goes in infrastructure projects like Obamas billion dollar project in 2013? They go to labor union/leaders, and a small amount goes to fixing a small chunk, which by itself takes years and is inefficient in the long run.

So as far as cost-benefit analysis is concerned, the road does not need to be fixed or will be fixes by a local organization.

Except there are huge barriers to entry in an unregulated market, the interests of the current big players in said market. The big corporate entities would either offer to buy you out, or price fix you out of existence. No competition will arise.

>Major trusts only became issues due to limited resources and barriers to entry presented by the government.
Really? Then why did these only ever form during times with little to no government regulation?

>I'm saying outsourcing is infact GOOD for everyone. If your can be done effectively for less money, then it should not exist as it currently does; it is inherently inefficient.
No, its only good for people willing to work for less and those who get to enjoy the higher profit margins.

Completely impossible in an unregulated global market. It doesn't matter if you are the greatest employee in the world, there will always be some random third worlder willing to do the same work for a fraction of the cost who can do a passable enough job. Quality doesn't boost profitability enough to matter in this day and age.

>Like, you might argue that they're used to living on quality Haitian mud-cakes, but a living wage is defined by actually being livable.
What they consider a living wage is enough to buy food, they are used to living in complete squalor. A librarian society won't bring them up to our level, it will drive living standards down toward theirs. A few dollars an hour becomes the new living wage.

Humans don't notice "slight" decreases in any of those things.
It's super easy to separate people from there money and then do at shit job (e.g. multi-year contracts that advertise as being a deal to good to refuse). Also finding someone to pave roads is not done frequently so the best man for the job isn't likely to be hired.

The last solution is a form of local government. I really, really hope you're not one of the thousands I have seen make the mistake of equating libertarianism with anarchism, because it is not. There is a government in a libertarian society, daily and friendly reminder. Above all, states rights and even moreso local rights are the most prioritized, and if a community decides to donate money (without coercion) towards the repairs, they can do so without any harm. So your criticism isn't an argument in that regard.

If humans don't notice slight decreases or don't care enough to solve the issue, then it is not an issue. They aren't perceiving any problem with the road other then aesthetics and are satisfied with their community in that regard, so there is no further issue.

What is an issue, however, is the government saying that they DO in fact have an issue with it, and are proposing to forefully spend both his money and his neighbors money on it, when they don't want it spent on that.

So the government spends it, and guess what? Like normal, the infrastructure project is never completed, or it takes 5 years, and billions of dollars were thrown at it, even though nobody had an issue with it in the first place. It sounds like we're living in the twilight zone, don't you think?

>No competition will arise.
Let's say that this is true. That corporations can produce infinitely cheap, an infinitude of goods for every possibility of infinitely good quality simultaneously. If there were true, you have hit utopia post scarcity; may god have mercy on your soul. Until this is true, there is simply a market for different, for quality, or for niche. Ikea does in some way compete with Japanese waifu pillows, but to steer production to it with their large size would be inefficient.
>Really? Then why did these only ever form during times with little to no government regulation?
Because of limited resources, and barriers to entry. If I cannot mine my land because the mineral rights belong to the government, I cannot compete with a larger mining corporation.

Standard oil was a big one because no one knew of the value of oil before the wells were mostly dug.
>Poor people/ higher profit margins.
No, it really isn't. The ability to produce more at lower costs does mean that there is more production. This thus frees people from doing inefficient tasks to better utilize their labor. This is akin to saying that a plowman is better than an electric plow because it employs a person while being inefficient; the plowman must find a new career, and society benefits as a whole from more production from less inputs.

> Quality doesn't boost profitability enough to matter in this day and age.

I completely disagree. Quality and luxury goods do infact continue to exist simply because quality is often valued. In a market, if everyone simply produced lowest sellable quality, those that sold above will create profit. If you cannot convince someone that your labor is worth paying for the rate you demand, or the price of the good you sell, then unfortunately it is not.

>What they consider a living wage is enough to buy food, A few dollars an hour becomes the new living wage.

Yes, if you can survive on it, it is infact a living wage. Hence living.

Makes sense. Think of the silk road, it drove up profits and gave people incentives to visit China and all the places in between. It gave way to commerce and productivity, as well as job growth and a bevy of other benefits. I can guarantee, as a rational and self-interested private entity, if a businessman, business, corporation, or community wanted to put money towards fixing a road because it would benefit them like the silk road, who is to say they wouldn't fix the fucking road? If they don't want to, then it's not a significant issue, and the "muh roads" meme is irrelevant in the first place.

I never went balls deep into Libertarianism.

I never believed in the social aspect or the NAP as some philosophical concept. I also never agreed with open borders.

I did and still do believe in economic liberty (until the point where it degenerates the culture) and for a long time I was against tariffs/protectionism UNTIL I studied the economic history of the USA. Turns out protectionism is the best way to keep the wealth generated by the free market inside the company and to further cultivate it.

This is why I like trump. He has Traditional American economic policies.

Back in '08 and '12, the left had yet to swing to the radical end it has now in Europe and America. The greatest threat to the constitution was an overreaching federal government here in the states, and Libertarianism was the path to counteract it.

While Federal overreach in state and local issues is still a major problem, we now have a greater problem with the way the left is hijacking it to their own ends, in an effort to gain total control over the electorate and have a one party system backed by a wave of immigrants, leeches, and cucks.

Trump is the way to counteract this development at this time. Only once we reclaim our nation can we begin to solve its issues, however there won't be a nation left to save at this point if we allow ourselves to continue down this path.

Like I just said here, if the road (as a means to access one place to the next) is truly an issue, it will be solved by someone who can see tangible, quantitative benefits from the repairs. IF NOT, then why is it an issue in the first place? Alright, potholes slow you down. Are you missing maybe 1 minute a day of time on the road? Half a gallon of gas a year? These things can't be seen because they're insignificant, and with that logic, massive government projects that are historically inefficient and expensive should not be used to solve so pointless of an issue, get me?

Correct. Historically classical liberals fought for individual rights and freedoms and a shrinkage of government power. Then somewhere along the line the term was successfully demonized and the leaders who used the term "liberal" where actually tyrannical collectivists.

When I started realizing the libertarianism had a sacred cow: capitalism.

Wouldn't happen, the capacity for power within both the "crown" (government) and the military would be reduced drastically. Both are inherent to maintain feudalism. Peasants would have objectively more power in a libertarian society.

>You call common sense laws statism
>Common sense
Also subjective, what you call common sense some see as useless. Not an argument.

>There are no good arguments for libertarianism

>Efficiency
Government is inherently a middleman to a provider of a service. Very few end services are actually provided by the government itself.

Government that has paid employees must by necessity pay for these paid employees to live a wage they can agree upon. At this point, you have taken wealth from a large group of people, ran it through a first party, and gotten the results of only a portion of the wealth as some of it must go to maintaining the government. All services middleman'd by the government will inherently be less efficient than a free market system that is directly customer-> provider thus the state should be in charge of as few services as possible.

>Liberty
The other part of the above is that the government as a middleman has a captive market; a government must have a monopoly of governing its territory to be sovereign. So, not only are you receiving less efficient services, but you are forced to buy them. Not only that, but you are forced to buy them in terms the government sets with money it creates; the government essentially is a very large company store in this sense. There is no opt out, and even a government with the best of intentions has the apparatus to remove your life and livlihood as it depends on this apparatus to maintain sovereignty.

These are really the best on hand arguments for a libertarian/classically liberal/minarchist government.

>>75603134
This is pretty much the strongest counter argument against a minarchist state. All the economic efficiency and freedom in the world won't matter if neighboring states simply take over with force. To actually have a free society in a world without free societies, the society must be able to protect its own sovereignty.

>>75603464

This is another good one. Courts are a natural byproduct of contracts and to have any sort of guarantee of anything the court must be impartial.

>>
>>75604281
There is more to it then that. Feudalism also requires a system of contracting for military service in order to gain land, as well as dependence on higher classes for wealth. All of this is guaranteed by the government. This is statism. Libertarians have no implied obligations to anyone but yourself. Land can be personally bought, contracts are voluntary. There is no obligation towards the government or the upper classes (nobles/vassals).

government ownership of public goods stops price gouging monopolies from forming

That's a subjective opinion, not an argument. If you review each policy you will find that they are supported historically and statistically, even if it is not stringent with morality or ethical guidelines, it is the most rational/objective.

Then there's no such thing as stability in society, since anyone can use force at any moment, voiding any concept of monopoly in regard to its use.
>>
>>75604613
>government ownership of public goods stops price gouging monopolies from forming

In a completely free market, monopolies are not possible. There are infinite reasons to purchase other goods, to enter new markets, or to leave markets.

>That's what stops random bands of outlaws trying to takeover territory
>Courts are meaningless without force

Yes, these are my points against libertarianism/minarchism, and really the strongest points against.

A government that is so ineffectual it cannot maintain its sovereignty is of no help to anyone when it is forced into conflict.

I think that the use of philosophical terms makes language more concise. Otherwise, I might go on describing the same thing with different words.

It is also useful to point out the use of fallacies, so that readers can immediately recognize spam/meme/shill posts.

Yep, that and enforcing contracts via court systems is about the only things I can think of. I've read some stuff on private courts but wasn't convinced

Also, i wouldn't rule out a group being able to muster a military voluntarily. A free society will inevitably create much tighter social cohesion.

It's quite a hard sell to an individualist. You could have something like religious courts, or social courts, but realistically you can't enforce their laws. Suppose you can refuse to hear their cases until you abide by their rules, but that's not a very satisfying compromise.

>Also, i wouldn't rule out a group being able to muster a military voluntarily. A free society will inevitably create much tighter social cohesion.

To be honest, I have strong doubts about a professional military beating a huge armed nation, but let's say they don't want the nation, but a portion. Who is to stop them?

With this in mind, only a world of free states would create any sort of political equilibrium.
>>
>>75604935
I wonder what the state was doing?

What happened after that?

>>75605110
I think there's less "stability" in the world in which people think one group can do whatever they like and no one else can than in the world where people realize everyone is just as human as they are.

I bet if you were to take a poll of conservatives, libertarians, and liberals, libertarians would be the most likely to have read that book. Certainly, they have higher probability knowledge and verbal reasoning abilities (Karl 2014), so one would think that those properties would translate into having read this particular book.
