LOLbertarianism isn't feasible. Normies cannot cope with full freedom.

Even if you're not NEET, why would want to regress to a society where you have to pay "protection money" to private thugs. That's worse than just paying taxes.

Why would you want to live in a world here there's no government to inspect and control how much recycled feces is inside of your microwave burrito?

>>28153937
libertarians believe that you will pay someone else to inspect your burrito and that they will definitely not be bribed by the burrito company because you're paying someone to vet the inspection company who will definitely not be bribed by the vetting company because you are paying a different inspection company et al

No I don't think it's possible really.

Not trying to derail thread but... I think ideally:

Universal suffrage should only exist at the level of local government.

Representation at the National tier should be restricted to property owners and members of the military.

Owning property or a company that conducts business in foreign countries should disqualify all levels of voting.

Those who can vote in national elections ought to be required to have a family member in the armed forces.

All things economic should be fair game.

Libertarianism is a cancerous ideology created by the Jews that seeks to erode all morality and ethical restrictions in society under the guise of ultimate "freedom". This would allow them to jew everyone without any restrictions via ultra capitalism.

In reality a libertarian society would have structure, and the vats majority of people would be made slaves to a small portion of the upper class (the Jews and their minions). libertarianism is just another term for corporate feudalism.


The founders of most forms of libertarian thought were jews or tools of the jews and it's major body of adherents are neck-beard shut-ins, retarded psuedo-christian hicks, and spoiled suburban 15 year olds. All of whom, need to be sent to the gulag.

>>28153638

The state is a corporation that managed to monopolise all the important markets and citizens are its shareholders, employees and renters of its property.

Austrians don't give the psychological school the time of day. They know it's a fraud. If you remove the privileges of the state to regulate and direct economic activity the state will not survive. Then we are back to lawlessness and are vulnerable to some real tyrants. Instead of trying to kill it off, people should focus their energies on guiding the state in the right direction. The rule of law acknowledges the rule of the majority, but the rights of minorities are guaranteed under law. Libertarianism, for all its talk of liberty and volunteerism, cannot promise the same.

>>28156409
free education and heathcare and money and food are different because someone has to pay for those. I can exercise my right to free speech without costing anyone else any money.

How is it wrong anyways? Its exclusive because it doesn't necessarily include someone else in it's claim. Free speech doesn't require anyone else to participate for you to have free speech. Free education necessarily requires someone else. It's exclusive in that it is a claim that can exclusively apply to you. Can't believe I actually had to explain this.

you're deliberately misunderstanding what words mean.

You don't have a right to shit on my lawn because it's my property and I get the exclusive right to say what happens on my property.

My right to say what I want is not exclusive in the sense of only I can say what I want, it's exclusive in only I get to determine what I do or don't say. Neither you nor anyone else get to tell me what I have to say or tell me I can't say something. That's how its exclusive.
