Hey! I thought it would be interesting to talk/debate/pontificate about anarcho-capitalism, as well as discuss related topics, over Skype. If you're interested, please add me: grauss1357

Archy = man's systems of rule

Capitalism is a manmade system of rules.

Anarchocapitalism is an oxymoron.

Hi, apocaloptimisto. Please select any three rules from the capitalism rulebook and post them. Random samples are fine; I just don't know the rules myself and am interested in examples of what the rules may look like.

1. Once must aquire more than they need in order to trade. Otherwise known as hoarding.
2. That excess must be defended using force, because imbalance of resource distribution creates greed and jealousy.
3. Currency, an easily corruptible idea that enables and anonymizes the activitys of psychopaths, must be used to facilitate trade.

The fed has rules.
The SEC has rules.
The IRS has rules.
The IMF and World Bank have rules.
Imdividual banks have rules.
Contracts are documents stating rules.
All commercial activity is subject to UCC code.
All of these rules are enforced at gunpoint.

And don't try the, "but we don't have capitalism. We have fascism." argument because fascism is a natural result of capitalism due to the fact that people must be hired to protect assets.

I could go on but I think I've made my point.
