I mean, I live in the most diverse city in the world, at the risk of sounding cliche have friends from all races (my two closest friends are from Ethiopia), judge people as individuals not based on race and believe strongly in equal rights for all people regardless of race. At the same time I...
It costs a lot of money to build those planes.
Boots on the ground do matter which is exactly why an archo capitalist state would be fucked. They can't draft soldiers like the government militaries can do. Not to mention they'll be able to afford more tanks and drone bomb the fuck out of those...
There will be more prosperity but voluntary donations can't compare to taking as much money as you want straight out of the pockets of the taxpayers.
They just declare that nation part of their government, enforce their laws, etc
I read wikipedia and it says it's a city, is it not? Can you explain the situation to me and why it's an example of how anarcho capitalist militaries work?
Please don't be condescending. We're people who agree with each other on almost everything and are debating the disagreements we do have...
I don't get your point here. Sure you can shoot down planes and sink ships. If anything that's going to hurt the militias, they can't afford to keep buying ships and planes. Sure they can shoot down the enemy's stuff but that's only after they've done a ton of damage and the taxpayer funded...
Don't be condescending.
I'm asking about this city in particular, what is the situation going on there, why did he post it as an example?
You can't compare the US occupation of Afghanistan to trying to take over an archo-capitalist state. If anything this would be in favor of my argument -...
That was back then when technology was limited and war was completely different as a result. Do you think a 2nd American revolution could really be successful in this day and age? The money you raise from voluntary donations won't compare to theft on a grand scale, good lucking affording fighter...
Don't they have the Afghan military defending them in some way? Explain the situation to me.
Regardless, that's a tiny city. Say China or the US wanted it - they could easily get it. It's just more trouble than it's worth so they don't bother. Now say you have a country as big and resource...
But libertarians believe the government shouldn't punish you for that because it's morally wrong to. Isn't god doing it morally wrong then too? Don't libertarians believe torture is morally wrong, isn't having people burn in hell for all eternity a sadistic form of torture? And if Christians...
So you would only end foreign aid to North Korea on the condition it's ended to everywhere else too? I'm against all foreign aid man but clearly there is a difference here.
Iran and North Korea are two completely different situations. They don't have nukes nor are they building any (though a country having nukes doesn't necessarily mean they're a threat at all like warmongers claim, Iran could get nuclear weapons and still wouldn't be a threat) , Iran doesn't have...
If you have no military then another country's government will take over your land and all of a sudden you're under control of a super tyrannial government. Civilian militas can't compete with organized taxpayer funded militaries.
Have Anarcho Capitalists never considered this?
