Dr. Terrigan...do you think these people understand that, and here I try my best to exercise maturity, that if everyone makes the same fuck wages it doesn't matter if you have one fuck dollar or a fuck million? But here I am being rhetorical. Truth of the matter, one of these egalitarians was recently talking with me about Egypt, and through the

"I assure you that the economic domination will be surpass worlwidely by the ones you call "poor" and "unable to take care of themselves". That day, they will become able to take care of themselves and will no more be poor.emphasis mine" There it is, the gun to our heads. Thanks for showing your true colors. Yes, but it's

The greatest part of the whole social anarchism/market anarchism debate is that it is a null point. If at any point there ever is a revolution that ends government completely, both systems posit that they are natural occurrences. Ergo, we will either fall into line as commune-dwellers, of our own volition, or we will become a society of free trade,

People are individuals with different minds. You are trying to understand something that has no base at which to be understood. You ask what significance the silence of the citizens has. I say the impossibility of understanding it is significant. But I can not prove significance, which is the point I'm trying to get across in all of this. Which

The ability to connect the dots is something I respect in my fellow beings. Satisfactory. Highly satisfactory.

Completely correct in such thinking. But we have to make the assumption of all of this first. This is the stalemate point of the argument, as you can not prove that clever entrepreneurs will not devise these models on their own, disregarding the tenets of the Austrian school, and I cannot, equally, prove that they will. Empirically, I can claim that

Nah, we're done with that. To claim to have the best argument against something and then offer nothing but a loosely-termed, unfinished analogy, only to wax disillusionment when people talk past each other, is bush-league.

Hi guys, I'm a regular from Le Québecois Libre (Martin Masse's Libertarian site). Union Révolte was a "regular" on our site for a while. Debating with this person is useless. (No worries, friend. I assure you this person is nobody of any noteworthiness to myself. I simply enjoy watching the logically defunct thrash about

Basically, I'm saying that the Austrians' reluctance to equate different individuals' value scales in certain places, coupled with their reluctance to (as a temporary measure) numerically measure utilities makes it impossible for them to create certain types of economic models which, despite the (possibly bad) assumptions going into them

Drew Brando, my basic thought on Direct Democracy, if I understand the term correctly, is that it is fundamentally unworkable due to the incentives it creates. (But its DEMOCRACY! Anyone who says democracy is bad is just wrong! Automatically!) First, in a world with billions of people, direct democracy can't possibly work without significant division
