This is one of your best videos imo

@ott0Kitam thank you

So, you are basically saying that it is better to let corporations run free than to be subjected at least a bit by the government?, not everybody is corrupt at the government, what makes you think the corps won't agree to set the price of goods and give you a false sense of a non monopoly, how a DRO will protect us from it?. I consider myself anarchist, but I'm still trying to find a model of anarchy that will work in a country taking into account that the rest of the world may not be anarchist.

I would love to see you in a debate with noam chomsky. Libertarian Socialism vs. Libertarian Capitalism.

@crud4 Wealth is not theft. The money that a person earns is compensation for the time a person takes out of their own life to work for others. Some people are just far better at leveraging the worth of their time and some just work alot. Neither of these things implies dominance or control over others. Actually, it is quite the contrary, every person who works to earn money and wealth is dependant upon the person or people that he works for, in the case of the businessman it is his consumers.

@dlstb My goal in life isnt to accumulate wealth and dominate/control others in the process. Sorry.

@GoldRainGirl The bonobo is canibalistic and a sexual predator, good choice. Homo saiens have not existed for a half million years and even if they had and they were nomads, that doesn't make it right to assume that the way of life that the dead assumed should be the way that the living MUST live. As Thomas Paine said, the dead can hold no stock in the living. Your argument is entirely invalid because it enslaves us to our ancestors lifestyles.

[GoldRainGirl]

@dlstb I'm based on fact, anthropological fact. The closest primate to the human in behavior is the bonobo which differs tremendously from great apes. You talked about state of nature - humans live for the majority of the half a million years the species has existed as nomads. That's the state of nature we evolved in.

@crud4 Personally, I think you sound like a whining toddler who is mad because he doesn't have the same toys as his play mate. If you had worked your whole life to amass a fortune and created a new industry or started a corporation, you wouldn't speak the way that you do. Moreover, people like you won't be happy until either there is no personal property beyond what a person can defend with a stick, or we all are given a set acreage at birth and not allowed to buy any more than that.
