what if they biased their decision on the fact that they would have bad publicity if they gave the opposite decision?

Casey Anthony might not have had a fair trial in an anarchy.

[Wesker1982]

@darris321 The bad publicity of being biased would be a greater risk. And if you think courts might be corrupt, the risk and danger is greatly amplified if you monopolize them.

Libertarian free markets don't rely on a change of human nature. In fact, freedom has the greatest chance of keeping the less desirable actions of man in check.

Rothbard is so awesome!

@natritious1 my pleasure. :-)

@Wesker1982 thanks very much for pointing me in the right direction! :)

@Wesker1982 by Walter Block. Read those articles and then think about this company.

[Wesker1982]

@natritious1 the government subsidies are bad by themselves, but these these subsidies are being used to produce the weapons that murder innocent people, correct? I am not familiar with this company, only knowing what I just read on google, but it looks like they are a major part of the military industrial complex. But since I don't know much about them, I would refer you to two articles: "Living in a State-Run World" by Murray Rothbard, and "May a Libertarian Take Money from the Government"

[natritious1]

@natritious1 I know about the gov. subsidies, but they do operate in the marketplace

I was offered a high paying job at Northrop Grumman by a family member. I'm thinking of accepting.... I'm libertarian. Would this be immoral in your opinion?

[darris321]

@Wesker1982 .... publicity= more business, probably.

Some courts would be run judge judy style lol

[darris321]

@Wesker1982 I disagree. Did you see the jurors being put under police protection? Any court that found this woman who was so passionately held as "obviously" guilty by the public would lose its favor with the people because they would see it as a terrible court.

However, one of the problems we have with the state is that they are required to let journalists in. I think cases wouldn't get as much publicity if the court didn't let them in- but on the flip side again, publicity=....
