  • I'm afraid you failed to deliver on your promise in the title by a whopping 9140%. You only argued against 5 arguments against anarchy as opposed to 457.

    Seriously though great video.

  • haha well put!

  • I don't do this any more, if that helps.

  • My best rational arguments tend not to surface in youtube comments... but just to take a stab at it... Under a free market type of anarchy how would the property rights which are the entire basis of capitalism be enforced? If I'm poor and you're rich and I want to take all of your stuff, who's going to stop me? If the answer is private security firms, then what is to prevent these firms from being used abusively?

  • Excellent questions of course, I take my stab at answering them in my podcasts, on my web site, try the first few if you like at freedomainradio*com

  • @thescarybox Mental health issues are very much connected to our society as a whole and the environment we grow up in. I.e if you're abused as a child there is a chance you might become a rapist, murderer or can't trust other people. So we must recognize that the "criminally insane" are insane for a reason. However, I would not exclude the possibility that a small small percentage of people can be born with a deficiency but then we should try to help them along so we can all prosper.

  • @thescarybox So... You're saying you're not scared at all of getting mugged right now? Wow, please let me know where you live so I can move there, it sounds awesome. Please ask yourself; What does create crimes? You might think of a thousand things but there is a very simple answer; LAWS. If there are no laws by definition there are no criminals, however unethical or immoral behavior can still occur which I think we should create a system where everyone defends everyones rights. Anar-Syndicalism

  • @godkingofthepunks

    Of course I can be free. With authority I can be free to leave my house without the fear of being mugged by every crazy asshole on the street. I can also be free to exercise my right to compensation if in fact one of those crazy assholes do attack me.

    With anarchy you're free alright. Free to live in fear, not of the government, but everybody around you.

    Speaking of crazy assholes, what would happen to places like asylums for the criminally insane? Oh well, no govt funds.

  • @misiobear77

    that is the most retarded argument i have ever heard in my life.

    if you have children or grandchildren, murder them all and then commit suicide and prevent your genes from plaguing the world

  • nice video...i agree with MOSTLY everything u said like poverty for example...but again somethings i dont agree with you

  • Isn't it funny that the pampered life that the "state" helps provide, is the only place where the anarchist free market capitalists exists? Unless every state is abolished at once, any anarchist state would be at the mercy of any state that still existed. What the state/religion/ideology is great at is creating a mass of people that can be directed, and their force directed at others. Anarchy will create division, and division has been how every conquered people was defeated.

  • There is no argument against being free !

    How can you be free without Anarchy ? Do you

    think that you can be free

    under authority ? Without

    Anarchy by definition you

    would be ruled and it is obvious that to be free you cant have people rule you !
