  • None of these even sound like arguments against anarcho-capitalism to me. Although I can't be sure about Smith's quote, as it seemed to be voiced by a toothless stroke victim. I could just as easily post a video of "The Gettysburg Address" and claim it to be a refutation of this video.

  • I think you should say "opine against" rather than "refute"

    since they are basically just saying "I think this should happen"

  • Wow, I didn't know that sound recording was around when these guys were alive. Unless the guy who made the video just made the voices himself, no that would be stupid.

  • why do the narrators sound like retards?

  • cool video, so classical liberals of those days feared the people (mob rule) more than tyrany. What a nice combination would they find mass democracy to be.

  • These are not refutations these are blind, meaningless statements of opinion.

  • John Jay was a FOOL. Owners of property are no different than anyone else. Wealth should not give anyone any more liberty, rights or freedoms than the poorest among us.

  • These are all great arguments against Anarchism (Anarcho-capitalism that is).

    The problem is that they will need to be adjusted in order to bring out what anarcho-capitalist do not hear in them.

    Basically, anarchism and anarcho-capitalism lead to war. Because without the state, society would be too loosely organized and unprepaired against a foreign invador.

    Anarchism and anarchocapitalism may also lead to mob war, between the different entities of private police forces.

  • Did you do these voices. Fuck they're annoying. If Adam Smith talked like that, it's a good thing he wrote books and they didn't have tape recorders back then.

  • So the government's purpose is to ensure that the rich can continue to oppress the poor?

  • I'm against anarcho-capitalism, but this video was shit.
