PayPal founder Peter Thiel has spent $1.25 million to help create libertarian islands in international waters. No government rules or regulations interfering with freedom, just the invisible hand of the free market! Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian of The Young Turks discuss.

  • Libertarians don't believe in no rules. It's about do what you want as long as you don't interfere with anyone else's ability to do whatever they want. It is the non-aggression principle. It is voluntary cooperation based on solid property rights. It is still wrong to hurt other people or their property physically or financially. It is a simple and honest way to live.

  • stupid bitch... "no rules"

  • @TheWhiteDreamsOfLife Actually, Anarchism doesn't mean no rules either. It just means "without rulers". What they're talking about is chaos.

  • they're confusing anarchism with libertarianism.

  • "There are quite a lot of people who think it's not possible," Thiel said at a Seasteading Institute Conference in 2009, according to Details. "That's a good thing. We don't need to really worry about those people very much, because since they don't think it's possible they won't take us very seriously. And they will not actually try to stop us until it's too late."

  • wow.....thats all i can say, truly. 

  • @r29 that's a fantasy view, but you're welcome to it.

  • @timcb001

    I agree...I really like TYT, but their arguments were weak on this one.

  • @etzel33 it took only 15 years for free market to make computers, once a something only millionaires can afford, affordable for everyone. I think it shouldn't take very long for the government industry to become cheaper
