@LeBaronDePropane Free market capitalism results in the single mom in the ghetto starting a hair braiding business in her living room without the government saying that you have to buy expensive permits or a storefront (thus allowing her to make enough money to get out of the ghetto!). Free market capitalism results in the guy who gets laid off from his job to start his own business without being squashed by regulations lobbied for by corporations.

Personally, I think Obama was elected so there wouldn't have been rioting over O.J.Simpson being jailed.

Im an anarcho-libertarian, but im also educated enough to confirm what you are here pointing out. China is State-Capitalism. The state is the only corporation and the inhabitants are the slaves. The workers have no rights and all kind of union acitvity is crushed. Sovjet was an amalgam of different directions, but after Trotskij was chased and Stalin took over, it too became fascist.

Still, I dont want a communist society. Im for property, autonomy & market.

Thats why he should pick Jesse Ventura as VP. The bastards can't even start to handle him. At least they can deal with gentleman Paul and would never have Ventura just a heartbeat away from Paul - thats why Ventura is his best life insurance.

I went from Anarcho-Syndicalism to Anarcho-Libertarianism thanks to Paul and the philosophy of Liberty. Great argument - I couldn't agree with you more!

I'm sure Wrong Paul's supporters are some of the "nicest" white supremacists out there.

Wrong Paul may be telling the truth as he sees it, but he cherry picks the facts he uses to support that truth. He loves to point out the economic side of black slavery ending in Europe, but he wont go near the regulated economic policies that bailed out Iceland and other countries in Europe because enforced ethical behavior is too much like violence to libertarians.

That's not respectable behavior.
