  • Do watch factories sprout out of the ground like trees? if not, how do they come to exist? This vid suffers from a cartoonish view of the world that does not take into account risk or value or other economic concepts.

  • @JasonDamisch you see scarface? if you've got a nice car, and a cuban hit-squad wants it, it's theirs. Your gun can't shoot 6 people at once.

  • Property is MY stuff. I don't need to rely on government coercion to protect it either, I can use my own guns to kill anybody who tries to take it away from me.

  • Please, stop saying "Anarchist want" and "Anarchist believe" . You don't understand Anarchism. You always confound it with Marxism. You're only giving a bad name to Anarchism.

  • is that anyone experienced the live in a country without state(goverment).if non.please dont write ur Nostradamus thinking.

  • Anarchism is collectivism or socialism in disguise. It pretends to be an anti-force philosophy because it has a utopian view of human beings. Government exists to protect individuals' rights to their lives, liberty, and property. If there was no government, people would face no consequences for stealing, enslaving, and murdering other people. Everything would turn to mob rule.

  • @velero24 That's exactly my point! If there are no benefits to be gained, NOBODY would be willing to help ANYBODY. As sad as this is, human nature demands that in order to give someone something, we need something back in return. It does us no good to try and ignore this "crooked" aspect of humans, but rather we should embrace and understand that people need incentives. I'm all for people organizing themselves, but what you advocate is collectivism, which would leave society less free.

  • I'm LOVING THIS!!! Very well organized text, awesome music! I LIKE!

  • @velero24 @velero24 Earlier you just said if someone wants something in the communist society they have to go produce it themselves. If everything you own must be produced yourself here will be less division of labor and more generalization of skills leading to inferior goods.

  • @velero24 Solidarity just means uniting under one goal. If a bunch of people unite to beat, steal, kill they are acting in solidarity.

    Well, I would agree that what is good or bad is purely opinion.

    Selfishness is not only negative. Selfishness can be good and bad. What also matters is good or bad to whom?
