Wtf
Libertarianism doesn't believe in copyright at all
Copyrights are a government institution
Well they do, since copyright are a protection for personal and intellectual property
A lot of libertarians Don't belive in a public police force either
Libertarians are as retardedy utopian as communists in many ways
intellectual property is similar to regular property
the main difference is that the former is reproducible and harder to defend
Except public police hasn't existed for most of human history
@Eccles False
Most libertarian critiques are grounded in realiry
Not many Libertarians believe in a Utopia
but i mean both are just a body that wields force barring you from doing something involving a certain thing
one is an idea and the other is a physical object
They don't propose anyway to achieve Utopia
They simply want more freedom
And i don't think anyone believes Freedom alone makes a place a Utopia
^
a lot of people have been tricked into thinking, economic freedom = personal freedom
When in reality economic freedom just causes your government to be bought out by corporations who have that global mindset. Then the private companies themselves can restrict freedom.
Usually that happens after the government restricts buisnesses giving those corporations effective oligopoly over industries
Well that is inevitable because the corporations use their wealth to achieve that.
A lot of people are iggnorant of positive and negative freedoms @UnScottable
There will always be the backdoor dealings
Correct
you could maybe ensure it with some sort of enlightened absolutist figure
An ultra free market prevents long term oligopolies from sustaining themselvse.
but that was tried in chile and it was pretty horrible
possibly but they will die eventually @Death in June
or they could also be corrupted by wealth
well
generally an autocrat can't really be bought out, at least not by domestic powers
because they can take whatever they want barring a coup or revolution
There are other ways to get them though
such as blackmail
If you are referring to pinochett chille did pretty well, it went from the third lowest to seccond highest South/centel American gdp per capital during his tenure.
money is just one of the many ways it can go wrong... thats why i have an issue with entrusting things to one individual like that... <:thinking_clown:590855640268668928>
i don't think that's true
chile grew at a slightly below average rate for latin america
and the real income of most chileans actively shrunk over time
