hence the trade war
I think that's where we agree as a whole.. fiat currency is diabolical .
but there IS a legitamate argument for it; liquidity
Can't work towards either ideal in this weather.
there has to be enough of it for everyone to be able to participate in the system
I'm saying ancaps would make it worse but all you want to tell me is that people are benevolent and would never do that because.... I dunno.... Competition for monopolies to destroy?
and the more the population grows, the more deflation a non-fiat would see
ancaps wouldn't be able to seperate security from trade
To be clear I leverage towards mixed. Monopolies are bad. AnCap has no system to prevent that.
and thus those with the guns would just TAKE rather than trade
Of course I'm also a fan of more decentralized control.
current govs seperate those who apply force from the incentive to imply force
Stronger local govt's is good because reactions are a local matter.
And federal should be external focused.
cops don't get paid based on how many people they arrest or how badass the criminals they take down ar
So things like the trade war, border security and so on is the intended focus for the feds.
And to hold the states to the Constitution.
Oh, and making sure interstate interactions are conducted fairly.
govt is ALWAYS best when the decsion powwe is focused on the level of the avg person
constitution? we haven't followed it in decades
If not more than a century.
"Power shalll rest with the States and only that authority which IT chooses shall be delegated to the Federal gov"
Ayup.
more than a century at least
The only problem was that chattel slavery would be permissible.
but, now the Federal Gov uses leverage to FORCE the states to do what they want and render them impotent
Yeah it's a problem but I don't think dissolving the fed is a good idea
Which is bad for the individual... and for commerce.
well, if we let the South LEAVE, we wouldn't have to DEAL with thiis shit
Also, that's something that AnCap doesn't work around either.
But "From sea to shining sea"!
both the Dems and the Race-baiters would have killed each other long ago before joining sides
@Laucivol nice in theory but in practice federal governments always overstep their bounds and grow wildly out of control, no constitution prevents this
of course, that is why 'constant vigilance'
that is also in the design
But *not* having it means that the corporations still over reach.
the gov only is as good as the PEOPLE demand
and if you want to know the problem, go find a mirror
It's certainly a pickle.
@SageTheory you have to disolve all government
