@Death in June wrong I'm talking about small communty laws enforced by private security

and you have more than one bosss

which means they could just become rogue armies

in AnCap there is no state

no accountability

It's a "one day" maybe sorta of ideal (AnCap).. but as things are?

Mob rule.

Got it

and what does one do on a 48hr op? <:hyperthink:462282519883284480>

with no state, then what stops those hired for security from TAKING rather than TRADING?

A lot of this sorta thing i settle on is/ought.

yeah and these small communities exist within states, yes?

why pay when you have alll the guns and superior skills to fight?

and the security operates within the territory of the state?

I mean if the security companies just occupied a local community and ruled over the local populace

who's going to stop em?

and are subject to the laws enforced by the police force of the state?

the state has the authority of for security

Ought is nice, but *is*.. well.. is what we needsmust focus on.

which has conditions outside of money

@Muten lol implying the current state is accountable hahahaha

ie. outside the mechanisms of trade

the only counter I've heard to "rogue armies" and "security company occupation" is just "people wouldn't appreciate it" which means???

don't confuse theory with implementation

Plus whose going to break up the monopolies? In an Ancap society that'd be a larger problem than we have today.

you can't compare a theortical ancap society to the implementation of a rep republic

@Terry Arcona Well they are accountable to more people, less accountable in general but equally accountable to the general public

theoretical representation republic vs theoretical ancap society

so, in theory, a state SHOULD be accountable

applies in both situations

If you want a 100% free market with 0 govt monopolies will ruin the economy more than it has now.

but the mechanisms of accountablity used by a traditional state lay outside the mechanisms of trade

not so in the ancap world

so how do you prevent one from using the other as leverage?

@Muten dude who pays the securty companies? if they become corrupt no one would pay them and they would go out of business

negative

but they have guns

who needs money when you have guns

just exploit the people you occupy

like they did in the olden times

they ONLY go out of business cause the STATE prevents them from just TAKING the money
