They follow the idea of their leader. Their idealistic conception of them.
The absolutely are.
I'm talking towns of tens of thousands not a few hundred
The local government could secede from the federal government and function exactly the same as it currently does.
no, a resident could not build a building with his own money, and sell it to a company which turns it into a tavern
Even instinctual hedonists follow their ideas, as in their conception of the pleasure of sex, or food, etc.
that is not voluntary
lol most municipal and county/state/department/provincial governments in most countries derive a great deal of their revenue from the federal government
@Fénius Farsaid the idea counts for nothing is the people who are following the leader do not see somthing in the leader that they see in themselves. They see the potential not the potential of the idea
it is a criminalization of mutual arrangements enforced by state power
pure and simple
@Nerthulas What?
what do you mean 'what'
that's what it is
I literally don't know how that's relevant
@vicmaxim Their perception of the potential is, in itself, an idea.
do you know what a dry town actually is
An idea of what could be
Yes
A government of a limited number of people pass legislation to prohibit consensual business transactions without the consent of the majority
What's this about tavarns?
@Fénius Farsaid we're getting off topic
@Leaf I'm referring mainly to covenants.
I'm not
Same thing tbh
They can be governed the same
Your whole argument is that prohibition is ineffective and this has been disproven
@Fénius Farsaid my point is if your leader was a fat ass chick with no character spouting libertarian bs all day and night. nobody would follow her
in a dry county, a person could NOT build a building on their own dime, and sell it to a company who would then turn it into a bar
that would be an illegal action
@Leaf No, it is absolutely ineffective.
do you understand that?
@Nerthulas Yes.
@Fénius Farsaid no matter how much they love the idea
It has worked on most occassions
@vicmaxim I don't know why I would ever disagree with that.
okay, then that is not a voluntary system
In which way were the policies I listed ineffective?
It is
