RE: Ending the “Anarchist VS Minarchist” Debate Once and For All

in #libertarian7 years ago (edited)

Words alone are NEVER going to settle this. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER. Both sides are going to have to build prototype areas, regions, districts, communties, villages, towns, cities, counties... or a private "disneyland" structure (like that place in Norway) to prove their point(s). AK's "Split 50!" prescription is leading in that direction. Start with 50 independent nations. Govern as each sees fit. Then break down into 3,141 counties... some of which will "secede" from their respective state-nation. We'll see which localized model protects liberty, and which will see it flow through their fingers like water.

The issues of "cops, courts and clerks" are the things most Minarchists are concerned with. Without the force behind a warrant and a subpoena to the Witness stand (and perhaps the jury box, too), I fail to see how those accused of a crime can have a righteous trial. Are anarchos suggesting there is no need for a Justice System? Then there is the issue of "open borders". Can a "common defense" be provided without coercion? (if not via a draft, then forcing each to put something in to support the vols).

These are questions that will have to be addressed, now that we are on course to get Adam on that debate stage next to jackAss and elephant dung in 2020. Hopefully, he and his fellow AnCapVols will have at least some Agoras up and running at which they may direct America's attention by 2020. It's not that hard to create a libertarian agora flea market on a piece of private property in a rural setting somewhere. Time share real estate development will cover the cost of capitalization and provide lodging or residence. It's all been done before; we need not re-invent the wheel.
