Wars are the unavoidable effect of a raw capitalism.
Sorry, but you seem to reject the consequence.
A true libertarian must forsee the results of his actions.
MJ
Do tell.
Joe and Pete mutually contract to exchange A and B.
As a result of this mutual exchange ... they spontaneously
break out into War. Seems rather absurd.
[what is 'raw' capitalism?]
Anna
This world is not a paradise and you are talking about
paradise believing that Joe and Pete given opportunity
to get a contract, will not fight over it.
MJ
Such contracts occur daily.
I made no claims concerning any 'paradise'.
Perhaps tomorrow when the landscaper comes, I should
beat the shit out of him. Why I had not thought of doing
this at any time over the past 10 years is baffling.
Anna
This is very naive. A fight for survival unfortunetely also
manifests as ruthlessness in dealing with the competition.
MJ
Do you imagine that by talking in circles while
interjecting fallacious arguments somehow makes
this religious chanting of yours true?

If I had to point out the characteristic trait that
differentiates socialism from [a proper view of the
political economy], I should find it here. Socialism
includes a countless number of sects. Each one has
its own utopia, and we may well say that they are so
far from agreement that they wage bitter war upon one
another. Between M. Blanc's organized social workshops
and M. Proudhon's anarchy, between Fourier's
association and M. Cabet's communism, there is
certainly all the difference between night and day.
What then, is the comon denominator to which all forms
of socialism are reducible, and what is the bond that
unites them against natural society, or society as
planned by Providence? There is none except this:
They do not want natural society. What they want is
an artificial society, which has come forth full-grown
from the brain of its inventor... They quarrel over
who will mould the human clay, but they agree that
there is human clay to mould. Mankind is not in their
eyes a living and harmonious being endowed by God
Himself with the power to progress and to survive,
but an inert mass that has been waiting for them to
give it feeling and life; human nature is not a subject
to be studied, but matter on which to perform experiments.
