While the US Constitution is a fine leap forward in LIBERTARIANISM and better than a whole lot of AUTHORITARIANISM that went before, it's by no means PERFECT.
In the matter of sale of goods and services imported to USA, Paul has been describing CONSTITUTIONAL principles that are NOT consistent with UNIVERSAL libertarianism; aka nap, zap, 'physical aggression truce' and so on. Please see what I wrote in What's at the Heart of What Libertarians are Selling? at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Libertarian/message/30419 -Terry Liberty Parker 'Real World' experiment in LIBERTARIAN nation building at http://www.constitution.org --- In [email protected], <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > From: Paul <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > I have no problem limiting government authority to what is stated > > inside the U.S. Constitution which is a legitimate and libertarian > > document. > > > > I don't want to run anyone's life and absolutely nothing I've said > > amounts to limiting the property rights of anyone or theft.

If it is my furniture and I put it in my basement, how are you involved. It is my furniture and my basement. Simple because you live down the street from me does not give you an interest in my basement or my furniture. > > > What makes you think you should be able to sell your products in my mall without > paying rent? > > I do not. Your mall analogy is flawed. I wish to sell my product in my shop which I own.

What right do you have to MY property, that I own and that you do not. I wish to be allowed to run the market that me and my customers create without your violation and without your interference and in a peaceful manner. > > BWS > ForumWebSiteAt http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Libertarian Yahoo!
