Pure Libertarianism doesnt exist (excepted maybe in somalia-like countries)

somalia fallacy.

Quote
Economical views of libertarianism arent considering the human factor, and so on should never be applied for the sake of mandkind

sounds like nonsense.
can you substantiate this claim?

Quote
Pure Libertarianism will naturally create fascism and the related governement (leaders will be the association of warlords & conglomerates cartels)

libertarianism is about as far from fascism as you can get. pure nonsense claim.

Code
Fascism is a form of radical authoritarian nationalism, characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and control of industry and commerce that came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe.


Code
"Libertarianism is a political philosophy that views respect for individual choice and individual liberty as the foundation of the ideal society, and therefore seeks to minimize or abolish the coercive actions of the State as that is the entity that is generally identified as the most powerful coercive force in society. Broadly speaking, libertarianism focuses on the rights of the individual to act in complete accordance with his or her own subjective values, and argues that the coercive actions of the State are often (or even always) an impediment to the efficient realization of one's desires and values"


Quote
Libertarianism should only a populist movement asking for more local and individual rights

Potentially strongly detrimental to ethics or environment etc..; list is impressive.

Thanks

how is it detrimental to ethics? whose ethics?

free market babies & slaves should not be a problem... After all thousands years of history are nothing vs Holy Liberarianism...



Damn i had something essential to add but i forgot :(


Edit yes !

- Libertarianism will divide the society, that will end up in getting annexed by another country (if it doesnt fall to fascism before)

=> So like i said it's just a movement for less state rights and more individual rights, and that can be good, example: China. Finally it's all about being moderated.

I am in no way, shape or form "scared" of any intellectual test against such a mental midget.

I am not your your trained monkey. I dont do as you command.
I have literally thousands of posts on this forum relating to libertarianism. Feel free to address any one of those with an actual argument.

I didnt feel the need to waste my time respondig with a random argument in response to your sophomoric challenge implying i advocate chattel slavery, when you have shown you are so hostile towards the idea of honest consideration and debate, and there is no position stated to make an argument against.


So you're just a hypocrite then? Ok.

I'm totally open to honest debate. Just couldn't be arsed debating something as ridiculous as libertarianism. But I've given you the chance and now I'm the one who has to come up with a proposition?

Ok sure. Whatever.

First you should probably let us know just how far you're willing to go with this schtick. I mean are you for or against welfare for example?

what models? how are they not working well? are they tied to the core of libertarianism?
what does that have to do with a "human factor' libertarianism supposedly isn't considering?

Private and voluntary court systems and security aren't fascism.

all societies have the potential to be overtaken by force. a libertarian social order doesn't preclude a strong military or alliances.
A more efficient allocation of resources, freedom to own weaponry, opposition to wars of aggression, and a strong economy would be pros for defense and peaceful coexistence.

we see throughout history that places without a tight central government are typically much harder to effectively take over and control, even with overwhelming military advantages.

'moderation' might make you feel warm and fuzzy inside but you arent making an argument here.

i wont dance on command so i'm a "hypocrite". nice logic. you've outdone yourself again. no actual hypocrisy there just feelings.

and then you go right back to the asinine assertion that libertarianism is ridiculous and you cant be bothered with it.
you dont understand it, haven't read any books on it, habitually refuse to debate it, but you claim its somehow ridiculous and beneath you.
what do you think that says about you?

how gracious of you to give me a 'chance' :rolleyes:
i am against forced redistribution of wealth. i am not against voluntary welfare arrangements.

"free market" model, no regulations, "Robber barons" era is back, congrats :)

Eveybody will be judge and policeman. No problem... Oh wait.

No regulation and no rules is more likely no ethics too...
It's just a call for civil war.

I doubt a libertarian social order will be able to fund a central army.
Libertarians hippies will be absorbed, corrupted, and recruited, by & for foreign countries.
Their guns cant do much against VX gas anyway. But i heard is very good for suicide.

You are splitting instead of accepting a moderated governement still strong enough to counteract giant conglomerates, that is the key for equilibrium, on the top of that controlled elections & fundings, well it's mostly Europe, even if it's not perfect.

Pay your taxes or the local libertarian Warlord (or Lord) will take your children as slaves, while you will be forced to clean his toilets.

You're welcome. I am benevolent on occasion.

So by 'voluntary welfare agreements' you mean what? Charity? You want a middle-ages system of church-run hospitals (not the same thing as hospitals today, houses for the poor and dying) or?

Because I think it's a fantasy to believe that people will just voluntarily throw enough money around to keep anything like the welfare state the US has today and even that is not good enough to keep the dying and disabled from often experiencing extreme poverty.

Extreme poverty was eliminated thanks to capitalism in the 20th century

Dems have to hyperbole to make any of their arguments relevant

Depends on your definition of extreme poverty. If, like me, you would define it as not having enough money to feed your family properly or to pay your utilities and rent then yes. I would say so. If it means living on the street becausde you are mentally ill and there is little to no help available for you then yea. I would say so.

If someone sleeps in a cardboard box then that is, in my eyes, pretty extreme poverty.
