The expectation is that people starve when resources are available and unused because someone who isn't starving might use said resource and goons should be in place to shoot you or kidnap you and lock you in a cage if you try, and this is not aggression.
Pinkertons making Americans work at gun point wasnt aggression either because it didn't affect private property. They had no right to assemble and speak in the face of private property. All rights wither in the face of capital.
Aggression is only related to property and not rights. The only libertarians here who complain about gross violations of individual rights are Santara and Surfpunk and they tend to focus on men's rights and not women's because they still think the state should have an opinion about their uterus...whether they understand it or or not has been one of the implications of the uterus being man's property for so long, which is why it is regulatable in the first place. I'm a left libertarian and we don't count in American politics....there is just nobody to vote for. Yanggang2020 I guess.

At least 43 people have died in a major blaze that broke out in a factory in India's capital New Delhi, police and fire department officials told CNN.
The fire swept through the five-story building in the early hours of Sunday, as laborers and factory workers were asleep inside.Some died due to asphyxiation, officials said.
"The problem was the smoke -- all the windows and doors were shut and there was dense smoke inside," said Sunil Choudhary, deputy chief fire officer.
"No one could get out. There was an iron door and it was locked and people were brought out only after we broke the door open. It had become a toxic chamber."
An eyewitness said some workers had tried to escape from a terrace, but it was locked.
"There are no proper ways to climb or get down, there is no fire safety, there is nothing," Mohammad Samar said, adding that this was not the first blaze at the site, which was a plastic factory that manufactured toys.
Samar said a number of small, unauthorized factories had been renting out space in the building, and that the complete lack of safety provisions was widely known.
Another eyewitness, who helped with rescue efforts, said he had seen boys trying to escape from the factory's roof, while others desperately crowded near sealed windows.
"I saw that the boys, who were standing there on the roof, they started screaming ... calling out to me ... saying 'Mullah sir please save me,'" Mohammad Manzur said.
The fire, which officials say was sparked by an electrical fault, took almost three hours to put out.
Reminds me of the Triangle Shirtwaist factory Fire here in the US before unions were able to stop this sort of thing:

The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, on March 25, 1911, was the deadliest industrial disaster in the history of the city, and one of the deadliest in U.S. history.[1] The fire caused the deaths of 146 garment workers – 123 women and girls and 23 men[2] – who died from the fire, smoke inhalation, or falling or jumping to their deaths.
