Ah, so your argument is that without laws, commerce would be rendered impractical, no-one could trade, and there wouldn't be enough of anything around. If that is true, then yes, you would be right.
However, I'm arguing that commerce will still occur, even with the absence of law. I have no way to prove it though. That said, the money saved from not having to pay taxes should be more than enough to offset the costs of security against any kind of organised gang thefts.
Why are you so sure that if everyone was armed, and there was no government, that commerce would not take place?
>Why are you so sure that if everyone was armed, and there was no government, that commerce would not take place?
Because if people could not pay and get away with it they would at every chance they get. And that's true for the vast majority, regardless of skin color
...
What would occure isn't commerce, it would rather be barter to begin with, which is quite limited...
Again there are no laws, which means no paper money, no credit cards, no banks, no contract, no insurance... I mean wtf? It's even more of a primitive state than antiquity
Of course commerce would be rendered impracticable. Again might is right, you can't physically stop me I do whatever the fuck I want starting by raiding your cattles and farms just because I don't need competition for instance. Also, this land is not yours because now you're all dead so it's mine etc... And if you have nothing of value to offer you'll not even get a drop of water because it's mine, the whole planet is mine and you get to eat shit and die you're wasting my property etc
No laws means not even the talion law, eye for an eye
You walk on my precious foot I murder your entire family because I can, because I'm the biggest cartel, because I'm god
No laws means no propety rights, no rights whatsoever
Do you see it now?
I doubt it
You ask to play a game in which you would be the biggest loser, you ask for a no rules fight against an opponent who over power you at every fucking level, it's suicide. Because let's face it, you and your people aren't going to run the show, for the same reason you aren't running it today. You don't have might for you, you're under dogs. And I don't mean that in a disrespectful way, that's just how things are for the vast majority of us.
user44 thinks that everyone will act like niggers because he secretly is a nigger himself, and is projecting. Also glowing.
I appreciate the support, but does raise a valid argument.
The topic is a deep and complex one though. Even if most people didn't act like niggers, a certain percentage would. How much would be needed to destabilise everything for example? 10%? More, less?
Personally, I still think (as far as contracts are concerned), people would still honour them because to not do so would exclude you from the rest of the trade, or you'd have to make up for your lack of integrity by offering to pay higher prices, or sell at lower prices.
Also, everyone is armed, so while there are no laws, there are still grave consequences for doing something that someone else (or other people) really disprove of.
I'm willing - and waiting - to be proved wrong though!
And antistatist is obviously still mad at me lol
Get over it buttboy
