The only viable #libertarian revolution will be a bottom-up, market-driven one. one that's driven by individuals economic incentives. The beauty is that States recognize the coming catastrophe and kneel to #bitcoin for their survival! View quoted note → View quoted note → #grownostr
States are driven by incentives like any entity. their primary incentives are CRIME and SURVIVAL. Without a survival threat, they commit crime as deep as they can. Only deep catastrophe triggers economic reforms (seen globally in 20th/21st century market reforms). After all, why grant freedom when things are "passing"? Reforms aren't about liberty, but the political class's recognition of crisis and act of survival. #grownostr #libertariansim
The core flaw of #libertarianism isn't its vision, but how it tries to get there. A "top-down" political strategy–voting–is ill-suited. Libertarianism truly hinges on self-regulation, NOT MERELY LESS GOVERNMENT. Without mature private entities to step in, non-interventionism in foreign policy in a world that Putin and Bin Laden live is not an ideal. That's why a libertarian shouldn't engage in favor of any politician. #grownostr

Contrary to what many libertarians believe, there is such a thing as "regulation" in an Ancap society—it's just way more efficient and market-driven than government regulation. It’s not like anyone can just keep a nuclear bomb in their mom's basement. because no insurance company would cover that! On the other hand, some weapons are only used for defense, so insurance companies would charge much lower premiums for people owning those. #grownostr #Ancap
Last week I read "Chaos Theory" by Bob Murphy, which has two essays: "Private Law" and "Private Defense." The first one is super convincing—like, it could even turn a fair-minded commie into an Ancap! The second essay is good but not as strong; I think it struggles with the Free Riding problem. It would’ve been more compelling if Bob had framed it like, "Imagine there are ten thousand Liechtensteins in Europe," and then brought in private armies and insurance companies to avoid geographical free riding. Still, I definitely recommend reading it. Check it out here: 📄.pdf #grownostr #ancap #libertarianism
