Thread: The Morality of Capitalism

That is not running the economy, who else is supposed to decide which kind of rights are used?

Anyone who realizes what robbery is.

Pretending that people can't own property is robbery, which is exactly what anarcho-socialism does.

Jesus Christ, did I just say anarcho-socialism?

I need to lay down.

Exactly, so these people will control the economy.
But people have different and equally valid ideas of legitimate property so it is not as simple as you try and make it.

All anarchism is socialist, so the phrase anarcho-socialist is not generally used.

Now who is redefining words, all anarchism is socialism, the word anarcho-socialist is not used except by a few ignorant ancaps.

No, they're not equally valid.

Some people believe that I don't have the right to use my own resources to gain my own resources.

Have you never heard of anarcho-capitalists?

Umm, do you actually have any idea about property rights theory or do you just make it up as you go along?

What makes resources yours instead of someone else's?

I'm surprised the liberals and your fellow conservatives here don't attack you on this, they could wipe the floor with you.

Well this is a very small movement within anarchism and most anarchists reject them as anarchists. I'm more tolerant, but by the definitions and terms used by the anarchist movement they are not capitalists but socialists, there system is little different to mutualism or individual anarchism.

I've told you where property rights come from over and over.

Free trade of resources.

I don't really care much what Anarchists think.

You have yet to say how a resource becomes yours and what makes a resource legitimately yours?

There are many issues, do you have a right to waste resources or be an absentee landlord? Do you have a right to monopolise natural resources you didn't create without giving something back to the community, etc etc.
These issues are impossible to decide on either way from libertarian principles.

You don't seem to care much about thinking.

By trading your resources to get it.

Don't be a moron.

What allowed you to originally make resources yours?
