I wont if you won't :)

@Philosonomics you should seek a little help friend. Just to make sure you're ok.

@JDC52 Thanks for the concern friend, what's your best estimate of future diagnosis?

@Philosonomics diagnosis of what my friend?

@JDC52 Nevermind, it seems above your pay grade.

Yeah! you found it, just in time

@abdirahmanbadal781 A reciprocal system is limited by too many factors to be reasonable or beneficial.... The coincidence of wants, scale and value limitations plus unnecessary complicated documentational burdens among others. I'm not moved.

@warringtonwilliams464 I don't think that word means what you think it means

@@Philosonomics ...and I believe you are in denial.

Yeah it is, it's the only alternative to the flow of resources being controlled by individual wants and needs, you either want individuals to control resources and trade them, or you want a state or central planner to decide where they belong.

@OMJunkie lol wot?

100

The AI gods have taken note and thank you for your offering

Someone didn't watch the video. Mises advocates for the capitalistic free market NOT communism. Maybe you misspoke and meant it was a capitalist troll page pushing an agenda? Seemed relatively unbiased to me but I think it's important to listen to ideas and reasoning BEFORE I form an opinion. It's hard to imagine how you became angry at the milk toast cursory summary of a philosophy that dominates the global economy. Refusing to even attempt to understand ideas foreign to you isn't very beneficial for anyone.

@ameliawester Feel free to post a critique of any of the points.... Maybe start with the ECP, I'd love to hear your counter to it.

@@Philosonomics no i meant it was a communist page.....tweaking the narrative as usual. What you randomly were create with this little amount of views and it just nicely fits in with conflicting narratives pushed by other pages? Doubt it.

@ameliawester I'm still not sure what you mean... is anti or pro communist in your opinion, that's what is not clear from your comments?.. But either way its a break down of Ludwig Von Mises book titled "Socialism" ... Did you even watch it?

Yeah it's crazy right! Have you seen the latest happiness data from North Korea? It's literally off the charts!

@@Philosonomics You're comparing N. Korea to Canada, Denmark, The U.K. Etc... Etc.. Etc...

Economics isn't nearly as simple as you paint it to be lmao, showing some chart doesn't prove anything in a science that complicated. I know you're talking about Scandinavian countries, which number 1 they're not socialist, they're the status quo, neo-liberal mixed market, number 2, didn't one of these countries literally try private welfare in the past and it worked? 3 yeah, and so what if they had good outcomes, who's to say they wouldn't have been better off had they not implemented these programs? Economics is one of the most complicated sciences due to the sheer amount of factors at play in any outcome, it's not like physics where you can isolate variables.

​@@Barnabas45Yeah, which is literally the point lol, North Korea is the end game of "sharing wealth" while countries like the UK have just started, for countries like the UK it's hilarious because the NHS is garbage, and the country is in shambles right now.

@Barnabas45 I didn't compare anything to anything, I pointed to the end point of your scale to show the contradiction inherent in it... You might want to do some further digging into the UK "happiness" data, social services are borderline broken, pensioners funding getting cut, med system failing (look at the NHS wait times) and since Blair it has been shifting to an authoritarian shit hole full of corruption. It's not how you envision it in reality.

Good to hear mate, happy to have you on board. Cheers

What makes it propaganda in your opinion?

This easiest way to escape currently is to move wealth out of inflationary fiat and into crypto or other scarce assets

Agreed, Lindsay is grasping for enemies

Do you wish to abolish all hierarchies including voluntary hierarchies? If so how would that be enforced...

@@Philosonomics This question has been answered a million times by anarchists indulging ancaps. I'm not gonna write a book here on why the NAP is trash because several books have already covered that subject already and since they were mostly written by actual anarchists you can find them free online because we don't compulsively commodify everything we touch. I'm just here to make it explicit that ancaps exist in an entirely separate ideological world than real anarchists, and any nonsense you say should not be associated with us. You make us look bad by using our name. Real anarchists are exclusively anti-capitalist. You already ruined the word libertarian, be content with that without trying to appropriate what's left.

Ok then... Consider your mission accomplished comrade

Haha MGS2 spitting facts

@skylinefever Hey man, good to see you back, you were among the first ppl to sub... Yeah I was relatively new to Burnham's direct work then (but had heard second hand alot of it) and since have really been enjoying his explanation of things I had that i had some vague feeling of... Will definitely have more on him in the future. Cheers

@@Philosonomics I am glad to take part. Your other videos are good, but this one I felt the need to comment on because I had a higher interest in Burnham.

In your opinion which Burnham should be covered here first... The The Managerial Revolution or The Suicide of the West?

@@Philosonomics Managerial Revolution, for sure. I saw that book as filling a huge hole in economic theories. Instead of big companies creating an economy of scale and passing it on, the PMC got all those savings, the masses didn't get anything.

@skylinefever OK cool will put it to the top of the queue, keep an eye out mate.

🤣 Agreed--but, then again, when half the American populous has an intense relationship with assumptions and conspiracies via social media while having little remaining relationship with serious education, history, and facts, this is the philosophical drivel you get. OrangeT just needs to mention it for it to have the king's imprimatur. Until then, it will languish in a corner of their common, anti-constitutional ignorance.

@owencooney7178 Haha, congrats on being first mate

@ReflectedMiles Cool story bro

My friend is an self identifying anarchist and calls me a libertarian. I think your incorrect.

The radical end of the spectrum would be anarchism. Minarchism is the more moderate position. Am I understanding you correctly saying, that being religious or having morals precludes you (or someone else) from being libertarian (or anarchist)?

@clintdarquea3719 Haha, I know the exact dynamic you're talking about. What's the general tone that he uses when describing you as a libertarian ?

@@Philosonomics For anyone who has any semblance of morality rooted in religion(whether it be Christianity, Islam, or Buddhism), they cannot be Libertarians. To be a Libertarian in the simplest sense is to leave others alone and to let them do their own thing so long as they never mess with you and prevent you from doing your own thing. To be religious inherently requires you to go out of your way to make the rest of the world behave like you and your religion; whether by doing it nonviolently through discussion like Christianity, or through violent subjugation and warfare like Islam. It doesn’t matter what religion you are, so long as others out there in the world do something morally reprehensible under the doctrine you believe in, you are required to put a stop to it. That violates being a libertarian. The reason why I say libertarians are basically anarchists is because so long as anarchy isn’t happening to them (or even worse, they’re the ones perpetrating the violence) then they are ok with it happening in the world. There is no call to action to help out those in need because to do so would be to violate others ability to do as they want.

Hey mate, thanks for the sub and the feedback whether solicited or not :) always welcome as I'm pretty fresh to the creation end of youtube. You are right that the faceless nature is not great in a few aspects and is self limiting in a few more. The one thing that will probably keep it this way is the stress free and uninfluenced way I can choose my topics (along with a fair amount of camera shyness). It has it's strengths and weaknesses. I am enjoying the commenters that have slowly began subbing/sticking to the channel and I think at some milestone in the future I may do a reveal or live Q and A or something... Will see how it goes. I've thought about well produced intro to add to each video but most online advice has pointed to getting to the content as fast as possible in the ADHD landscape we live in. If you have any books, essays or topics you'd like to see in the future let me know and it might end up on my ever expanding list. Cheers

100% agreed on the purity testing and theory fest's that seem to only serve to make the Libertarian Party irrelevant. Libertarian's enjoy theory more than realty and don't seem to know when a trade off should be made instead always make "the perfect the enemy of the good". Side note: Did you vote for Chase Oliver after being in the party for 30 years? What was your take on that political manoeuvring that squashed the Mises Causcus and ultimately the party's main source of momentum (in my opinion). Agreed egalitarianism has a specific meaning, but as the discourse has slowly and surely seemed to replace the word equality with equity and can I understand the need for counter balance. The rejection of equality of outcome as fundamentally against liberty and nature is needed more than ever. I'm not sure how that isn't apparent to everyone in the space.

Sounds like someone operating with an aggressively redefined idea of socialism is suddenly becoming very concerned about redefining terms to better suit a preexisting narrative. How droll.

@@Philosonomicsit isn’t apparent to everyone in the space because everyone in the space does not possess the childlike understanding of the world that you do. You should worry about it less and just enjoy the ride.

Not quite sure you know what you’re talking about with all do respect neoliberalism and libertarianism are two completely different political ideologies The only thing they have in common is that they are both not communist, libertarians are not against royalty free music or wacky AI thumbnails so not quite sure what the dig is supposed to be don’t see any contradictions or irony here

Did some body force feed your eye balls 'Clockwork Orange' style mate? It's a big internet go somewhere you enjoy. Peace

@aden6665 I was as confused as you... I will never understand people that consume content they don't like... In the last 5 or so years I've seen this phenomenon increase to the point where if you go to a specific subreddit for example there will be more people that hate the subject than are there because they like it. It's bizarre... Anyways cheers mate and good to see you found at least some value in the ideas getting out there a little bit more.

Heh, I will continue to strive for the only acceptable score...An 11 out of 10 :)

It's definitely propaganda

@MoiriAKAFate Propaganda for who, paid for by whom in your best guess? It's literally a discussion about a fairly milquetoast libertarian book...

@Philosonomics exactly, it's humorous to see you explain your video. I don't know why you felt the need to defend yourself and explain your video. I just expressed it was propaganda after you supported a comment rating your propaganda. Obviously, you lack the ability to critically think Propaganda doesn't have to be paid for. It just has to be expressed lol. Obviously, you need to pick up a book and read the definition of propaganda Since you're one of the sensitive libertarians I guess you're not the podcaster for me. Maybe I'll find someone with an actual degree, educated people seem to not be as sensitive. Haha

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. I do think about this contradiction and I don't have a resolution for it myself. If there were 2 viruses and A was aggressive and killed virus B when it encountered it while B just lived passively then eventually Virus A would end Virus B. I see this as an issue that needs an answer from all political frameworks and I agree Libertarianism doesn't have a convincing answer... Neither do Christians for that matter. Side note: I'm not an open boarders libertarian as that is impossible with the current welfare state. Even still if the welfare state did not exist I think there are strong arguments against it based on private property rights. Anyways thanks for stopping by and dropping that solid point, you may see a video on it in the future mate. Cheers!

@@Philosonomics This reply made me subscribe.

Nice one mate, I appreciate it. If you have any critiques or suggestions feel free to drop them on me otherwise, good to have you onboard.

Pretty dumb. All political philosophes only work if they maintain the majority. A national body only exist if it maintains majority buy in.

@clintdarquea3719 Force is nonlinear. 1 guys + 1 nuke vs 100,000 people

What is you working definition fascism, for clarity? Do you think the current progressive left, use fearmongering, divisive rhetoric and tend to push authoritarianism, coercion, CORPRATISM, hate speech, and disinformation? If so in what proportion to the group your making your claim about. Or is Trump "literally Hitler" (which lead to multiple REAL murder attempts)? Joe Biden would never pardon Hunter? Trump is a Russian asset, weaponizing the justice system for political lawfare campaigns, major institutions/platforms colluding to censor and silence right wing or even scientists that argued against "the message for covid" ( which is not very scientific if you ask me as a Bio Med Sci) voices and 100 other examples.... Are you aware of the current situation in the UK? Who's acting the like jack boot thugs there in your opinion. Or Canada, Australia, New Zealand etc... I'm not Curtis Yarvin... however in his proposed system to my understanding it is millions of micro states. They are not democratic but you can choose one that suits your desires. All choice, No voice. You may want to read about his solution at least solely for fun.

I have many critiques and no I will not... FREEEEEEEEEEDOM!

Agreed, third world political lawfare and cronyism has been publicly and unashamedly normalised by Biden. It's a sad day

Who is it ruled by now lol

@Philosonomics I wouldn't argue we haven't been bought $ back into similar situations by corporations bribing politicians. but that's because they are the only thing in the way of cooperations being solely responsible for society. A corporate monopoly is a modern day monarch no choice for those without power, no option for those who have nothing. No lengths that someone might go to, so that they can have more or take more.

You'd rather have localized community police itself so that we can have small facets of people building niche place with their own set of rules, even regressing morally in many respects. Education localized so either rich kids get all the best education or local farm kid never learns to read or write. Roads and bridges tolled everywhere

Yes, I 100% agree Hoppe's (who was a big influence on Yarvin) style of voluntary covenant communities would be preferable, although that is not what Yarvin argues for at all, his design you would like a lot less than my preference, I'm almost sure. Yarvin's patchwork of micro states mirroring a CEO model with all choice no voice is still preferable to the current corrupt cronyism system,. Morally regressive?.. Where do you derive your moral authority from?

Agreed mate. We're going to try to channel Rothbard's insights from beyond the grave to the political/economic landscape of current events. I want to get his idea's out there and apply a Rothbardian analysis that is applicable to today... Let me know in the future if you think we're on target or not. Just posted a new 10 minute pod with Rothbard's probable take on Joe Biden pardoning Hunter, please let me know what you think and what we can improve on. Cheers

@Philosonomics in videos moving forward would you consider pulling clips from his lectures? He's a very funny guy and has a way of explaining himself

Yeah I've been thinking about adding some videos it will increase the time it takes to make but I think your right that it would really help the entertainment, education and add some life to hear his words directly. Thanks for the suggestion.

@@Philosonomics I will definitely stay tuned! In addition I think clips from his lectures will help humanize the man to your audience

Awesome mate, thanks alot for the specific feedback, always hoping to do better :)

100% brother. I want 1 more BTC than I currently have constantly

Nah your scratching skills are mate... Get MF DOOM spirit off ya face, he dont deserve the desecration. What up? To all rappers, shut up with your shuttin' up And keep your shirt on, at least a button up

@Philosonomics Ya, I'm just getting started. Trickle down, what a scam.

Agreed. I'd like to know more about who put this together in general.

The repetition is a hallmark of AI created content.

Interesting. Tell me, how do the rest of us know that your not an AI typing a comment 🧐

@askedofgod9067 now that's a relevant question.

@@cameronlukewilson281 I love it😂🤖

Decentralised patchwork systems are a buffer to that, first proposed by Hoppe and furthered by Yarvin. I'm assuming you're a Hoppe fan but I may be wrong...

No , you can not have my property and yes everyone can engage in voluntary agreements. Further competency hierarchies are natural... that's why we have the Olympics. Back to r/antiwork with you

Have you personally come across any news stories that were fabricated, taken out of context/misrepresented or shown to be completely untrue from the corporate media at all?

fair point mate, appreciate the feedback, cheers n beers

These economic beliefs are in many books. If this presentation encourages people to look beyond common belief, it will be a win.

Thanks @mylessalmon2569 My goal with the project is to take some ideas that are rarely heard and/or hard to digest and put them forward in a casual and easy to digest manner with the hope that it may spark some interest in the uninitiated. Thanks for recognising the value in that aspect. Cheers

@@Philosonomics It's my goal to spread new ideas to people.

Who funds them now?

@@mathewkelly9968 Pretty much. Libertarians don't really believe in society like normal humans do. Their ideology is Enlightenment for people that don't understand Enlightenment. Its like loving Thomas Jefferson, without understanding Locke.

Are you saying force or coercion is a necessity at some point in the evolution of every/any society?

@@Philosonomics "what private property is" is subjective. Furthermore, it is incalculable, viewed as objective and treated as if it's subjective again. Whilst society in some regards strives towards making it objective, it introduces trade-offs and coercion in so doing.

@@Philosonomics If I may ask, do you believe that there is an objective criterion by which private property is established?

​@@Philosonomicslike you 'libertarians' won't end up using force and coercion too 😂

@olivern.karlsson3927 Private property has a clear legal definition and framework in most societies. That can vary across cultures... Can you explain what you mean by ""what private property is" is subjective"" and how it introduces coercion by striving to towards making it objective? I'm not sure I'm following the full point of what you're saying. Thanks for reaching out here mate, I'm genuinely interested in this line of though

Wow, thanks very much for that detailed story of personal experience. When you say they try to do something on public property they are condemned. I'm curious how something new would be built on unused/unowned/unoccupied land and what the process of that would be if at all... And how a large scale operation like a hospital is done and agreed upon. Would love to hear more about that. I've heard ancient Iceland thrown around as an example of an AnCap society but have researched that too deeply. I think most libertarians that are more radical than the minarchist advocate for contractual convent communities, Hans-Herman Hoppe has laid out some work in this area. Also services would be provided by private entities, the fire department would be replaced by multiple competing business with rating systems. Same would apply for defence/police so it' wouldn't have to be solely tribal like defence. Thanks again for the great comment

Id also be interested in an expansion maybe the youtuber could interview you or something

​@@Philosonomics I read up on contractual convent communities. It perfectly describes what I've experienced. This is, in fact, the norm for most rural Pashtun communities (think tribal Afghanistan where central governments aren't possible). Police forces are made up of mostly paid volunteers, but the locals are heavily armed and can quickly form defensive militias. Each neighborhood has its own armed watch rotation every night, separate from the police, and this is fully voluntary and unpaid. Fire departments are formed in the same way, rather than as a business. Those services operate almost as charities with each individual in the community voluntarily giving funds, similar to how mosques operate. Funnily enough, the medical field is the one that operates most like a business-to-business market. Hospitals act as a marketplace/bazaar for individual doctors, nurses, pharmacists, radiologists, etc. rather than as a single formal entity. The "hospital" is just the building where they are based. One thing to note is that the police have very little power. There are instances where the tribe will easily overpower police. Tense standoffs have occurred with the police usually backing down and offering to negotiate with the tribal elders. On some occasions, full shootouts do occur. As for your question on how unused public land is made useful by individuals, it's almost a first-come-first-serve basis. So long as there are no other parties that have a greater claim or greater purpose for it, then it usually defaults to whomever was there first. If someone wants to build a school or mosque on it, it will almost always go towards that purpose instead. This tactic of building public services is often used by competing rivals to sabotage each others' expansion plans. It works in the favor of the community, but can hinder economic growth. The condemnation comes in when it is immediately useful land and you claim it for yourself. That is considered a big insult to the community. Only land that is unusable and made usable is considered fair game (a clear example is a rough mountainside that is unclaimed and made into farmland through labor, very few would think to get involved in that case). This obviously isn't tolerated for roads/waterways, but beyond that, so long as you don't cause harm to other peoples interests, the community generally accepts the use, or rather, they are indifferent to its use.

So you would have rather left the children to starve or have to choose an option which is worse than producing shoes? Or do you assume those children had to do the labour because they where forced to by greedy parents?

An Uber, Amazon, Ebay etc consumer rating works and has been a huge boon for customers along with personal communication there is a pathway there. I understand the reaction to the Nike style situation. I'm sure removing or banning people from choosing their best option they enter into voluntarily is not the help most people think it is.

I'd be interested in hearing a few of his key points that have been proven to be as bad as communism. Cheers

@@Philosonomics The history of American Fruit Company, Union Carbide India Limited and PG&E come to mind. I'm sure there are many more that sell products that are harmful, they know they are harmful and keep selling them. One could say these are simply a few bad apples spoiling the bunch, but sadly the big apples tend to get bigger and do really spoil the bunch. These things also happen under communism, see China's baby formula scandal for reference. That is precisely why you need regulation to keep these bad actors in check as opposed to a government that colludes with business to protect them. If the free market was effective in self regulating there would not be a need to regulate anything. The market and players in it have proven repeatedly the only restraint is collapse, and then they run to daddy government for a bail out even as they blame the government for everything.

Thank you, I'll have a look into those examples. You may see some videos touching on them in the future! Cheers

How has Ron Paul's approach been show to repeatedly fail?
