Well it's relieving to hear that clarification. I often find with libertarian thinkers that they treat money as a heuristic for human ambition, which they mistake solely as the pursuit of material ease. I think Mises fell into this same state of mind with his psychology of economic actors seeking to reduce uneasiness, or discomfort.

I personally disagree with the libertarian conception of "rational self-interest", but all the same I'm grateful for your time. Thank you for your reply.

Hi David. I'm somewhat familiar with your work and theory of polycentric law. I've read before that you discounted the possibility of war in a privatized future because such an act is expensive. I feel my understanding of such a pronouncement is incomplete, because the price of harmful activities have seldom prevented their attainment by those with the desire to do so. Heroin addicts obtain heroin, welfare queens get iphones, and all of this defies temperance and reason. Do you consider money to be the only motivation of rational actors?

This in mind, I'm curious what your rebuttal is to the possibility of an ancap future full of private military corporations formed over ethnic, geographic, religious, and cultural ties, as opposed to merely a profit incentive, which may or may not reap grand financial returns. Do you consider something like this likely, or possible even?

/u/mypussypops, why is it that leftists have a high intersection rate with guilty whites and LGBTQ activists? Also, before you throw a fit and call me a typical ancap, I'm not an anarchist or a capitalist.

I certainly don't get a fascist vibe from Mr. Invictus. If anything, I'd consider myself more authoritarian than him judging by his comments here.

Awesome. It's good to see people take back the fasces. It's a symbol of legitimate authority, not just Mussolini and fascism.
