Thanks for popping by, Lib Master. I don't see much disunity, though - only diversity. And a lot of beautiful people on both sites! :-) I'll come visit London...
I'm thinking of buying a house or a flat "somewhere in Europe". Any views on where European property prices might go over the next several years? (If any ...

Further than what? I consider myself an anarcho-capitalist AND a libertarian. I do not see any contradiction in that. I do, however, see contradictions in...
Don't know the answer to the AC/Lib division.<br><br>I think AC is an ideal. Libertarianism is more realistic, or rather some Libertarians have more realistic ...
So the division between libertarians and ACs is one of practicality only, then? I.e. about how to get there from here? <br><br>David Friedman disagrees with ...
Anarcho Capitalism is like a diamond edged ideology. It has a clarity and simplicity that is very appealing and also very difficult to contradict once you ...
I agree, except that I do not think AC is any more (or any less) achievable than a minimal state. <br><br>Given the mechanisms of democracy, I do not think...
I'm not so sure about a regrowth of a welfare state after the creation of a minimal state. <br><br>I do not agree that '..many voters in the middle..typically...
Hmm. Trouble is that as long as there is a government, a lot of people are going to try to use that government to their advantage at the expense of others....
It is a joy to find an intelligent discussion of libertarianism. I am an American and I am glad to find some kindred spirits in Europe. I think the American ...
Welcome to the club, Raravis. Yes, a libertarian fire is definitely needed here in Europe. <br><br>Saw today, for instance, how more than 50 immigrants died ...
This debate, as you obviously know, is continuing on the other libertarian site. Yesterdays events were horrific, but the chances are that all that will happen...
Hi, Vic. Yes, I fear you are right about governments going to use this incident to tighten border controls. Most people are simply unable to consider the ...
I don't think most American Libertarians are for completely open borders, but few are anti-immigrant. I would not be for open borders unless the majority of...
As I see it, open borders are a boon to any nation, provided that foreign citizens have no right to government benefits in that nation. <br><br>Look at the ...
I think we would all agree that personal responsibility is a cornerstone of libertarianism. If this is the case, I think the true responsibility for the deaths...

If people want to escape from Communist oppression, then yes, we should welcome them with open arms.<br><br>And if this were a country with no gun control...
Raaravis - Seems you are starting to apply Harry-the-Sceptic-type arguments. <br><br>Firstly, how likely is it that the entire Red Army would decide to...
My point was that defense policy and immigration are not totally unrelated. You can't let a potential hostile and heavily armed Army migrate to your country ...
Not totally unrelated, no, but almost. <br><br>I consider state borders entirely artificial creations. The only borders I acknowledge are property borders....
>The centralization of power in more and more remote entities is a bad idea.<br><br>I tend to agree with you in this case. However, I would not dismiss ...
