Lemme get this straight

in libertarian utopia, one man can buy up all the vital resources such as water or medical supplies, and sell them off at exorbitant prices? couldn't he become a de facto dictator? or does owning everything equate to a violation of the NAP? cant he just hire a bunch of private security and give them amazing pay and benefits to secure their loyalty so a mob would have no power? think about it this way, we set up government to stop this kind of thing.

The free market will fix it (somehow)

The people selling water or medical supplies could refuse service

*sighs* i wasnt planning on a debate, but go for it. how am i wrong?

How exactly would one person buy all the water? Are you a literal retard?

But in any case, don't confuse libertarian utopia with anarchist utopia.

Yes.

He could also set fire to priceless works of art and dynamite world heritage sites. But hey, it's better than having a meddling government bureaucracy in our lives.

Here's how you're wrong: It's impossible for one person to buy 100% of a vital resource.

he offers them the sweetest deals of their lives. they are people and therefore easily corrupted

Libertarianism is the philosophy that only big businesses should rule people, because human beings can not be trusted with that much power, which is why we need to give everyone the same amount of power under the reasoning that no one will hurt vulnerable people if there are no regulations barring them from doing so, because human beings are naturally untrustworthy and vicious.

Oh, and how is it you obtain these items now?

>buy up all the vital resources
buy them from whom?
>sell them off at exorbitant prices?
if he can do this, why didn't the people he bought them from do this first?

A true libertarian society would result in the same outcome as a true communist society, and in fact all societies.
Elites, workers, scum.

>Man buys up all water and medicine
>Sells at high price
>Other businessmen seeing the high prices capitalize by providing more water and medicine
>Prices balance out

>He could also set fire to priceless works of art

This is perfectly legal now. Why shouldn't it be?

If one man somehow got more money than everyone else combined, then sure.

It would be a shame if Canada had the only mill making the fibres for n95 masks and 1/3rd of the world's fresh water...

this sounds like ancap not liberterianism

You are arguing with a literal retard.

I know

he offers them more than they would otherwise make as smaller proprietors

>in libertarian utopia, one man can buy up all the vital resources such as water or medical supplies
It's impossible to do that so your premise is inaccurate.

this applies equally to your governmental solution

i just didnt think your posts were that intelligent. if everything is privatised, of course one man could buy it all

>mfw simps still believe in the predatory pricing meme

Lol

>not planning on a debate
>asks a question that provokes a debate
>thinks he can just asks something then leave like a niggers dad

Yes its a flaw of the idealogy attempting to retain a public law and police force rather than dissolving a nation to its borders and allowing citizens to legally kill eachother for doing bullshit like your example. Not to say anarcho capitalism is good, just that its a system better equipped than libertarianism to deal with the problem of hegemonic market domination.

>assumes financial gain is the sole factor in valuation.

Assassination guilds. If somebody becomes a nuisance like this then people will start putting bounties on his head and eventually he'll be worth taking out. Obviously everybody can give a little and it'll add up to a big bounty.
Most civil disputes will be solved in this way because how else are you going to solve troublemakers when it's your police force vs. their police force. The threat of a bounty will keep vast majority of people honest.

this. any look into a basic economics textbook or just a google search would tell you how prices get determined in capitalism. pic related explains it in like 20 mins of reading

Lol but it’s easy to restrict access to it with superior firepower

holy shit.

In a libertarian society something approximating public utilities would indeed exist, for those goods and services that are most efficiently provided for by such a model. The difference is, they would not be connected to a central hub that could use those "services" as an excuse to take all your shit.

Then businesses will just keep popping up to sell supplies to him until he runs out of money and all he's left with is a giant supply of water and medicine that he has no choice but to sell at a fair price.

Name me one place BESIDES a govt controlled or supported monopoly, where a private company, minimally or not funded by any govt, owns over 95% of all of the natural resources in an area.

Don't you think if there were 3 spring water companies at a town that developed around the natural springs, that all of them would immediately sell out? Do you think businessmen running million dollar businesses are that clueless and dumb?

see? just wait a minute, wait a minute. We both call our local, non-violent dispute solving agencies, they exchange verbal and written information with each other, right? And then the dispute gets handeled in a court that our is in line with both of our NAP. The free market dictates how much resources one can buy and how theh can buy them, so if someone has that many resources to buy that medical equipment or whatever, it will increase demand, and then more medical equipment gets made by the free market anyway. if there were no government, the market would just correct itself and not violate our NAP and then the adjusting dispute solving NAP free market will work itself out. its that simple, my friends. I used to have sex with hundreds of girls every year in my 20s.

>Name me one place BESIDES a govt controlled or supported monopoly, where a private company, minimally or not funded by any govt, owns over 95% of all of the natural resources in an area.
Company towns in the 19th century is a good example of this.

Just turned everyone living there into debt serfs.

The best part about all these different ideologies is how perfect they claim their future will be. You ask a communist, they say their ideology will bring about a perfect future. Ask a natsoc or libertarian. Same answer, my vision is of a perfect future. How naive are these people? Have they learned nothing? The present is built upon the perfect future envisioned yesterday. Today isn't perfect. This should teach us something about of perfection. Like beauty it's in the eye of the beholder. Perfection shifts and moves from one person's point of view to another's point of view. It's impossible to achieve universal perfection, but that won't stop a true zealot from pushing their brand of perfection on the rest of the world. Ideologues were a mistake. They create misery when they force others to conform to their ideals.

Because resources are infinite and our supposed rich guy is mentally retarded. Plus this doesn’t even take into account logistics or anything else, this is not the GE things don’t miraculously materialize in your pocket, someone with established infrastructure, storage and distributing capabilities can easily take out any smaller distributors, that I’d what supermarkets do. Not to mention if our rich guy has the money he can purchase the means of production to these products to further monopolize the industry

We don’t need to imagine what that utopian world would be like. Everything you just laid out is exactly what is happening right now, in real life, WITH and BECAUSE OF ever increasing state power. No, of course it’s not one man/business, but it is indeed an extremely small group of people that is in control of a larger and larger portion of this planet and it’s resources. Corporations are merely an extension of government and are a no-go in ancap. But keep believing that private enterprise is the problem, and not the central banks and their puppets in the gubb’ment

Confirmed for not even entertaining stefs basic introductions. His assertion is that this problem exists, but with govt you will get it Everytime. Similar to korwin mikke says about monarchism, the dice roll is more favorable to benevolence than democracy's majority mediocracy

Loan sharks exist too, if you're stupid enough to use one... Those company towns only controlled the resources for ONE town. 10 miles away there were other towns, not owned by them. Unions have monopolized resources in a much larger way than company towns ever did.

>Ideologues were a mistake. They create misery when they force others to conform to their ideals.
That is precisely the beauty behind "no step on snek".
You can literally do whatever you want, as long as you individually bear the full costs and benefits for your actions.

So we fix libertarianism with anarchy? Whats next we fix an ideologys faults by making them a diffrent ideology? Nazisms strive for strenght surviveing would be better if it was just anarchy
