While small-scale black markets may function in secrecy, large-scale black markets usually require bribes to officials to look the other way.","author":"Thomas Sowell","tags":["anarcho-capitalism","anarchy","ancap","austrian-economics","austrian-school-of-economics","capitalism","coercion","evil","free-market","freedom","government","liberty","regulations","socialism","statism","voluntaryism"],"id":5716,"author_id":"Thomas+Sowell"},{"text":"To be sure, I am not speaking about Christian equality, whose real name is equity; but about this democratic and social equality, which is nothing but the canonization of envy and the chimera of jealous ineptitude. This equality was never anything but a mask which could not become reality without the abolition of all merit and virtue.","author":"Charles Forbes René de Montalembert","tags":["anarcho","anarchy","ancap","capitalism","coercion","communism","free-markets","freedom","government","liberal","libertarian","liberty","non-aggression-principle","socialism","statism","taxation","theft","tyranny","violence","voluntaryism"],"id":12182,"author_id":"Charles+Forbes+Ren%C3%A9+de+Montalembert"},{"text":"Emergencies” have always been the pretext on which the safeguards of individual liberty have eroded.","author":"Friedrich A.

The state, then, is the very institution that puts socialism into action; and as socialism rests on aggressive violence directed against innocent victims, aggressive violence is the nature of any state.","author":"Hans-Hermann Hoppe","tags":["aggression","anarcho-capitalism","anarchy","ancap","austrian-school-of-economics","coercion","collectivism","communism","evil","free-markets","free-trade","freedom","government","individualism","initiation-of-force","laissez-faire","libertarian","liberty","nap","non-aggression-principle","politics","self-ownership","statism","voluntaryism","voluntaryist"],"id":14755,"author_id":"Hans-Hermann+Hoppe"},{"text":"Dear Anarcho-Communist,If you and I ever find ourselves in a stateless society, have no fear.

I'm scared of the thousands of millions of people that hallucinate them to be 'authority', and so do their bidding, and pay for their empires, and carry out their orders. I don't care if there's one looney with a stupid moustache. He's not a threat if the people do not believe in 'authority'.","author":"Larken Rose","tags":["anarchy","ancap","delusion","freedom","government","libertarian","liberty","statism","superstition","voluntaryism"],"id":17972,"author_id":"Larken+Rose"},{"text":"As I explain in 'What It Means to be an Anarcho-Capitalist', to be an anarchist simply means you oppose aggression, and you realize the state necessarily commits aggression. If you are not an anarchist, it means you either condone aggression, or think the state does not necessarily commit aggression. As you say you are not an anarchist, can you please tell us which one describes you? Are you in favor of aggression (like socialists and criminals are)? Or, do you think the state does not commit aggression (like children brainwashed by government schools think)?","author":"N.

Now some of them do, obviously, and I’m against that. I’m in favor of reason over whim. As far as I’m concerned, and I think the rest of the movement, too, we are anarcho-capitalists. In other words, we believe that capitalism is the fullest expression of anarchism, and anarchism is the fullest expression of capitalism. Not only are they compatible, but you can’t really have one without the other. True anarchism will be capitalism, and true capitalism will be anarchism.","author":"Murray N.
