Monopoly exists insofar as the freedom of competition is violated, with the freedom of competition being understood as the absence of the initiation of physical force as the preventive of competition. Where there is no initiation of physical force to violate the freedom of competition, there is no monopoly. The freedom of competition is violated only insofar as individuals are excluded from markets or parts of markets by means of the initiation of physical force. Monopoly is thus a market or part of a market reserved to the exclusive possession of one or more sellers by means of the initiation of physical force. It is thus something imposed upon the market from without—by the government. (Private individuals—gangsters—can initiate force to reserve markets only if the government allows it and thereby sanctions it.)Thus, monopoly is not something which emerges from the normal operation of the economic system, and which the government must control.","author":"George Reisman","tags":["anarcho-capitalism","anarchy","ancap","austrian","austrian-school-of-economics","capitalism","coercion","crapitalism","crony","economics","evil","free","freedom","human","laissez-faire","libertarian","liberty","mafia","markets","nap","non-aggression-principle","politics","rights","socialism","statism","taxation","theft","thugs","trade","violation","voluntaryism"],"id":131511,"author_id":"George+Reisman"},{"text":"What is peculiar and novel to our age is that the principal goal of politics in every advanced society is not, strictly speaking, a political one, that is today, it is not concerned with human beings as persons and citizens, but with human bodies. ... In all technologically advanced countries today, whatever political label they give themselves, their policies have, essentially, the same goal: to guarantee to every member of society, as a psychophysical organism, the right to physical and mental health.","author":"W.H.

If those accounts be true, he was the wretch that first began and carried on wars on the score or on the pretence of religion; and under that mask, or that infatuation, committed the most unexampled atrocities that are to be found in the history of any nation. Of which I will state only one instance:When the Jewish army returned from one of their plundering and murdering excursions, the account goes on as follows (Numbers xxxi. 13): 'And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp; and Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle; and Moses said unto them, 'Have ye saved all the women alive?' behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the Lord in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the Lord. Now therefore, 'kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known a man by lying with him; but all the women- children that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for Yourse.","author":"Thomas Paine","tags":["atrocities","atrocity","bible","character","decency","detestable","executioner","horrible","horrid","jewish","moses","murder","plunder","read","the-bible","the-lord","villain","violation","wars-of-religion","wretch"],"id":306563,"author_id":"Thomas+Paine"},{"text":"Violation Of The Law Of Universe Brings Devastation Results To The Society.","author":"Sunday Adelaja","tags":["devastation","law","result","society","universe","violation"],"id":365430,"author_id":"Sunday+Adelaja"},{"text":"If freedom isn't free and people's rights are being violated and suppressed, then Governments have NO need to exist.","author":"ELW-Reta Barnes","tags":["bad","government","people","rights","suppressed","violation"],"id":376623,"author_id":"ELW-Reta+Barnes"},{"text":"He sank back into his black-and-white world, his immobile world of inanimate drawings that had been granted the secret of motion, his death-world with its hidden gift of life. But that life was a deeply ambiguous life, a conjurer's trick, a crafty illusion based on an accidental property of the retina, which retained an image for a fraction of a second after the image was no longer present. On this frail fact was erected the entire structure of the cinema, that colossal confidence game. The animated cartoon was a far more honest expression of the cinematic illusion than the so-called realistic film, because the cartoon reveled in its own illusory nature, exulted in the impossible--indeed it claimed the impossible as its own, exalted it as its own highest end, found in impossibility, in the negation of the actual, its profoundest reason for being. The animated cartoon was nothing but the poetry of the impossible--therein lay its exhilaration and its secret melancholy. For this willful violation of the actual, while it was an intoxicating release from the constriction of things, was at the same time nothing but a delusion, an attempt to outwit mortality. As such it was doomed to failure. And yet it was desperately important to smash through the constriction of the actual, to unhinge the universe and let the impossible stream in, because otherwise--well, otherwise the world was nothing but an editorial cartoon.","author":"Steven Millhauser","tags":["accidental","ambiguous","animated","being","black","black-and-white","cartoon","cinema","confidence","constriction","death","death-world","delusion","desperately","desperation","doom","doomed","draw","drawings","expression","failure","fraction","frail","frailty","game","gift","hidden","honest","honesty","illusion","illusory","image","immobile","importance","important","impossible","inanimate","intoxicating","life","melancholy","mortality","motion","nature","outwit","poetry","present","property","realism","realistic","reason","release","secret","sink","structure","trick","universe","violation","white","willful","world"],"id":420144,"author_id":"Steven+Millhauser"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":8,"pages":1}}
