“In a covenant...among proprietor and community tenants for the purpose of protecting their private property, no such thing as a right to free (unlimited) speech exists, not even to unlimited speech on one’s own tenant-property. One may say innumerable things and promote almost any idea under the sun, but naturally no one is permitted to advocate ideas contrary to the very covenant of preserving and protecting private property, such as democracy and communism. There can be no tolerance toward democrats and communists in a libertarian social order. They will have to be physically separated and removed from society.” EvilFreedomLibertyViolenceLibertarianSocialismCommunismAnarchyAggressionCoercionAnarchistSelf DefenseStatismVoluntaryismLaissez FaireNon Aggression PrincipleAncapAnarcho CapitalismInitiation Of ForceVoluntaryist Author:Hans-Hermann Hoppe
“There can be no socialism without a state, and as long as there is a state there is socialism. 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.” GovernmentEvilPoliticsFreedomLibertyLibertarianCommunismAnarchyIndividualismAggressionCoercionCollectivismFree TradeStatismVoluntaryismLaissez FaireNon Aggression PrincipleAncapAnarcho CapitalismAustrian School Of EconomicsNapFree MarketsSelf OwnershipInitiation Of ForceVoluntaryist Book:A Theory of Socialism and Capitalism: Economics, Politics, and Ethics Source: A Theory of Socialism and Capitalism: Economics, Politics, and Ethics

“La plus importante réforme monétaire que l’on puisse espérer serait l’abolition de toutes les banques centrales et un retour à une situation qu’ont vécu les humains de tous temps où l’argent est une commodité d’échange qui ne peut être produite qu’à un coût élevé, tel qu’en or ou en argent, par le marché. À nouveau, pas de monopole dans la production monétaire mais bien une compétition de cette production monétaire afin de ne pas pouvoir la créer à partir de rien.” FreedomMoneyCapitalismLibertarianAssociationFree MarketFrenchFederal ReserveStatismVoluntaryismLaissez FaireCitationAnarcho CapitalismLibertéLibreCapitalismeVoluntaryistAnarchieéTatismeMarchéAnarnchyLibertés IndividuellesLibre éChange Author:Hans-Hermann Hoppe
“So what? Why should an a priori proof of the libertarian property theory make any difference? Why not engage in aggression anyway?” Why indeed?! But then, why should the proof that 1+1=2 make any difference? One certainly can still act on the belief that 1+1=3. The obvious answer is “because a propositional justification exists for doing one thing, but not for doing another.” But why should we be reasonable, is the next come-back. Again, the answer is obvious. For one, because it would be impossible to argue against it; and further, because the proponent raising this question would already affirm the use of reason in his act of questioning it. This still might not suffice and everyone knows that it would not, for even if the libertarian ethic and argumentative reasoning must be regarded as ultimately justified, this still does not preclude that people will act on the basis of unjustified beliefs either because they don’t know, they don’t care, or they prefer not to know. I fail to see why this should be surprising or make the proof somehow defective.” PhilosophyFreedomLibertyLibertarianAnarchyRationalityCritical ThinkingStatismVoluntaryismNon Aggression PrincipleAncapAnarcho CapitalismNap Book:The Economics and Ethics of Private Property: Studies in Political Economy and Philosophy Source: The Economics and Ethics of Private Property: Studies in Political Economy and Philosophy
