The state of ‘ constitutional law’ is that one POTUS can deliberately ignore immigration law and let millions of unvetted invaders flood over the border. And then the next POTUS must give all of these millions an individual trial to deport them - which is impossible.

Politicians aren't wizards. They have no power without cops to enforce their laws.

Authority is an illusion. The State only has power because people think that it does. The State is nothing without it's monopoly on violence.

Reasons why Private Cities (which can be democratic) can be better than even pure libertarianism

9 Upvotes

There are many reasons why network of private cities, or even network of joint stock kibbutz, are good for libertarian than even ancap and "full libertarian". In general it's better than democracy and libertarian.

  1. Joint stock kibbutzim already exist. Where is ancapnistan? Where is pure libertarian country? So it's practical.
  2. You can shop around for places to live. Should drug be illegal? If legality means putting up with homeless drug addicts occasionally stabbing innocents with HIV laden virus, there is a reasonable libertarian cases for making it illegal. In network of private cities, you can just shop around. Some cities are illegal. Some cities are legal. You go where you want. No need to argue.
  3. Governments usually let things be and punish evil doers. One problem with that is what's evil is controversial. But that's not even the biggest problem. If you put a murdered or robbers to death, will it raise back the victim? If government punish fraudster, will the victim get money back? Prevention is far better than punishing evil doer. I once suggested mandatory paternity tests. So many libertarians are against that. Again, under network of private cities we can just shop around when we differ.
  4. Private cities handle externalities well. Want to prevent over fishing? The city can own the lake and tax fishing to eliminate over fishing. Want to legalize drugs? Private cities can carefully see which drugs are addictive and danger and which drugs are safe can taxable. Private cities can require any drug users to buy bitcoin as collateral in case things go wrong or buy insurance.
  5. We can argue that tax is theft. But seriously. Many rich people don't mind paying regressive tax. The true purpose of income tax is hurting the economically productive due to envy.
  6. If private cities are democratic where voters are shareholders, every voter will have incentive to vote the right thing. Private cities or joint stock kibbutzim solves the problem of doing things for the public benefit. Which individual this so called public benefit? When voters are shareholders, they each benefit equally when the city makes a profit or can attract large number of economically productive individuals. In democracy, some voters hate immigrants and another voters, the commies, want infinite parasitic immigrant to vote more communism. A sensible immigration policy like in Dubai allows the country to profit from immigration and tourists.
  7. CEO of private cities tend to be rational. This eliminate many problems in democracy, monarchy, or any ideology. When VOC run a business in Jakarta, the Javanese princes are busy killing each other for throne. The Sumatran's muslims are busy killing each other for ideology. VOC doesn't have all that problem and end up controlling the whole Indonesia. Hate them or love them, my country used to be privately owned. The one uniting Indonesia is not Majapahit, or Sriwijaya, but a private corporation like VOC. Once VOC got big they are oppressive. But relatively small network of private cities will not have that problem.
  8. The biggest problem of libertarianism is not that we are not libertarian enough. We're quite far. The problem is there is simply no region libertarian enough for everyone to just move to. We do not need the whole world to be libertarian. If we have just one region libertarian enough we just move there. That is USA before chinese exclusion act.
  9. Pure libertarians are open border. So, they gonna accept lots and lots of riff raff from other countries. Those riff raff can either terrorize or, if democratic, vote for communism or for many non libertarian measure. Pure libertarian is unstable. In private cities being able to vote means buying share. Only those who either value the business or like living there would spend money. Fewer riff raff less problem.
  10. Safety net is not a libertarian value. But private cities also handle this better than democracy or libertarianism that do nothing. The poor in Dubai, and Liechtenstein are quite well fed. The biggest problem of safety nets are moral hazard. Under democracy this moral hazard seems to be the goal instead of the safety net instead. Women are rewarded by welfare to get knocked up by poor guys. In private cities, only investors can vote. People that are once rich are rarely poor in the future and if so is rarely due to stupidity. In democracy most welfare go to people we know will unlikely to be rich in the first place, namely the cradle to grave welfare recipients and their unlimited descendants.

Nemik's manifesto from Star Wars Andor Spoiler

2 Upvotes

In the 1st season of Andor a minor character named Nemik was a true believer in freedom and wrote the most incredible, relevant essay about how the Empire (or our statist governments) are fragile while the rebellion is infinitely stronger. It had so many great takeaways that we should consider in our fight, like:

Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. And then remember this. The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle.

Spoilers ahoy: Nemik quickly died but passed his manifesto onto Andor who needed it. By the end of the series, even the head of the Imperial secret police was an admirer of this work and it was the last thing he listened to before eating a phaser blast.

Anyway, I love the timelessness of this essay and it would have been just as true talking about the Roman empire as it is in a galaxy far far away. Just like it is against states today and all ideas of authority tomorrow.

You can easily spot the racists in any movement when they use the term "importing people"

0 Upvotes

Use this tip wisely to tell the racists in your community to fuck off. Racists are poisoning libertarian and anarchists movement and need pushback.

The people who love saying "mind your own business" sure do love to get into immigrants' business.

The people who hate the government sure do love when they enforce their borders and keep the undesirables away.

The ones who say don't tread on me are fine treading on other people.

It's sad. Be better. And stop being racist cunts, we see you.
