Re: Why the Left Fears Libertarianism

Liberartarians can only exist within a conventional society

A society based on liberatarianism will naturally collapse

I proppose this post as the hand waving of the day.

There is an profound mathematical analogy I could present to illustrate my original criticism.
For a flavour of this refer to Langron's Lambda parameter in the study cellular automata.

The most productive societies occur at the boundary between authoritarian and anarchy.
A society based on pure liberartarianism will inevitably collapse through decadence.

Human behaviour is not subject to pure mathematics. In addition, no such societies have hardly existed including anarchy.

Actually there are good examples of market anarchy in Iceland during the middle ages (as David Friedman explains) and in the south of Asia for 300 hundred years. A anarchic society that lived, prospered and defended themselves from invarsors for 300 years... thats hardly the "inevitably collapse" that bonker is talking about. Most democracies dont last half that time.
