Capitalism cannot exist without systemic, mass-scale violence. Ergo, any person who wants to live in a world governed by reason musit be opposed to capitalism.
Bullshit. Capitalism is the only economic system that can succeed without fraud or initiating the use of force. Voluntary trade between free individuals would lead to an incredibly prospeous society. Thankfully, Bitcoin will move us closer to that ideal.
Capitalism without force? Capitalism without fraud? Bullshit indeed! Thank you for prefacing your statement with that honest qualifier!
Please tell me when and where in history EITHER of those two scenarios has existed anywhere other than your imagination. I'd sure love to hear about this mythical capitalist utopia... Maybe I can visit?
Free market capitalism hasn't been tried yet. However, history is replete with examples of how communism, socialism, fascism, and cronyism all inevitably fail. With the separation of money and state that Bitcoin achieves, true free market capitalism may finally have a chance.
