Quote from: pine on March 09, 2012, 02:44 amThe great irony of this black market, is it is teaching us capitalists about the necessity for having some manner of regulation e.g. the B$ barrier to entry ;DQuote from: anarcho47 on March 09, 2012, 02:55 amCertainly true. The more ironic thing is that people confuse the private-"law" and private regulations that completely private/voluntary/Anarcho-Capitalist associations automatically impose on people. This is DPR's property. Under anarcho-capitalism he could demand we all send photo proof that we are wearing pink birthday hats with ribbons coming out the top, and ban us for using the word "upside" in a sentence in the forums. However natural, voluntary market forces dictate those would be unreasonable, yet his desire to keep earning profits have compelled him to create a spin-off where the pro-weapons faction of the community can enjoy his property, and the the non-weapon faction can stay over on SR.The market has FAR more powerful regulations than the artificial and always-gamed stumbling blocks the state always throws up.Yes. To regulate the market, you must change with the pace of the market, whether fast or slow. Governmental regulations in markets in particular are perpetually reactive. Either behind the times or over the top, they never quite seem to hit the mark.Quote from: anarcho47 on March 09, 2012, 02:55 amI will have you at least a barebones-minarchist before our time here is done, Pine ;)Threats! :P ::)
