WELCOME to ANARCHAST , YOUR HOME for ANARCHY on the INTERNET ! DEFINITION of FREE MARKET ANARCHISM or ANARCHO CAPITALISM © (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarcho-capitalism) Is an umbrella term for a number of ideologies which believe that there should be NO GOVERNMENT and a free market economic system. As OPPOSED to anarcho socialism, anarcho communism and anarcho syndicalism which focus on shifting ownership of property, companies etc. to the masses. Anarcho socialist types believe Property is theft while anarcho capitalists believe PROPERTY IS FREEDOM ! Anarcho capitalists believe that a free market is the only truly anarchist economic system. The concept was popularized by Murray ROTHBARD (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murray_Rothbard) of the Austrian School of Economics ! Ludwig von Mises en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwig_von_Mises ___________________________________________ LETS GET RID of the STATE by Jeffrey TUCKER © The state is a PARASYTICAL institution that exists to EXPLOIT subjects, to protect an ILLEGITIMATE ruling class and to MONOPOLIZE resources and territories ! The state in all times and all places wants a population of despairing, dreary, hopeless, and weighted-down people. Why ? Because such people dont do anything. They are predictable, categorizable, pliable, and essentially powerless. Such people offer no surprises, threaten no change, destabilize nothing. This is the ideal world that the bureaucrats, the plutocrats, and the technocrats desire. It makes their life easy and the path clear. Today is just yesterday and tomorrow - forever. This is the machine that the state wants to manage, a world of down-in-the-dumps and obedient citizens of the society they think they own. In contrast, hope upsets the prevailing order. It sees things that dont yet exist. It acts on a promise of a future different from today. It plays with the uncertainty of the future and dares imagine that ideals can become reality. Those who think this way are a threat to every regime. Why ? Because people who think this way eventually come to act this way. They resist. They rebel. They overthrow. And yet look around: we see progress everywhere. What does this imply ? It implies that non-compliance is the human norm. People cannot be forever pressed into a mold of the states making. The future will happen and it will be shaped by those who dare to break bad, dare to disagree, and dare to take the risk to overthrow what is in favor of what can be. I realized all this some years ago, and then when you begin to look around and see how the power elites do not and cannot rule, you discover the whole secret to social order. It turns out that they are not really in control, not finally. Then it all becomes fun. It is a blast to see the powerful topple from the thrones they want to sit in so badly. It is a thrill to use and hold technologies that no one among the elite ever gave permission to exist. It is a kick to see how the market -- meaning human beings acting with vision toward the future -- is so constantly outwitting the arrogant planners who want to freeze history, control our minds and wreck our world. To defy them is so simple: just imagine and future better than the present. You become a enemy of the state, and you begin to love every minute of it.
