ARGUMENTS AGAINST SOMETHING AREN’T ALL THAT USEFUL UNLESS YOU ALSO HAVE ARGUMENT

ARGUMENTS AGAINST SOMETHING AREN’T ALL THAT USEFUL UNLESS YOU ALSO HAVE ARGUMENTS FOR SOMETHING ELSE.

This is libertarianism’s problem. A failure to provide a solution to the problem of institutions both formal and informal.

Without formal institutions you have a religion. Not a replacement for the state.

Institutions create norms.

Property is a norm.

Property was created by the application of violence.

Propertarianism gives us the tools with which to create formal institutions in heterogeneous populations.

Propertarianism completes libertarianism.
