No one owes anything to anyone other than equal defense of what they have earned

No one owes anything to anyone other than equal defense of what they have earned by means of reciprocal cooperation. You nor anyone else has a claim on anyone else other than defense against those who would harm you and what you have demonstrated an interest in through reciprocal exchagne.

I don’t owe you. “Society” is another word for “me and him and him”. And so we don’t owe you anything. Instead if you do not like the terms, you are, like any other, welcome to depart and find people you prefer to cooperate with on your terms.

Your access to the polity is granted only by not imposing costs upon the demonstrated interests of others obtained by reciprocal exchange.

In other words you have access to a polity in exchange for avoiding crimes.

Those who contribute to a polity for the purpose of producing public capital of course, then logically, in defense of their i nterests, have say in how it is used for the benefit of all who have access to the commons.

No on is responsible for you. Period.
