Individualism is untestable which is why it’s meaningless. Sovereignty on the other hand is perfectly testable.

You wanna see what the 21st century Judge Dredd looks like? He looks like a Propertarian. The new inquisition.

EVERYTHING CAN BE PRICED IN WATTS (OR CALORIES)
—“The market always works, but it’s not always priced in dollars. Eventually, perhaps everything can be priced in watts (for instance, Steve-seconds is convertible to watts, but each person has a different conversion rate), and imposed costs will be as easy to avoid as saying “sorry, you requesting that I learn new pronouns for your gender dysmorphia will likely cost me at least a few hours in my lifetime in discussion, corrections and explanations, and if it normalizes your disorder and expands it, even if you paid me for that time, the cost to my descendants in confusing them when it comes to producing the next generation for spreading intelligent life in the universe is certainly not worth the exchange you are offering. What exactly do you have to offer me in exchange for these enormous costs your gender dysmorphia is imposing?”— Steve Pender

Market Demand for an insurer of last resort creates demand for the state. Market demand for sovereignty constrains the state. In the end result, it is the Militia that purchases either insurance or sovereignty. And it is the militia who bears responsibility for its purchases.

THERE IS NO TRAGEDY OF THE COMMONS PER SE
There is only a tragedy of the politically managed commons, but there is no tragedy of the privately managed commons.
Read Ostrom and stop using that term when you don’t understand it. A government commons is abused, a private one is not.

The west differs from the east. We never conflated law with other fields. And the skin of the loan IN put = the warranty OUT put.
