Theme: Cooperation

—“(I don’t want to pay x) Taxes”—
Well then you can leave. The truth is that it is quite costly to produce order, rule of law, property rights, cooperative institutions at every scale, and to suppress human pervasive immorality at every sale while doing so. If you find it more costly to leave, then you are de facto saying that you prefer the current condition to the available alternatives – and of course are not able to create alternatives by yourself.

Now, you could say that many of us are enduring economic challenges today, but that has nothing to do with fiat currency and everything to do with the 20th century and the mistakes and experiments in it, combined especially with the postwar strategy, failure to exit it, and immigration that vastly suppresses wages, combined with offshoring industsry that gutted the lower middle, working, and laboring classes.

Rights obligations and inalienations under the natural law of individual sovereignty in display word and deed are not abitrary but necessary for competitive survival. The operating system for government is that law, a constitution to administer it, and the legislation, and regulation resulting from it.

There is no insurer of those things other than men with weapons, delivering a just and lawful demand, under the natural and common law, for redress of grievances, carrying rope for the noose, or wood for the guillotine, and fuel for the fires. If you are not willing to insure all others as required for the reciprocal exchange of defense (insurance) of those natural, common, rights obligations and alienations, then you have no rights whatsoever than others grant you by doing so.

This is not a philosophical statement. It is simply the science of human behavior in any condition where we are to possess the sovereignty in our demonstrated interests – reciprocal defense of that sovrereignty by force of arms, limiting us and the state to reciprocity in isplay workd and deed and markets for voluntary cooperation, mediated by the court, who suppresses all irreciprocity whether intentional or accidental.

Cheers.
