(...) I absolutely agree that major corporations more often than not are run for the benefit of management and not the stockholders. They do it in a variety of ways, too.

On my way home from work today, I was thinking about government structures, and had some interesting ideas, so I offer them for your digestion: The first thought was: If we strive to attain a Libertopia, is there any need for state governments? I (...) (24 years ago, 30-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: LP POINT 1
(...) You are, off course, assuming a linear scale. I'd view it as logarithmic. (...) One of the big criticisms of the LP argument is that they harp on too much about the evils of "Big Government", without tempering that sentiment with a reflection (...)

		Re: Will Libertopia cause the needy to get less?
(...) I agree, not all selfishness is bad, yet I believe it to be the root of most of what ails us. Any crime or perversion can be sifted down to an illicit focus on meeting a selfish desire. Again, our freedom only exists in our ability to respect (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: Will Libertopia cause the needy to get less?
(...) I like Libertarianism...on paper. In reality, it seems to rely on "enlightened self-interest", which sounds fine again...on paper. The stand about "Yes, Libertarianism would allow racism (and then the rush to get the rest out) (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: Will Libertopia cause the needy to get less?
(...) The idea that any system will/can get rid of poor starving folks is naive, at best. It is impossible to do away with poverty. Mainly because in some, if not most, instances it is self-imposed. Some people just do not have the desire or courage (...) (24 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: The 1st....

		Re: From Harry Browne
