Poverty rate in Argentina and Milei
Many people have pointed out the high poverty rate in Argentina. We have had some statistics coming out like these: https://x.com/ODSAUCA/status/1865524122458960174 (It should be noted that the dotted lines are only projections.) However there is obviously a question of causation, and attributing the problem and cause of the spike in poverty to some factor(s.) Some in the anti-Milei camp say the cause is austerity. Those in the pro-Milei camp or simply those who favor markets say that the […]

TGIF: The Unfortunately Forgotten Summer
Some things haven’t changed since 1883. In that year Yale University professor William Graham Sumner, the anti-imperialist laissez-faire liberal and pioneer of American sociology, noticed that “we are told every day that great social problems stand before us and demand a solution, and we are assailed by oracles, threats, and warnings in reference to those problems.” Then, as now, self-styled progressives announced that the sky would fall unless the problem that had most recently caught their fancy was […]

Because you are fighting for utopia against enemies who are trying […]

A month before the presidential election, 60 Minutes aired an interview with the Democratic nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris, that was edited to make her response to a question about Israel “more succinct,” as the show’s producers put it. But Donald Trump, then the Republican nominee and now the president-elect, complained that “her REAL ANSWER WAS CRAZY, OR DUMB, so they actually REPLACED it with another answer in order to save her or, at least, make her look […]

People leaving propaganda on your property- how are we gonna arrange this in ancapistan? How can we mitigate it in the real world now? I’m fucking tired of it
Some idiot left anti-vaccine bullshit in my car door and put the burden of disposal on me without my consent. I don’t want to hear your opinions on this crap either so don’t bother, it’s not relevant. In an ancap world this would not fall under “free speech” as it violates my property rights. Same with people leaving religious nonsense in my mailbox, or putting a political ad on my door. Just leave me the fuck alone. Buy […]
