RE: VJ LIVE! Ep.45: Voluntaryism: The Most Enlightened Philosophy There Is
I agree with what you have there. The issue i see is that as you say ' nobody has a right to force you to help' i may agree with this but the reality of it is that there is a violent government forcing the condition.
The macro is aggressing due to the micro of needs. It's a percentage of the population. Ayn Rand refered to them as moochers. I wouldn't go that far, and it sounds derogatory, but there does exist a faction that want the state to provide infinite services and resources.
I think it becomes a important awareness that a relatively large portion of the population has no interest in free market and a voluntary system, and have no problem aggressing the few that are productive to provide.
I don't see how your addressing that issue. I mean we could be talking 30- 60% of the population.
Let me add that I completely understand if voluntaryism doesn't address the current reality. I just want there to be awareness that there is this area of reality unaddressed by the model.
Where do you get this figure?
Here in the states, I use the blue red maps that showed up in the last presidential election. Population centers tend to be blue everything else tends to be red.
Population centers typically have a economically depressed inner core then a liberal belt, then the suburbs.
The liberal belt is where I typically see the 'needs' based ideology take hold. It typically doesn't survive outside the liberal population belt.
Since the population centers are where a significant portion of the population resides I am running rough estimates. The inner core and the suburbs typically doesn't have enough red population to turn the population centers purple.
