Yes, monarchy is forced reallocation of resources and would hamper the market. It is indeed not welfare-state socialism to a great extent, as the force helps almost exclusively a group of already resourceful people, but both this and the usual type of socialism have both an unnatural aristocracy and a group of peasants who benefit from it in return for bootlicking. That said, it is a thousand times preferred to democracy, which is the absolute state of the state.


 No.91495

Capitalists extract profit from their assets. This is not socialism. A monarch extracting profit from his kingdom is in no sense socializing anything. You think the very concept of property is Marxism. Retarded.


 No.91498

>>91495

The force is what makes it anything else than 100% pure, unfiltered, "the original recipe"-capitalism. Pure capitalism and "pure" socialism are on two ends of the economic axis. If you only wanna call those two outliers socialism and capitalism, and call everything else something else (I suggest mafism), that's up to you. If you, as most of us do, call everything in between a mixture, such as crony capitalism or state capitalism, that's probably for the best. If you, however, simply call anything that isn't "pure" socialism capitalism, that's an issue of equating late soviet with ancapistan.


 No.91501

>>91498

>The force is what makes it anything else than 100%

There is no initiation of force when it comes to contracts and defending property. Additionally the claim that it is only capitalism should there be no initiation of force is a limited definition such as when gommies go "b-b-but it was not real!".

Sure, if the kingdom was the king's private property. But, it isn't (at least not legitimately). Either the monarch has seized the property by force, claimed the property as subject to his expropriation without claiming it as his, or it's a business and fits completely in with ancap. This is what most people who strawman ancap with the "change your name to goverment© and taxes to rent™"-meme don't consider.

Sure. What does it have to do with your claim about "property can only be stolen"?

>Someone got it, they rightfully owned it, then someone killed them and took it with war / etc.

Or they died. Or gifted it. Or traded. Or abandoned.

>It would be easier if you at least accepted property as a concept you fucking commie.

I did. I just did not accept that stealing is the basis of the concept.

>but with efficient markets I hope that those that don't are beat.

There's place for many, you don't have to expand like crazy. Personal relationships and reputation offer a niche even for those who would be too small and weak otherwise.

>Look faggot i'm not the one complaining about property being used

But you are. Or was it not you who advocated that legitimate property has to be stolen.

>Wrong there are fucking hundreds of them all competing.

Monopolizing their job by isolating a region from others is not a competition, fag.

More like violently interfere and rob.


 No.91580

>>91577

>What does it have to do with your claim about "property can only be stolen"?

Literally never claimed that. Only that almost everything anyone has these days was stolen from someone else, who stole it from someone else going back thousands of years.

>Or they died. Or gifted it. Or traded. Or abandoned.

Yeah they gifted something stolen from someone else, or traded something they made from stolen goods. I don't give a fuck about this though IDK why you are being autistic here. We are talking about state capitalism here not the history of property.

>that stealing is the basis of the concept.

Of course its not the base. Just that most things that anyone owns now is.

>advocated that legitimate property has to be stolen.

Again never said this, nor do I believe it.

>Monopolizing their job by isolating a region from others is not a competition

Move you faggot. Millions of third worlders are doing it right now. Countries want the best and brightest, the biggest corporations, etc. So many things to compete for. Gotta get that revenue up.

What countries do not want is other countries or other independent entities forming on their territory.

It's not your property. You rent it from the state. What the fuck do you think property taxes are. Don't pay them and you get evicted.

>What countries do not want is other countries or other independent entities forming on their territory.

Yes not being stolen from is pretty nice. After you still have your property then want to profit from it. What kind of faggot are you to not get that.

>Just because it was stolen does not mean it is not legitimate now.

It doesn't mean it's legitimate because it was stolen. Even less so if they are actively preventing the person who they stole it from from regaining it.

>It's not your property.

It is, the state is just a band of thugs that rob it. It doesn't mean that if i come and rape your mother and kill your dog that your property becomes mine.

>Yes not being stolen from is pretty nice

But countries do keep military to prevent others from stealing what they haven't yet. And locked borders and currency and international transactions to prevent their subjects from changing it.

>companies only compete because of their inability to be a monopoly

Literally true, you fucking mongoloid. It's not a fucking game.

>And its literally true for countries AKA not a real fucking point.

And countries are monopolies that deprive people from their property and freedom because of that. How is that so hard to grasp?

>Not BECAUSE

Why else? You do not advocate for any another reason and ignore legitimate methods to acquire property.

>Of course you defend your property.

More like keep those who you rob under your control. You do not call a band of thugs that rob you every now and then your owners or owners of your property.

>they do not have nearly enough control over their property

They do not interfere onto other's property and do not infringe on people's freedom of ownership and association. They do not operate through voluntary transactions and contracts. They do not use violence to remove competition. They are not a monopoly controlling a large group of subject on a certain piece of land.

<hurr durr it's okay to steal from the property owner because rent is theft

>They do not operate through voluntary transactions and contracts.

There is no moral problem with being INVOLUNTARILY EVICTED. Property is what matters. If it is not your property you are not being deprived of anything. And it is not your property. You are a renter. In countries such as hong kong and singapore this is actually done explicitly. NO property is sold, all property is on a 50 years lease from the government that is the property owner.
