Hans-Hermann Hoppe: A World Without Theft

[@errorcode99]

without theft, so to speak. 🚁🚁🚁🚁🚁🚁🚁🚁

[@errorcode99]

That being said, I hope everyone enjoyed this! The Mises institute is a fantastic source of knowledge.

How come he forgot the most important rule, No one should own more if there is someone who does not own enough for their dignified existence?

[@rwalkenhorst]

When people praise cops for being heroes, I want to ask them whether, after hiring a private security company to protect a loved one, they would consider the company's employees heroic if all they did was to catch the murderer after he had already killed said loved one. I suspect they would not, and instead would be demanding their money back and blabbing to every consumer reporter in town about what a crappy job the company did.

[@kylehasgeniusbits]

Roland W good point

[@rwalkenhorst]

"...mercenaries, hired by the rich, to beat up whoever they didn't like." Pretty good description of the state's police and military. A private security company goes bankrupt if it does not provide actual - as opposed to imaginary - protection.

[@rwalkenhorst]

All of this is extraneous to my point. Do you really think the government police protect you? Really?

[@rwalkenhorst]

Ah, I see. You get to decide what is relevant in a thread that I started.

[@kylehasgeniusbits]

Interesting pair of options, you must be well read on the entire world's history and philosophy to have come up with that dichotomy. Surely you aren't just posting something on the internet without much knowledge and thought about it.

All the “garden of Eden” mentions in the beginning had me expecting some backwards views. On the contrary, this is a brilliant lecture, revolutionary yet pragmatic, And clearly explained with well thought out details. Bravo.

Wow, finally Hoppe speaks at a normal speed. I thought he couldn't do it. :)

[@Bunjee77]

Dr. Castor lol. Hate to disappoint you but I am 95% sure the audio has been sped up. Unless he lectures from an exact script

[@dirtyharrycat6639]

HOPPE. The official trolls are foaming at the mouth! Keyword: HOPPE brought them. They have fear in their hearts! Individuals, we are winning!

[@abramgaller2037]

The Dr.Hoppe world is a nice place ----how do we transition to it?

[@bbiggie97]

Great question -- views on how to achieve this society differ. But it seems to me and many others that the best mode of transitioning is through a peaceful convincing to the rest of the population that government is immoral, inconsistent, and inefficient. When people believe that we no longer need government, it will fade away in a slow but effective manner, and the public sector will develop into the private.

[@abramgaller2037]

That is interesting.Publicly disseminated information may be the solution.

#voluntaryism

[@abramgaller2037]

Can voluntarism ever be popularized?

[@magnus4g63]

I hope so :) I would argue that it already is popular (to an extend) as most people rely on voluntary interaction in their daily lives rather than threats of violence, the challenge is to make people apply this moral principle / behavior in all aspects of societal dynamics and thus oppose all forms of coercion/government ... if this is actually doable is about the numbers i guess, and it not looking too good as people sink deeper and deeper into statism :/

[@livenotbylies]

How does HHH explain the disfunction of private health insurance in the US? (Sincere question)

[@chesterg.791]

I think the biggest issue is it would take years for insurance companies, healthcare, security/policing, etc.. for the free market to build infastructure to effectivley replace the government institutions and regulatory regime. Everything would have to be done over a long period of time.

[@zigoter2185]

Not really. The infrastructure is already there, aswell as insurance companies.

[@mikexhotmail]

The ability to track anyone anytime of phone service companies alone could be used by those insurance companies to operate pretty efficiently without the need of deadly force. ps. As long as the public ok with that.

[@chesterg.791]

@@reasonerenlightened2456 define dignified. Completely subjective. Did cavemen have a dignified existence?

[@reasonerenlightened2456]

​@@chesterg.791 Why don't you tell me what is considered a dignified existence in the 21-st century? Also, the market is perfectly capable of providing the sales data about what the people purchase the most to ensure a dignified existence in the 21-st century. It is not a rocket science. Do you need an example of how it works for the cave man and the 21-st century man... or the 50-th century man?

[@hithere7433]

Whether a consequence is absurd or not is not an argument for or against preferences. To declare a priori that a consequence is immoral and is therefore a moral rule is begging the question.

A world without theft is a world without human beings.

Jo Al most humans don't steal. At least not directly

No, it is a world with thinking human beings who separate themselves from animals by civilizing.

[@aussie_anarchist]

Outside of economics and Capitalism I really dislike Hans Hermann Hoppe. I think he is an authoritarian who moved the libertarian movement in an entirely negative direction.

[@ronpaulrevered]

Ridiculous. How do you figure?

[@aussie_anarchist]

Hans "there will be no gay people or Jews in a libertarian society" Hermann Hoppe Hans "Democrats and Communists don't have freedom of speech" Hermann Hoppe Hans "separate and segregate the people by skin colour" Hermann Hoppe

[@rod6722]

What's authoritarian as long as everybody's property rights are strictly respected ? (strong respect for property rights being the most basic rule of a libertarian society) Authoritarianism requires a state, Hoppe is a hardcore AnCap.

[@aussie_anarchist]

How is he going to "physically remove" all of the gays, Jews, blacks, Asians, Spanish, Democrats and Communists without a State?

[@dons123111]

Without Hoppe, the libertarian movement is dead. He's the only reason why I come to the Mises channel.
