- Comment on Is geolibertarianism left wing or right wing? 1 month ago:
You can have all of that without an authoritarian government. Even higher taxes are irrelevant as a guaranteed minimum income would offset 70-80% of the population’s tax losses and give them a minimum income. We could replace the property tax with a lvt to raise money for public social programs. We could create state chartered non-profit NGOs that raise money through fees. As revenues generated from these NGOs increase the minimum income increases.
We should tax corporations more with a minimum global corporate tax. Corporations are not people. There should be a tax on unrealized capital gains. 25% inheritance tax. There should be a tax on stock buy backs for corporate entities. Repeal the Taft Hartley act. Ban Medicare and Medicaid funding to for-profit corporations. Have a single payer healthcare option.
We should use direct democracy like Switzerland does and a national referendum process and a national recall for federal employees. There should be term limits on Congress and the Supreme Court. Heavily restrict the power of the executive. Abolish broad presidential immunity. Plead with congress to abolish ICE. Use the Wyoming rule to determine the number members of the US House.

- Comment on If libertarian socialists are on the left and anarcho-capitalists are on the right what ideology is in the middle? 2 months ago:
I am just saying I don’t know if eliminating all hierarchies is possible while humans are wired to seek social status. What mammal doesn’t use dominance to defend resources and territory? I agree that most hierarchies should be abolished but I am questioning if this is even possible in the real world.

Why would it not make sense?

Social media is built on social status and comparison.

- Comment on What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA? 2 months ago:
Musk receives govenment contracts and government subsities. Trump is using the government to terrorize people. Without the government he couldn’t deport people into foreign dungeons. Banishing legal residents into a foreign dungeon without due process is illiberal. Restricting free trade with massive tariffs is illiberal. Using his position as president to pressure a television network into firing a host is illiberal. The government could stop giving Musk subsities and increase the minimum tax on his companies.

Can social welfare programs be rolled out mostly (but not completely) outside of the state through ngos and non-profits?

So are you saying humans don’t seek social status?

There are a lot of hierarchies that are undesireable.

We should be against the concentration of political and economic power. We should try to expand both positive and negative freedoms of the individual as much as possible for as many people as possible.

- Comment on What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA? 2 months ago:
Musk funded a illiberal president that uses the power of the government to terrorize people with draconian anti-immigration policies and pushes highly destructive import tariffs. How much does Musk receive every year from goverment subsidies and government contracts?

What mammal doesn’t try to establish a hierarchy? We have over 300,000 years of neural programming to seek social status because it increases the odds of reproducing.

Wouldn’t we just create another hierarchy in it’s place? Have fun playing wack a mole.
