Open in Damus

Its all laid out in Rothbard's "The Ethics of Liberty" and Molyneux's "Practical Anarchy"

Sorry, I'm not seeing it. Rothbard was an An Cap and argued against the State and minarchism. Are you saying he wanted some minimal State? That was not clear when I read that book.

He claims it is stateless and anarchic, but in effect it is not. It is minarchism in effect, only not in name. We all know what happens in minarchism. The state is a monopoly on the use of force. Rothbard proposes a free-market on the use of force, believing the market will self-regulate it.
