So any Anarchists here besides me?

I don't speak for anyone other than myself but I think that concen has a fair number of people onboard with an Anarchistic perspective.

Under the basic pretexts of Agorist philosophy, as you see it, would Al Gore's venture capitalist profits off the back of swine flu be acceptable? And if not, why not?

Don't misunderstand, I like a lot of the ideas of counter-economics..I just think there are holes in the theory too. Take a look at Blackwater and Gazprom's army, for instance.

I present them for example in terms of analogs of what I believe the philosophy would also predicate the existence of, if it were in practice without a counterweight.. ergo not the answer.but hey, jmo B):)

Perhaps the biggest problem with this statement is that you assume corporations will exist in an Anarcho-Capitalist environment. They wouldn't as Corporations are government created entity's. Likely blackwater and the flu shot makers would at least for a time cease to exist.
If Al gore was committing fraud he would be persecuted,if he continued he would likely get shot.

Blackwater is a defense contractor and would have a lot of competition since there would be no "army" not to mention that fact that undoubtedly every man,women, and many a child would be armed. Blackwater would be no threat. Monopolies on anything including fire power are impossible without government,they exist only temporarily until competition emerges.

Agorism is the answer for the now for people like me who want to see an Anarcho-Capitalist society in the future and in the mean time live as close to being in one.
