@vytalman Yep. A bunch of private property owners, with their own private armies, running around doing whatever they wanted, fighting for resources, with no authority above them.

 @vytalman Oh yay, feudalism!

@vytalman It has to do with that, mixed with ditching elected politicians, ditching "political drama".

@ssir5927 That's a straight up lie. An absolute monarch privately owns and operates an entire nation. There is no one above the owner. And, you arrive at an absolute monarchy, starting with a bunch of smaller private property owners, with no authority above them, fighting and conquering each other, claiming the losers' lands, and growing into said monarchy.

@vytalman But I do.

@vytalman No. It would be one thing, if all the governments magically signed onto it, and some central global government, like the UN, organized global distribution. And, all the governments using their power to enforce it, within their regions. It would be completely another, to suggest you could ditch elected officials to run and enforce it. That would require almost everyone, at an individual level, voluntarily be onboard. Who is going to stop a group of people who don't care about resources, and think they have some god given right to a piece of land, from taking it? Who is going to stop Puritan loons from trying to spread their "purification", like the Puritans of old? Who is going to make all the people who don't want to do things that way, comply (you'd have about half of Americans ready to fight to not share)?

@ssir5927 Nope. The one at the top owned all the property under them, dinglenut. Everything was 100% privately owned and operated.

@ssir5927 I know just fine. I (King) own 5 apartment buildings. I put a building managers (duke) in charge of each building. They put a floor manager (count) in charge of each floor. They put a couple wing managers (barons) in charge of each wing. Everyone gets a cut of the rents and whatever is produced by the apartment renters, to enforce the rules I make for living on my property. They are all my tenants, even the dukes. In what reality isn't that a 100% privately owned and operated system, with me as the owner?

@vytalman YouTube hid a reply. Short answer: No, I compared ditching elected officials, to being unable to operate and enforce such a thing, and it leading to feudalism.

@ssir5927 YouTube not liking something I'm saying ... You think kings couldn't trade property with other kings, cede property to other kings, or take property from other kings? I don't think you've read an ounce of history. That's not how your so called "unions" worked. The king would try to make sure their most loyal people were the most powerful, and if any others got uppity, they could definitely be taken out, and replaced. It happened all the time. Who do you think was controlling the rent? Kings added new fees for people living on their property, all the time ... for this w-r, for that w-r, for ransoms, etc. You think kings couldn't evict people from their property, unless they tried to k-ll him? People could be hauled off, tossed in prisons, or k-lled, for all kinds of reasons. The king made the rules, laws, for living on his property.

@ssir5927 I literally said they were all tenants to the one on top, that the one on top owned everything. Whatever pressures you think there were on them, they did what they thought was best for them, and they made the laws. That the tenants of my buildings could rise up and k-ll me, if they wanted, doesn't change the absolute fact that I own the buildings. And, in the vast majority of cases, if I'm taken out, or pass away, my property will go to my heir, just like with any other property ownership. Nothing you're going on about refutes that fact.
