ParticipantThere is quite a bit of this around – so called market anarchism, Some of these free market anti capitalists get quite offended if you accidently call them anarchocapitalists. Ive been having a crack at them over on libcom recently. One guy pointed me in the direction of a mutualist blog and the mutualist journal. I have come across Kevin Carsons stuff at mutualist.org before. A curious mix of ideas. For instance Carsons sees merit in both the LTV and the subjective theory of value as well. and seeks to combine them. He’s quite hot on Marxian primitive accumulation theory too and at times sounds like a Marxist in his condemnation of capitalism. I wonder if the SPGB has done any stuff on modern day Mutualism a la Carsons and the Left Libertariuan crowd – as opposed to Proudhon

KeymasterWe clashed with Kevin (I’m tempted to call him Kit) Carson ten years ago on the WSM Forum. Here’s an example of his arguments against socialism (which also give some of our counter-arguments):http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/WSM_Forum/message/13851http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/WSM_Forum/message/14041http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/WSM_Forum/message/14090http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/WSM_Forum/message/14279I suppose we could review this new book if we can find a someone to read through pages and pages in praise of the market.

So perhaps he will correct himself here. I’ve emailed him a link to the Anarchist FAQ!I’m not holding my breath though!

KeymasterAre we sure this isn’t one of his (Charlie Veitch of the Love Police) spoof videos?As to Stefan Molyneux, there’s a good point-by-point refutation of this mad marketeer by Peter Joseph here.It’s 50 minutes but everything is there: refutation of the ideas that capitalism has or could exist without the state; that resources are finite and desires are infinite; that without prices, efficient resource allocation is impossible; that the calculation problem is insurmountable; etc. In fact, this is one of the best (if not the best) video refutation of the so-called “economic calculation argument” on the internet as well as putting the case for a money-free world of abundance and open access. And it’s been seen by over 68,000.
