Arguments that #libraries are beneficial really don't have anything to do with the #consent argument against #taxation, so they are really quite uninteresting, and not at all even an argumentative response to the good professor. That being said, it's important to understand…
#Libraries are terribly underfunded, when they should be a top priority for civic spending. It is not inconsistent to be pro library funding and con taxation, if you argue for a #noncoercive yet still #compulsory financing source, i.e. Just Rent #LVT. Most libraries cannot…

Aside from the squabblings of #socialists and #capitalists while #feudalist rent-seekers laugh all the way to their fractional-reserve banks, one major, fundamental aspect of our economy which can't be addressed by analysis of #property is the consequences of the #factory system.
And for that, we turn to Ralph #Borsodi, who detailed the evils of the #factory system in his book, "This Ugly Civilization", in 1929, following on from "The Distribution Age", of 1927.

The #legitimacy of any form of #government is not and cannot be based upon #consent, but upon how well it protects the rights of those who refuse to consent.

Just blocked a whole slate of professional TERFs, assorted transphobes, and miscellaneous transmisiast miscreants. They are so boring, with their droning on about things they don't understand, especially the ones with PhDs. A doctorate is not proof against ignorance and fallacy.
The worst part of it is their egos are terribly inflated by the media platforms they've gained *precisely* because they attack people's humanity. Nothing sells like controversy, not even sex, but they take popularity as evidence of their superiority and bludgeon others with it.
