ancap is shit

markets are efficient, but at the end of the day youre selling humanity short. its never pareto efficient to achieve greatness, and you cant move beyond pareto efficiency without intervening actors (a state).

so what if peoples preferences dont favor great art? i refuse to let great men be restrained by the base desires and mediocrity of their peers.

at least the soviet union was capable of producing great art.
