When is there Violence?
#economy #totalitarianism #society
There is a clear distinction between the market and violence. There are two ways to satisfy wants. Either by voluntary exchange or violent expropriation. The first is the economic means, the second is the political means. It was first described as this by Franz Oppenheimer. One who intervenes with the economic means is an invader of those freely acting. As Menken noted, “one who preaches doctrines he knows to be untrue to men he knows to be idiots…one who listens to what these idiots have to say and then pretends that he believes it himself.”
Under the economic means, nobody rules anybody. Under the political means, few are the rulers and many are the ruled. In other words, few are the masters and many are the slaves. If people are freely acting, social utility will be maximized. The use of the political means will reduce social utility. It is impossible that it can be raised or even remain the same. Under the economic means, people operate in perfect harmony with everyone else. No one is harmed under the economic means.
