state (you have no govt), at least in the manner we have now, whereas a Laissez Faire state could enforce it (you have limited govt). That says nothing about whether IP should exist in current form or at all, simply that it *could* exist under LF.
[other stuff deleted] Ok, so you're talking out of both sides of your mouth then. On one hand you speak of a free-market (vis-a-vis Laissez Faire) and then in the same breath, with not even a blink of an eye, you speak of limited government. You can't have your cake and eat it too. Sorry. This is gibberish. ____________________________________________________________________ The seeker is a finder.
