> However, I insist that you describe the low, or no, regulation regimes you have lived under (or visited for significant periods ... months/years). Seriously? So we can't ever discuss the way things should be without firsthand experience of living under those conditions? Scenario: You are a slave living in a mining pit. Each day you look up from your drudgery and see free people picnicking in the grass high on the edge of your pit. You turn to the man chained next to you and say, "I believe a world where we were free would be better than this one. Look at those people up there." He turns to you and says, "I insist that you describe the low / no slavery regimes you have lived under before we can debate the merits of your proposal." You stare incredulously at your fellow slave.
