The author Henry Binswanger's personal statement:
>I defend laissez-faire capitalism, using Ayn Rand's Objectivism.
Why not keep an open mind? This sort of personal statement seems more apt for a religious proselytiser than a Philosopher.
Anyway, the article is not worth reading, just a political polemic without any worthwhile thought about the actual issue he raises, what effect will a cryptocurrency have on tax enforcement?
- lake99 13y agoRight, because anyone who agrees with anything in Objectivism must be a polemicist. Your question is like reading an article by someone advocating the end of slavery, and you ask, "but who is going to do my work for me then?" Perhaps you won't realize how apt my comparison is until you read at least this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxation_as_slavery http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxation_as_slavery I hope you realize that as long as a government has a monopoly on money, they don't need to tax you at all.
