When Columbus came to the New World, he would disembark on an island, hide somewhere in the bushes, and mumble the legal formula of taking possession of the land in the name of the Spanish Crown. After that, the land would be considered Spain’s and the indigenous people who’d try to defend it would be considered treasonous. I don’t need to tell you what was done to them, do I?
This is exactly how the Russian-speaking scammers in Canada act. They sell tickets to what is supposed to be a meeting of entrepreneurs. They only accept credit card payments and insist that every attendee provide a separate credit card number. After everybody gets sufficiently drunk on free alcohol at the meeting, they mumble in passing that money will continue to be withdrawn from the credit cards until the attendees somehow signal their wish for the payments to stop. The scammers don’t belong to any specific company, don’t have a website, and are impossible to be located, so good luck finding them to communicate your wishes. When they disappear with your credit card number, you can just sit there and hope to God they don’t hand it over to their gangster brothers back in Russia.
People who believe it would be great to live in the era of wild capitalism are very stupid. I experienced the 100% unregulated capitalism, and our FSU countries are still living it. Let me tell you, it’s a very bad way to live. It’s scary, it’s dangerous, and unless you are a ruthless bandit, you don’t stand half a chance.

The idea that some people have is you should create a vacuum where there is no government and then see what comes along to fill it.

Stopping the craziness and chaos in America
Rebekah Anne Keegan Stevenson • 2 days ago
They are not causing chaos they are fighting it. Socialist medicine spoon fed to Americans by the federal government? Do you not see anything wrong with this? Not on drugs. Not rich. Just free and I like it that way. The bottom line is that if people ALL people would grab hold of HONOR and treat others with dignity, if we could just take back the sanctity of human life… everyone would be a lot better off. That is what the “firm religious believers” believe in. Small government! POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!! Give incentives and perks if you like to insurance companies and doctors who sacrifice their time and effort for less money to care for lower income families but to TAKE OVER health care??????? To people who understand the difference between democracy and socialism this is just too much. It is, IN FACT, the definition of chaos and the cool smug face of the socialist in the white house is just proof. The bottom line… the people who voted for him do not understand. I am still not sure he does. Socialism leads to communism which leads to dictatorship without exception.

Smart people use the mistakes of others to learn while stupid people insist on making their own mistakes.

Musteryou,
It’s no surprise that an “alternative medicine” website like Natural News would support anarcho-capitalism; they don’t need to worry about pesky regulations getting in the way of their ability to peddle snake oil.
