Lions of Liberty Podcast Ep. 35: Robert Murphy - Objections to Anarcho-Capitalism

In this episode of the Lions of Liberty Podcast, I welcome in economist Robert Murphy to discuss the concept of anarcho-capitalism, a private property society without a political state. Robert explains how and why he became interested in anarcho-capitalist theory, before we run through many common objections to anarcho-capitalism. As usual, I share my thoughts in the post-show rant!Check out Robert Murphy's blog, "Free Advice" at his website ConsultingByRPM. And be sure to check out his page attempting to goad Paul Krugman into a debate at KrugmanDebate.com.Discussed in the show: But Wouldn't Warlords Take Over? by Robert MurphyBooks by Robert Murphy:                                My attempt to break down the ideas of anarch0-capitalism can be found here. Remember, you can subscribe to the show via iTunes or the Stitcher Radio App, and you can even listen to a live stream every Friday night at 7PM EST on Daily Paul Radio! Miss an episode?
