    Lack of regulation can literally give capitalists inherent power over others; therefore, no, the definition you provided is not liberty. At least not for all; your “liberty” is only available to those who can afford it.

    I.E. the meme is far more accurate than your word vomit was.

      Hey, I didn’t make the definition. Don’t gaslight me like I’m providing some sort of opinion about it.

      In fact, I said the same thing you did to Captain Anarchy here earlier.

      It’s an explaination. With sources. Encouraging you to do your own light reading. If you’re unhappy with it, you’ll have to take that up with a few billion people over the course of 400 years and put your amendment forward somehow. You’ll also need to try convince the entire philosophy of libertarianism. Though as I already said—and obviously you never made it that far—these have been considerations for many many many many many years before you came along existing. Ever heard of Adam Smith? You would’ve if you spent the same time Googling instead of typing.
