Let's say I discover oil on my property here. Should I be able to let the side effects drain down into my neighbors pond? Shouldn't he be able to recover any damages I might cause, including recovering proveable reduction in property values? No, of course not. There's a method to handle that.
*Nice that you don't need police. If we got rid of them, you would.

*So, you feel that if America did not have military, we would still be invincible?

*I'd agree that the corporate form of business is a responsibility-dodge. With that liability back in place, stockholders would be placing their homes in jeopardy by investing? What would happen to commerce in that event?
Also, you seem to be suggesting that we replace regulation by gearing up the legal industry. I guess you feel we don't have enough attorneys and lawsuits as it sits?
