Private Property Initiates Force

The cornerstone of radical libertarian thinking is the idea that private property does not initiate force. Consequently, the radical libertarian believes that he or she can simultaneously believe in private property while opposing the initiation of force. But since private property does in fact initiate force, radical libertarianism must either be rejected or at least be grounded on some other principle.

I want to make sure any readers see it. I consider the idea of the non-initiation of force to be the root of the problem of libertarian radicalism. All, or almost all, radical pronouncements flow from this idea.

I justified it in a previous month.
