I am in favor of anarcho-capitalism. One merely has to look at the
current space programs. The one by NASA is in a deadlock. NASA announced
that it would send the next manned mission to the moon in 2020. Why so
late? If they were already up there, which is highly doubtful
(especially considering the convenient "accident" of NASA
having lost all original film footage of the "moon" [studio]
missions recently), why does it take them so long to go there again?
This is ridiculous. Every time a space shuttle explodes, NASA halts its
missions because of all the bullshit melodrama. This is for sissies!
Every astronaut that dies is a hero to the sacred cause of space
colonization. To honor the dead astronauts, they should send a mission
again right away instead of stalling. HAIL KOSMONAUTUS! Forget NASA if
we ever want to get anywhere near true planet colonization and
terraforming! Anarcho-capitalism can help true visionaries realize their
own space programs. Without restrictions from the state, private
investors can launch their own rockets and space ships. If profit is the
incentive, then capitalists will use all means at their disposal to send
men into space. If one man is lost in the process, the next one will be
already in line, if only to make a quick buck. And that is a good thing.
The White race has profited from capitalism over millennia. The East
India Company's rule over India was essentially the rule of an anarcho-capitalist
organization as the company did not have to answer to any government. It
set up its own army and a governing structure based on profit-making
principles. This is how several hundred thousand Englishmen were able to
rule over 400 million Indians. The New World was conquered and
exploited, for the benefit of the White race, because of a
profit-motivated quest to discover new natural resources (especially
gold). Man is selfish by nature, especially the White man who,
throughout history, has always resisted being submerged into any kind of
collective system (be it Communism or Fascism). This individualist and
egotist nature of the White man can be viewed as a positive trait if one
takes into consideration that through the selfish drive of a few
capitalists and entrepreneurs the whole of the White race can ultimately
benefit.
I am in favor of any kind of system (economical or ideological) that
promotes the welfare of our race. In this sense, I am both a socialist
and a capitalist. Today, capitalism is more feasible for our
aspirations. Yesterday, socialism was acceptable because it supported
the imperial nature of the USSR which was essentially pro-European in
its design. Of course, a completely anarcho-capitalist society would be
taken over by capitalists. But does this have to be a bad thing? I would
say no since competition always produces better results. This is true in
an economical sense, but might also be true on a political plane. Right
now, only the state is allowed to run certain kinds of services, such as
security and military services. If these two areas where privatized,
competition would produce a better army and more efficient security.
Also, if the state would wither away, competition would result in more
efficient systems of running a society.
Part II
NASA, the most important space agency in
the world, is not doing anything to promote active space colonization.
What have they achieved so far in this regard? Almost nothing! Why do
they want to go back to the moon? And why will it take so long? Why do
they not send people to Mars as soon as possible? NASA is wasting time
and money. A capitalist corporation, not an individual capitalist, could
plan and execute a manned mission to other planets more efficiently than
NASA, simply because a capitalist corporation would not waste money
since it is profit-driven. A capitalist corporation could finance a
space project that would last for several generations if the perceived
end results were worth the investment and the effort. The state is too
much concerned with issues of safety and too bogged down in endless
"planning stages." A capitalist enterprise can brush aside
those hindrances and offer monetary incentives to volunteers. For the
right amount of money, any volunteer would risk his or her life. If a
corporation benefits from space missions, the race will benefit since
the drive for expansion and the lust for power are the nuclei of
European capitalism and the genetic makeup of Aryan mankind.
Compared to feudalism, capitalism is progressive. Compared to
capitalism, socialism is progressive. Capitalism which is lorded over by
the state is regressive as it cannot totally fulfill its role as a
generator of human progress. A civilization can only be propelled into
the technocratic age through an adamant application of all available
resources into the establishment of a sound and advanced space program.
Without a space program, the White race will not be able to fulfill its
role of the ever expansionist subspecies that it is. Anarcho-capitalism
would enable individual capitalists to use their geniuses and financial
resources to take men into space, without being obstructed to do so by
the repressive state. Different individual capitalists have different
incentives to participate in the space race. Whatever their reasons may
be, through their individual effort they contribute to the collective
Faustian drive of White mankind. Since state-controlled capitalism is in
league with high finance, it is not fully dedicated to exploiting all
possibilities of space colonization. State-controlled capitalism does
not see any large financial gains in such an endeavor. Individual
capitalists, however, have several reasons to take steps to leave Terra,
some of the reasons having visionary undertones.
Of course, a Communist state would be best suited for space
colonization. This has been proven with the Soviet Union which sent the
first satellite (Sputnik) and the first man (Yuri Gagarin) into space. A
Communist state is not interested in financial gains but only in
progress. As opposed to a capitalist state, a Communist state encourages
talented individuals to contribute to the collective effort to realize
the Promethean directive. As opposed to a capitalist state, a Communist
state lends active support to individuals who are willing to use their
skills for the good of the people. Hence, in a Communist society, there
would be no need for individual capitalists to realize space projects.
After all, these same individuals would be co-opted by the benevolent
state. Communism equals materialized visions!
