I'm a right-libertarian. I believe property rights are natural rights, and their enforcement is the responsibility of the individuals who hold property. I believe liberty is also a natural right, and people own themselves. I believe state structures are artificial and require justification that they do not have, and it becomes more apparent as we decentralize technologically and interact without barriers because of technology. I believe that all individuals are capable of obtaining power in a free, decentralized environment and can compete with centralized entities through voluntary interactions with others. If I were to be more pragmatic though, and argue from utilitarian perspective, I believe more freedom - in all areas - will maximize the utility of the parts (individuals) and the collective, but as an individualist I am only concerned about the parts and my concern for the collective derives from that.
