Why is it their money? Your're starting at the wrong point in time friend.

You need mommy just as much.

E.g. Chad Ungabunga sees alphanumeric living on fertile soil with an attractive woman so he's going to bonk him over the head with a club and take his stuff because he's bigger and stronger.




It’s their money if you follow the “force is only justified in response to force” principle. They didn’t obtain their money by force, so you can’t take it by force from them.

I believe that principle should be enforced by the government, that’s the only thing I need mommy for. Given that you also believe in police, military and courts, on top of a bunch of other shit (like stopping consenting individuals from trading their own money), no I don’t need mommy “just as much”.
