{{Quote|
quote="Socioeconomic equality and legal equality both fall short of the radicalism of Lockean equality. For neither of those forms of equality calls into question the authority of those who administer the legal system. … Both forms of equality call upon that power structure to do certain things; but in so doing, they both assume, and indeed require, an inequality in authority between those who administer the legal framework and everybody else."

'''Left-Rothbardianism''', also called '''Left-Voluntaryism''', is an economically variable to right-wing and culturally ambiguous anarchist ideology that is the child of [[File:Anmark2.png]] [[Left-Wing Market Anarchism|Left-wing Market Anarchism]] and [[File:Ancapf.png]] [[Anarcho-Capitalism]].

It believes in a [[File:NeoLocke.png]] [[Propertarianism|Neo-Lockean homesteading principle]].<ref>[https://archive.org/details/ethicsofliberty00roth The Ethics of Liberty]</ref>
The principle states that property can only be owned by two means: direct trade from the past owner or applying labor to unowned land. It uses this principle to found its claim on the confiscation of property from private owners.<ref>[https://www.panarchy.org/rothbard/confiscation.html Confiscation and the Homestead Principle by Murray Rothbard (1969)] Panarchy.org</ref> This principle is most clearly seen where it states that applying your labor to unowned property (Applying it to 'ill-gotten property') leads to legitimate ownership of said property.

Despite the [[File:Soc-h.png]] [[Socialism|Left-]] prefix of the name this ideology, which could make some people think this is a socialist ideology, it heavily advocates for the respect of private property<ref>Lora, Ronald; Longton, Henry (1999). ''The Conservative Press in Twentieth-Century America''. Greenwood Press. p. 369.</ref> as a natural right that derives from the right of self-ownership, but they don't see property as legitimate if its a derivative of coercion, which includes, if the property derives from [[File:Corp.png]] [[Corporatocracy|state benefits]].

==Beliefs==
It is a synthesis of [[File:Ancapf.png]] [[Anarcho-Capitalism|Rothbardian Anarcho-Capitalism]] and [[File:Anmark2.png]] [[Left-Wing Market Anarchism|Left-Market Anarchism]], that is, adopting Leftist rhetoric and applying certain principles ([[File:Clib.png]] [[Classical Liberalism|The Lockean Homestead Principle]], for example) to create concepts agreeable to said left sector while still maintaining an Anarcho-Capitalist framework and advocating for the exact same society.
It also supports workers cooperatives as a viable option for the disbandance of the state (As stated before).

The difference between the [[File:Clib.png]] [[Classical Liberalism|Classical homesteading principle]] and the [[File:NeoLocke.png]] [[Propertarianism|Neo-Lockean principle]] is that the first one also accepts the Lockean proviso as legitimate, which states that the homesteading principle only applies as long as there is enough and of the same quality for everybody else, while the Neo-Lockean principle rejects this proviso.

They oppose the common consensus that [[File:Regulationism.png]] [[Regulationism|government regulation]] helps to eliminate or mitigate oppression by big corporations, saying that furthermore the state is the source of the problem it says to solve.
It also opposes the view of the [[File:Corp.png]] [[Corporatocracy|Gilded Age]] as a [[File:Lfree.png]] Laissez-Faire period where the state didn't have interference and where the free market ran the world, saying that this time was marked by huge state privilege to selected capital owners and corporations. This state benefits came in shapes such as subsidies, tax-breaks, or even direct monopolies on certain industries,<ref>Kolko, Gabriel (1977). ''The Triumph of Conservatism: A Reinterpretation of American History, 1900–1916''. New York: Free.</ref> although there indeed were certain big businesses at the time which didn't get privileges from the government.

It believes that these corporations which were benefited from the state with more or less largesse should be allowed to be seized by their workers or third parties to eliminate state benefits to companies.<ref name="A">[https://www.panarchy.org/rothbard/confiscation.html Confiscation and the Homestead Principle by Murray Rothbard (1969)] Panarchy.org</ref>

===Cases of legitimate confiscation of property===
Rothbard vetoed privatization through auctions of government properties in predominantly public-owned countries because ordinary citizens could not afford to buy them, and this measure amounted to nothing more than a public privatization of state property by bureaucrats. It justifies the seizure of "private" property through the homestead principle, and since said property is derived from theft (Subsidies funded by taxes) it isn't legitimately owned, and thus the rightful onwers are the ones who apply the labor to said illegitimate property.
Property previously stolen by the government legitimizes the seizure of this property. For example, if the state built a university with tax payers' money, applying the homesteading principle, it is rightfully the property of those who had been stolen, but since it's not easy to identify who's the university going to be given to, since it's not stolen from a precise individual, then it's rightfully property of the workers who by mixing their labor with the facilities have claimed this illegitimate property. It is, however, a prime consideration to make that although according to the homestead principle they are supposed to be rightfully property of the workers who apply their labor they are, to some extent, beneficiaries of the government, thus the second group which can be selectable for this ownership are the students themselves who have had lost their money paying for the maintainance of this ill-gotten property and the payment of the faculty.

This principle can be applied similarly for companies which have benefited from the robbery directly, Rothbard, in an article,<ref name="A"/> lists Columbia University for the case, which gets 2/3 of its income from the state. This also legitimizes the seizure of them by its workers, since a big part of the benefit of them comes from stolen property it is only just that, still applying the homestead principle, they are seized by the workers. This slow disbandance of the state would lead to a stateless society led by market forces and private property.

==History==
This ideology, similar to [[File:Paleolib.png]] [[Paleolibertarianism]], which was a synthesis made by Rothbard with [[File:Plcn2.png]] [[Paleoconservatism|Paleoconservatives]], is a synthesis of the works done by Rothbard along with [[File:Anmark2.png]] [[Left-Wing Market Anarchism|Left-Market Libertarians and Anarchists]], such as [[w:Ronald_Radosh|Ronald Radosh]]<ref>Rothbard; Murray; Radosh, Ronald, eds. (1972). ''A New History of Leviathan: Essays on the Rise of the American Corporate State''. New York: Dutton.</ref> and [[w:Karl_Hess|Karl Hess]].<ref>Hess, Karl (1975). ''Dear America''. New York: Morrow.</ref> This alliance with these Left-Market Anarchists (Ronald Radosh having even been a Marxist) was due to Rothbard having long embraced a reading of American history that emphasized the role of elite privilege in shaping legal and political institutions, this, of course, was naturally agreeable to many on the left which and came increasingly handy in the 1960s to seek alliances with them. This alliance with this left sector layed the path of modern Left Market Anarchism<ref>[https://mises.org/library/rothbards-left-and-right-forty-years-later Long, Roderick T. (4 August 2006). "Rothbard's 'Left and Right': Forty Years Later". Rothbard Memorial Lecture, Austrian Scholars Conference 2006. Mises Institute. Retrieved 10 January 2020.]</ref> and also was used to strengthen ties with other Libertarian sectors. Eventually, though, Rothbard broke with the left and ended up allying with the growing [[File:Plcn2.png]] [[Paleoconservatism|Paleoconservative movement]], as stated before.<ref>Doherty, Brian (2007). ''Radicals for Capitalism: A Freewheeling History of the Modern American Libertarian Movement''. New York: Public Affairs. pp. 562–565.</ref><ref>Raimondo, Justin (2001). ''An Enemy of the State: The Life of Murray N. Rothbard''. Amherst, New York: Prometheus. pp. 277–278.</ref>

==Personality==
Left-Rothbardianism behaves like someone who you are sure is economically left-wing because of the way they talk but turns out to be really economically far-right. Although while being a capitalist, he cares about workers. He said some unhinged things that can be incredibly based most of the times. He hates paleolibertarians for destroyed [[Anarcho-Capitalism|Rothbard's]] alliance with [[Left-Wing Market Anarchism|the New Left.]]

==How to Draw==
{{Flag|Leftroth_flag.svg}}
LeftRoth's Design is the combination of the Anarcho-Capitalist flag with a Red Star.

#Draw a ball with eyes
#Draw a black, increasing diagonal line.
#Fill top gold, bottom black
#In the middle draw a red star.

And you're done.

*[[File:Dengf.png]] [[Dengism]] - A fellow capcom, but why the authoritarianism? Also, Xi Jinping is pretty awful.
*[[File:Mao.png]] [[Maoism]] - In modern market economy China, there are still some villages practicing public ownership. Such as Huaxi village in Suzhou and Nanjie village in Henan. But these villages are now in serious decline because of the misstrategy of the village government.
*[[File:Paleolib.png]] [[Paleolibertarianism]] - Fellow Rothbard synthesis, but why would you synthesise with [[File:Plcn2.png]] [[Paleoconservatism]]? <s> Also, Rothbard joining up with the [[File:Plcn2.png]] [[Paleoconservatism|Paleocons]] meant I fell apart </s>
