I will now use right libertarian logic and see if those who profess to support it actually believe in it. Since I have seen libertarian rhetoric to the effect that nothing should be illegal if it doesn't involve obvious physical coercion, I will now argue (sarcastically) that I should be able to start a form of entertainment consisting of death matches between drug addicts. As long as I didn't force them to become drug addicts, if two addicts are so desperate for their next fix that they are willing to fight to the death for money, the one who dies "chose" the risk and essentially committed suicide (which, in libertarianism, is none of the government's business either). I should be allowed to pay them to go in cages and fight to the death and get a crowd of paying spectators to see it. I think such an "enterprise" could make a surprisingly high profit. Now if one truly follows right libertarian logic, I should not be penalized in any way for doing this. Of course, if you consider yourself a libertarian and you disagree, I have to ask... why? If you think this "business venture" should be illegal, in your answers I will show you why other libertarian ideas don't make sense either.

It's a silly idea, and it's likely one that people wouldn't be the least bit interested in. but if some nut wanted to have a death match between druggies, I personally don't care. Let them kill eachother off, humanity would be greatly enhanced if they do.

but surely you would be an accessory to murder by sponsoring such a competition. I think that Libertarians would say that you should be free to do what you like with your own life- that does not mean that you can assist, sponsor or speed the demise of another.

Of course, if you are a part of the corporate/ government , it would be perfectly acceptable to sponsor a death match between two embattled Islamic countries (say Iran and Iraq) willing to fight to the death, provide them both with ample weaponry and wait and to see which one prevails. This enterprise also provides amazingly high profits. Perhaps you think too small, Force!
