All great points, I fully agree.

I'd heard of Xeer law but shamefully haven't gotten a chance to read up on it yet. Thanks for the book recommendation.

When you get down to it, any worthwhile set of laws is just an exercise in writing down our built-in feelings of morality. Voluntaryism is the best such set of morals I know of and I'd think one day we'll see a whole, flushed-out legal system based upon it.
