Not South Bend. . .this was a place in West Virginia. And yes, when the
factory went worker-owned, it went under because of foreign comp. It was
later re-opened, but only after being bought out by some Dutch firm, and
then of course, 100's of workers were fired.

Nah, this is just typical Marxist mumbo-jumbo BS.

No, anarcho-capitalism results in bigger and bigger business entities run
by fewer and fewer people. When few people make the big decisions, and
many people have no say whatsoever in those decisions, that dramatically
affect their lives, that's called a dictatorship, in my book.

While Marxism might be BS the collapse of the ussr shows how underneath it all capitalism is based on a black market economy as the seed for more legitimate enterprises.
probation in this country is/was the basis of the economy that i followed.

I thought it was think-tank pseudo-scholarly BS that sounds like
Marx. So you don't need no stinkin' theories, eh? :-)

How is a (big?) corporation the least bit anarchistic? Any
corporation requires a state for legal recognition, ie the policing
(!) of its limited liability and right to private (triple underline)
property.

What you're saying, to me, is it's all just garden-variety meat 'n'
potatoes (hee!) standard-issue growth capitalism, which HAS to
monopolize or become monolithic to survive. Not to mention
censorious coercive and paternalistic hierarchies, etc. (again)

;-)

Vive Proudhon, Property is Theft? And the hoardable nature of money
is parasitic?

I dig you baby, that it's all based on proto-whitecollar crime.
