Philosopher George Bernard Shaw initially had flirtations with individualist anarchism before coming to the conclusion that it was " the negation of socialism, and is, in fact, unsocialism carried as near to its logical conclusion as any sane man dare carry it.
" Shaw's argument was that even if wealth was initially distributed equally, the degree of laissez-faire advocated by Tucker would result in the distribution of wealth becoming unequal because it would permit private appropriation and accumulation.
According to academic Carlotta Anderson, American individualist anarchists accept that free competition results in unequal wealth distribution, but they " do not see that as an injustice.
" Tucker explained, " If I go through life free and rich, I shall not cry because my neighbor, equally free, is richer.
Liberty will ultimately make all men rich ; it will not make all men equally rich.
Authority may ( and may not ) make all men equally rich in purse ; it certainly will make them equally poor in all that makes life best worth living.
