Quoth Jakub Bozydar Wisniewski at Strike-the-Root.
Insofar as left-anarchism regards a hierarchy stretching from the owner of a non-state-subsidized company to its lowest paid employee as inherently oppressive and hence suitable for forcible liquidation, its followers are indistinguishable from ordinary statists, whose final argument is always the use of their truncheon… it is very difficult to conceive of these outright opponents of private property rights and natural inequalities as reliable advocates for liberty.
I can’t find an argument in that paragraph, so I’ll make one up.
The pivot point is the word *employee* as it is a term for order.
That is, a position that is naturally *under* someone else.
It shouldn’t be that way.
All producers should be recognized as equal but that can’t happen in the standard employer-employee relationship.
Contrast that with the role of sub-contractor where everyone is equal.
The primary issue is that employees only have one primary entity to derive income from but sub-contractors have many, thus if one gets too big for his britches its not a huge disaster to tell him to stick it sideways.
employee: one that places all of his financial eggs in one basket then lets any hold asshole carry it.
sub-contractor: one that places his financial eggs in many baskets and chooses whom might carry one or more of them occasionally.
