nagel, libertarianism without foundations (1975)
(137) Nozick offers no foundations for his defense of what he deems fundamental rights (to property, etc.). [right, they absolutely beg this foundation]
(140-141) Nozcik scales up from micro-inter-personal interactions to macro-generalizations about the world (a logically illegitimate technique, because a whole host of considerations are introduced)
(142) 'benefit to others, for Nozick, can never outweigh the cost to oneself [Nagel rightly insisting this is outrageous. millions starving can be Pareto optimal, which is an absurd def of justice]
(148) Nagel arguing, though, that the arbitrariness of inequality is not sufficient grounds to object to it [I disagree. provided we begin with our bare-bones premise]
