What if your interpretation of the logical implication of private property rights is different? For example, one could take the view that tenet behind private property of getting the positive and negative fruits of your labor implies that firms must be worker coops. In this view, capitalism is ruled out by libertarian legal theory's prohibition on contracts that alienate responsibility for the results of one's actions.

What about geolibertarians? @libertarian

Sure, why not!

I don't see private property as essential for libertarianism, only a foundation in the Non-Aggression Principle. As long as you can defend it in the context of non-aggression, it fits.
