Define 'carving' out, and how it differs from theft.

Are you saying we should not have complained about paying all those bonuses to finance company CEOs? That we should not regulate the market?

I think we saw where that got us.

Libertarian capitalists like to complain about government involvement, but the only reason that rich people are able to insulate themselves from the rest of the world, and delude themselves into thinking they aren't dependent on that world, is because the government provides a police force and jails to protect their "right" to private ownership. The "economic justice" you speak of is social injustice. We live in a world of limited space and resources - all the property horded is property made unavailable to others. As the Anarchist economist P.J. Proudhon said: "Property is theft."

There isn't enough for all of us to insulate ourselves from the world outside and pretend we aren't dependent on it. As the Anarchist economist P.J. Proudhon said: "property is theft."
