"What do you think?"
I think anyone who worships Terry Pratchett probably does not really understand the principles I'm talking about.
For example, how does one, "conserve the fish numbers," except by failing to fish? And these "Austarlian {sic} fisermen are "voluntarily" limiting their fishing. How environmental. And for their PC environmentalism, the Australian government thugs may "board" uninvited other people's fishing boats, simply because they do not agree with the Australian fisherman's view of how fishing ought to be done.
Therefore protectionism by force is OK to prevent, the "undisciplined ignorant wholesale takes," which means you believe it is alright to use force to prevent people from being undisciplined and ignorant, right?
Well, what can one expect of someone whose principles are learned from Terry Pratchett.
"So can I come and run some sheep on your property, since you cannot own your area."
This may be difficult for you, but real estate and the sea are a bit different. What I said was, "no one owns or has a right to control by force anything they have not earned." When someone works (earns) or buys real estate (with money they have earned) that gives them the right to control it entirely.
Thank you for the comments. You think, apparently governments sometimes have a right to initiate force; I dont.

Well Hank, I don't think governments or anyone else has any right to initiate the use of force, and that isn't what I was saying.
I was talking about governments protecting the people who pay taxes to be protected from incursion by invading peoples.
And the restriction on over fishing wasn't "environmental" but in order to make sure there would be plenty of fish left to keep providing the industry and their consumers with a product.
I don't understand your comments about Terry Pratchet.
I neither worship, nor have I learned anything from him from nor anyone else. I just try to think things out for myself.
Pratchett, like a number of other things in life, just provide some lighthearted amusement. I'm sorry you've misunderstood.
