Never quite sure what to make of it.  

> Some market anarchists label their views as “[[anarcho-capitalism]],” while others prefer to identify with “anti-capitalism” or “libertarian socialism.” Still others reject both the labels “capitalism” and “socialism” as too hopelessly distorted in the public consciousness to be used meaningfully in reference to what they advocate.
