Capital punishment

From The Austrian Economics Wiki, the global repository of classical-liberal thought

Capital punishment or the death penalty is the killing of a person as a penalty for a crime. Murray Rothbard proposed that a person specify in his will whether he would prefer that a person who murders him be executed.[1]
