...serious answers appreciated, but honestly, not expected.
Larry Libertarian owns a farm, Liberty Acres, that he runs alongside the scenic Liberty River in Liberty County. It's his property and he grows what he wants on it.
Lennie and Louie Libertarian buy the lot upriver. It's their property to do with what they want so they open a factory, LenLou's Liberty Lawn Furniture, making practical, affordable plastic furniture.
But PCB's from Lennie and Louie's factory are being dumped into the Liberty River and contaminating Larry's cropland.
Larry complains to Lennie and Louie but they say they can do what that want on their property and don't see why they should be put to the expense of cleaning up the PCB's. Since Liberty County of course has no EPA there is no agency Larry can complain to.
There IS a civil court in Libertyville, the Liberty County seat, so Larry takes his complaint there. But LenLou's Liberty Lawn Furniture employs over half the working household heads in Liberty County, and Larry loses on a split jury.
In a libertarian context, what recourse does Larry have in this situation?
