Like I said, I'd just rather pay taxes and get some generally consistent and mostly guaranteed infrastructure without little corporate and private wars being waged all around me, and know that most all streets are public and subject to a consistent set of laws, even if it is inefficient, because it's run by a government.
Gotta love it. You idiots pose a "but wait, what's to stop..." And then we tell you that it wouldn't be cost effective, and here's why:... and then you use THAT to say you'd rather not live there!
Hey, What's to stop a rival
gang government from invading your turf and taking over your capitol, making you it's bitch?
"The Army, of course. It's a shell defense, and most of our troops are overseas, killing brown people, and they force us to pay for it, but it stops them, yup yup, it sure does."
Whoa, they force you to pay for it? And
aren't obliged to protect you? Fuck that! I'd rather pay my security company, thanks.
Works both ways.
