the reason why Somalia isn't Anarchy/Libertirism (like the "model") is the same as why Cuba isn't socialism: because they are stupid utopias which ignore totaly the nature of humans.
this is the point i've tried to make, but anarchists always retort with a "but government is that way too!"
You both miss the point: some people like self-governance, some people don't. The only point of this article is to force one group (wouldn't you know it, just happens to be the anarchists) to follow another (and boy, what a coincidence: people who prefer hierarchies! This is going in my book as "rarest journalistic pursuits ever.") I realize you two haven't spent any time studying anarchism, which makes sense, because it doesn't interest you; this doesn't bother me. What bothers me is that you still operate under the belief that there can only be one way the world is run. This is as silly as the belief that there can only be one religion, or only one football team, or only one fast food chain; what these three things have in common, that methods of government lack, is the fact that nobody is forcing you to root for the Packers.
