RE: Anarchapulco Has Begun! And LiveStream for Anarchapulco & TDV Summit Is Now Available!
The state kills, imprisons, pollutes, steals, and all the while pretends to be morally upright. Somalia is NOT anarchist... But nonetheless, they are actually doing quite well for themselves without central authority. Somaliland may become the world's first completely paperless economy... An advancement made possible by the state of "anarchy" they are in.
Also, the government doesn't build any of the things you listed--they contract private companies to do so.
Certain greedy companies like google, apple, amazon and facebook are no better they steal from the people but not paying there taxes hidden there money. Having no government in any country is not good.
None of the companies that you listed steal from people. They sell people things in a voluntary context. Also, what the hell are you talking about? Not paying your taxes isn't theft! Not paying your taxes is preventing theft from occuring.
I want to actually ask you, not bait you or flame you, as someone who has liberetarian/anarchist leanings, who would pay private companies to maintain our infrastructure such as roads, sewers, etc in a condition of pure anarchy? If there was pure anarchy, do you suggest private companies making toll roads everywhere where there are roads? What would be the structure that would incentivize a private company to build a road? Would volunteers all across America be willing to volunteer to maintain the millions of miles of asphalt roads?
Because something is philosophically "voluntary" does not mean it was done for free, it simply means that it was done in an agreement where force or the threat of force were non-existent.
And to answer your question, if there were no governments and no taxes, then infrastructure would be built as needed, and not prescribed centrally by planners who do not understand the infrastructure needs of various areas. Furthermore, costs would be greatly reduced because of the introduction of competition (private cartels would not monopolizing gov't contracts). Finally, it would be foolish for a company to pour a bunch of money into building and maintaining roads that no one uses—and yet the federal government does that kind of shit with taxpayer money constantly, and doesn't even maintain the existing infrastructure when needed!
All the infrastructure should be auctioned off to the highest bidding companies in a crypto auction, with profits being burned as part of the "orderly dissolution of the federal government" as Adam Kokesh calls it.
