RE: From Baghdad to Pyongyang: Is war coming to your door next?
People will utilize the service because they have no other option for security.
Anyway, a pure monopoly and a government are not quite the same.
Government has the advantage of potentially resolving tyrannies by nonviolent political means. For all of statisms disadvantages, this capacity for political solutions is one advantage.
Also, I don't know if you believe in equal dignity among humans, but if you do then how does the anarchist system fit that belief? You're exchanging the system of 1 person / 1 vote, for a system of $1 / 1 vote.
When did I advocate voting/mob rule?
So you're not for democracy. That's fine. I'd like to see a system that works better.
What is a historical proof of concept for your theory of anarchy?
There are a few examples in history, and a plethora of modern ones, but that doesn't matter, because even with no examples, I would still be correct, as forcing a non-violent individual to do or pay for something involuntarily (no consent) they do not wish do (as is done when a majority outvotes a minority) in a democracy is obviously immoral.
Besides, your contention is that if it's not historically proven, it cannot be right. That's silly. The abolition of slavery was not "historically proven," either. Should people have required historical proof before ending it?
