“Well all of you are showing why both Communism and Libertarianism never worked out on a large scale.”
Libertarianism has no concrete definition. There’s no way of pointing to a time where Libertarianism was implemented as a type of government and failed. In that sense Communist organizations are more respectable since they have a cohesive ideology whereas the Libertarian party or any such organization doesn’t seem to have any idea what it believes.
“Not just cold it sounds evil”
Whatever wording you prefer. To see the government as not evil requires a lot of sticking your head in the sand. I don’t have a good answer to the child services kasheh, but it’s hard for me to believe that the best answer is to implement a system responsible for The Holocaust and every war throughout mankind’s history.
“not unlikely it is a certainty some people wouldn’t pay.”
Correct. You misunderstood. I was saying it’s unlikely that everyone wouldn’t pay. As long as some people in the building are paying or the building’s management, then the fire department would put it out. They wouldn’t let the entire building burn just because the fire started in a unit owned by someone who did not pay. By the way, a large potion of the country exists on volunteer fire departments. Hatzolah has been more effective at reaching emergencies quickly than government-funded EMTs. How can that be so? It’s almost like the government isn’t better at everything.
“Closer to an Anarchist.”
Correct, but I have my priorities. Some parts of government more urgently need to be dissolved than others.
“Im not big on arguments of authority”
I appreciate that, and I appreciate you not bringing down that pro-government mishnah in Pirkei Avos as an argument of authority as tempting as I’m sure that might be.
